First thought: Wow, the portions are big!
Second thought: Yum!!
The White Brick Kitchen was our place of choice last Sat night. We wanted to go to a place that served comfort food but a little nicer than your usual greasy spoon. And, they definitely delivered on taste and service!
Known for serving an awesome brunch in a part of Toronto labeled "Koreatown", I was surprised that they were also open for dinner. We didn't have to wait for a table that night which was nice, especially since it has gotten considerably colder this weekend.
Mains
We shared 2 mains and added an extra side dish.
Half fried chicken with choice of side (our choice: the greens) - $17
Chicken was crispy, not overly battered, meat was moist (even the white meat)!
Lightly seasoned so if you're looking for something spicy, this is not it. If your looking for really good homestyle fried chicken, this is it!
Joe fries - $14
Huge plate of fries topped with sloppy joe beef brisket, sriracha mayo, tomatoes, and an egg.
Tasty, greasy, old-school sloppy joe flavour spiked with the sriracha mayo for added flavour.
Side order of Cider Slaw - $4.5
Beautifully balanced in terms of sour and sweet. It went very well with both our mains. Again, a large portion size which we loved!
Dessert
Sticky toffee pudding - $5
Before we ordered dinner, my friend was already thinking about the sticky toffee pudding, hence sharing 2 mains and a side between 3 people. So, we definitely had to order it and it was a decent portion size, not fancy but was a well made traditional sticky toffee pudding.
Lindt hot chocolate with whipped cream - $4
Hot chocolate on a cold night - sweet!
Service
Friendly and attentive, we didn't feel rushed. This may be because dinner is not as busy as brunch but our server was great nonetheless.
I would definitely recommend this place and although Koreatown has lots of great Korean food, this is worth the trek to this part of Toronto.
