Artful Dodger Pub, Toronto, ON

I had supper this evening with my pal, Franca, at the Artful Dodger Pub (on Isabella Street, just east of Yonge Street).

We both had chicken fingers and fries … yum! 

It was fun to chat and catch up.

I joined Malcolm and Mary this afternoon at the Artful Dodger Pub (on Isabella Street, just east of Yonge Street).

Michael Brennan and his band were playing. He was backed by bassist John Switzer (Jane Siberry, Grievous Angels, Rita Chiarelli), drummer John Adames (Prairie Oyster, Stan Rogers, Rough Trade) and guitarist Steve Briggs (Russell deCarle, Bebop Cowboys, Sylvia Tyson). It was a fun time with good tunes!

Afterwards we had supper downstairs and I had butter chicken, which was good (though the chunks of red and green peppers were an odd addition).

After Gord and I left the Elmwood Spa, we walked up Yonge Street and had lunch at The Artful Dodger (Yonge/Isabella).

It was such a nice day so we sat on the patio.

Gord ordered plain wings and onion rings.  He said they were good.

I ordered Balti Butter Chicken.  There was a lot of food and it was okay.  It tasted more like a curried chicken than a butter chicken.

Gord and I had tickets for Dancing with Rage this evening.

We had supper beforehand at The Artful Dodger (Yonge/Isabella).

The pub was busy when we got there but we managed to snag a table on the second floor by a window.

My Keiths tasted yummy!

I ordered garlic cheese bread and honey garlic wings.  The garlic bread was $5 and I was expecting a small order ... it was huge.  I had a couple slices and ate the cheese off the rest.

My wings were good ... there were ten to the order ($10).   The honey garlic sauce was good ... I wish there'd been a bit more.  I'd order them again but would ask for extra sauce.

Gord ordered a burger and onion rings.  He enjoyed it and would get it again.

Though the pub was packed, service was good.

I had ordered a Captain Morgan dark rum and Diet Coke before we left.  I'm not sure what I was served but it wasn't Captain Morgan dark rum.  Our server checked with the bartender and confirmed that it was what I ordered.  But I know it wasn't ... though tasty, there was too much of a vanilla taste.
