If last week’s Twitter rumour that Greg Couillard might be making a Toronto comeback was an unbearable tease, brief satiety will be found tonight at Kensington Market’s Burger Bar, when the veteran chef takes over the kitchen to offer up some of the fare he’s been cooking at Chili Bang Bar in Mexico.
On offer will be some spot prawn and jicama tacos, Couillard’s award winning chili and a selection of Mexican tapas. Meanwhile, Burger Bar’s owner, Brock Shepherd, will be mixing up cocktails like blackberry mojitos, Clase Azul margaritas and more (this would also probably be a good time to check out Shepherd’s Augusta Ale if you haven’t already).
Reservations will be limited to keep the door open for drop-ins, and if it’s a full house, it’s not like Kensington Market is lacking in other Mexican and Latin-inspired dining options anyway.
