This part of toen is currently booming right now. There are many restaurants 
Since moving into the area 2 years ago, over 20 eating and drinking 
establishments have poppped up with more on the way. There are mostly
Italian ones with my favourite about 5 minutes west, Grappa. Grappa is
definitely a cut above your average pasta place. You get complimentary olives
to start, oil and vinegar for your bread (butter on request), refills on 
espresso and cappucino and no plain spaghetti and tomato sauce entrees.
The most aesthetically pleasing place is Kalendar just around the corner 
from the theatre which has recently expanded. For a quick pesto slice go to
John's Pizzeria.

What was wrong with Tasca? I have always had great food and service at Tasca. 
I go there quite often.
