Cafe Taste

Last night we spent some time at Cafe Taste in Parkdale. I had read about it on tasteto and was interested in the wine and cheese bar in our neighborhood.
We liked it immediately upon entry: warm, cozy and relaxed, all the tables looked comfortable. It is a small room, with several tables and a bar area. The menu is a long list of dishes with cheese (YUM!) including salads, cheese plates and cheese fondue. We selected a cabernet franc (Calamus) and a cheese plate and the waiter told us he would choose our cheese based on the wine or wines we ordered.
The wines are ordered in 2 oz samples (for a couple of bucks, a good deal), by the glass, 1/2 liter and bottle. The wine selection included some good Ontario wines, and a few from California, France and the like.
We had a good time. The wine was good, as was the cheese, especially the havarti. We definitely want to go back.
