Brut
Brut is such a unique and diverse restaurant. The menu showcases the skills of everyone on the team, I love that the entire team has contributed to the curation of the menu and it really shows in the food. There are so many creative flavour combinations and textures. Textures in food are a must for me. Not only is the food on point but the extensive and beautiful natural wine list is definitely worth indulging in. Camille Glass and her team are crushing it there.
Chef Sean’s go-to dishes:
- Beef Tartare, pickled mustard, oat crisp. Love the flavours and textures in this dish. Love the presentation—simple but refined.
- Pickled Tomato and Halloumi, Ginger. Very refreshing dish and I love Halloumi cheese so it is always a winner in my book.
- Szechuan Wings. Also a crowd-pleaser, the yuzu dressing combined with the Szechuan is a killer combo that goes well with the chargrilled wings.
