Arancini
Jenn C.

Had the pleasure of dining at Evoo during our one week visit to St. John's. We ordered the following dishes: 1. EVOO Arancini - This was my favourite dish. It was my first time eating arancini. Being a fan of risotto and deep-fried food, these tickled my taste buds and satisfied my tummy. 2. Calamari Fritti - Crunchy, fluffy and light - these had the perfect size and breading. However, the squid flavour was a bit bland compared to other calamari that we sampled. 3. Seafood Risotto - Very flavourful and with an abundant serving of seafood. 4. Lamb Shank Ossobucco - I love ossobucco and anything lamb-related so when this arrived, I was so excited. However, this dish was disappointingly tough. 5. Authentic Italian Gelato (Pistacchio and Hazelnut) - 6. Zeppoli - Interesting dessert that reminded me of a cross between churros and the Chinese donuts 7. Tiramisu - My favorite dessert of the bunch and it's true to how tiramisu should taste. Highly recommend getting this one.

Travelling Foodie Eats: Lamb Shank Ossobucco

Evoo In The Courtyard is a Mediterranean inspired restaurant located in the courtyard of the historic Murray Premises Hotel, where One11 Chophouse used to be at. The interior has a nice rustic ambiance. It feels like you are in a cottage with stone walls and wooden beams. APPETIZERS: 1. EVOO Arancini ($8) - crispy risotto croquette with ox tail, peas, wild mushroom and mozzarella, pomodoro sauce, Grana Padano This blew my mind! I was wondering why I never had arancini before when it's like the most DUH thing for me to love - deep fried and risotto. You get 3 big pieces for $8 which is good to share since it can be quite heavy. 2. Calamari Fritti ($12) - corn flour fried squid, tzatziki, lemon I'm a big fan of calamari so I can be a little picky. The squid itself didn't have the strong squid taste that I look for in calamari. What it lacked in the squid taste for me, it made up with the herbs and spices used in the calamari which still made it enjoyable. ENTREES: 1. Seafood Risotto ($24) - arborio rice, mussels, squid, cod, cold water shrimp, saffron tomato sauce Really enjoyed the risotto. It was just swimming in fresh and delicious seafood. One thing I wished though is they used cream sauce instead of tomato sauce. I think cream sauce compliments seafood better since the seafood flavour sticks to the cream. And also, I'm not a big fan of tomato! One great thing is the rice still had the seafood flavour in it. 2. Lamb Shank Ossobucco ($24) - creamy polenta, Sicilian peperonata, kale Unfortunately, this would've been an amazing dish had the lamb shank been fall-of-the-bone. The creamy polenta was really good and was a good mix with the lamb shank. DESSERTS: 1. Authentic Italian Gelato (One scoop $4) - made by Yolande Modica - Pistacchio and Hazelnut Unfortunately, I didn't find the gelato to be creamy for a gelato. It was quick to melt as well while we were taking photos when it wasn't even hot inside the restaurant. Both flavours we ordered do not have the strong nut flavour that it should have. It was actually quite sweet instead of nutty. 2. Zeppoli ($8) - Italian style donuts dusted with cinnamon suger served with nutella First time having Zeppoli. These Italian donuts were baked fresh - crunch on the outside, and moist and chewy on the inside. It went so well with the melted Nutella. 3. Tiramisu ($9) - layers of mascarpone cream with coffee & Frangelico soaked lady fingers I'm a big sucker for tiramisu. This was a delicious and refreshing tiramius! The only issue I find is the ratio of cream is way more than the lady fingers.

This is solely a review on the course restaurant "Nineteen (XIX) Restaurant"…read more I dined here for the first time this evening as was blown away. Appetizers: - Mixed Green salad with pecans, cranberries, goat cheese with a maple vinaigrette was fantastic. Very light and refreshing. - Sweet potato soup with maple creme frache. Came with two warm rolls as well. The soup has just a hint of sweetness from the maple creme frache that really gives it a distinctive taste. Would highly recommend. Mains: - Blackened Salmon - Chicken supreme in a red wine sauce Both came with a side of vegetables and breaded Newfoundland style Gnocchi. The Gnocchi was a highlight for me. This style of Gnocchi is basically just a small piece of 'savoury Newfoundland style dressing", the same type you'd have with Christmas dinner, but locked into a breaded coating. It's phenomenal. Both the chicken and salmon were cooked perfectly. The salmon's tartar sauce and the chicken's wine sauce were both top notch. Dessert: - Apple Pie with Streusel Topping - Chocolate Pot de Creme with raspberries Both fantastic desserts. The Pot de creme was a delicious and rich chocolate with a velvety texture that paired perfectly with the raspberries. The Apple pie was so visually impressive. A generous serving size and very moist. Would have liked the crust (on bottom) to be a little more firm for my liking, but other than that it was pretty well perfect. * Overall, I can't recommend this place enough. Fantastic work from the chef at Nineteen and we will be back again in the future.*
