I always have found the restaurants on Roncesvalles with interesting and unique, so when my friend asked me if I wanted to do a group dinner at The Westerly at 413 Roncesvalles I just had to make sure I left work early so I could be there to check out this restaurant. we decided to share an appetizer which was small rice balls smothered in lobster bisque with little pieces of lobster. It was very rich and very tasteful, the rest of the lobster bisque that was in the rill bowl was just perfect for dipping the fresh bread in. For my main course I went with this appetizer Ricotta Gnudi, with wild mushrooms, white wine cream, spinach and truffle oil. The most perfect bit of food I have taken must have been this one with a piece of the gnudi a mushroom some spinach and then covered in the creamy truffle oil. The dish was very very rish so I am glad that I only ordered the appetizer size, and I had my friends try some of the food and they too loved it! The other girl that I was with at the dinner had The Arctic Char and her too, thoroughly enjoyed every bit of her dinner.
If you are ever in the area make sure you go to this restaurant, and if you are not in the area – make the drive there, it is well worth it!!
