More infoClass is in session in a 100-year-old Chinatown schoolhouse, and the lesson is how comprehensively steak frites and a glass of French red can make an ordinary Tuesday feel like a getaway. The menu is short and seasonal, a blessing after twenty minutes arguing about where to eat. No reservations for two, so arrive early, grab two bar stools, and count the wait as part of the date.
No reservations for two, so arrive early, claim a stool at the bar, and start the date with a glass of French red. When a table opens, the move is steak frites and the onion soup, with whatever the market handed the kitchen, budget close to two hours in a room cozy enough that you'll lean in regardless. You're in Victoria's Old Town when you leave, ideal for a slow wander.
