Donna mac is a go-to spot for locals who live in the
Beltline neighbourhood. It’s a contemporary restaurant
with an ever changing menu of comfort food favourites,
sharing plates, and delicious cocktails. Order an appetizer
of fried cauliflower, with whipped pimento, go for the
pork pappardelle, braised pork with cherry tomatoes,
ricotta, and peas, and finish it off with the gluten free
carrot cake. Local Tip: Come back for brunch at Donna
Mac on Saturday and Sunday for Vietnamese crepes,
gouda and porcini crullers, and sesame milk iced coffee.
Chef Jinhee Lee created JIn BaR, her dream restaurant
in a 105-year-old heritage building, to be all about great
food and a few drinks with a menu stacked with fried
chicken and pizza inspired by Korean flavours. Start with
a snack of crispy chicken skin and sauteed kimchi mac and
cheese, add an order of JIN BAR fried chicken, marinated
for 12 hours, or a Korean beef bulgogi pizza, with a
Korean-inspired cocktail to toast.
