    Luminosa was, in a word, luminous - from the warm wood decor, the lovely lighting, the careful table arrangements giving everyone a sense of intimacy to the amazing wait staff (shout out to Fran) and did I mention the food? Carefully prepared, beautifully plated and delicious. It felt like fine dining on a normal person's budget. I can't wait to go back!

    The views are beautiful, large windows showed off snowy weather while we ate. The signature grilled cheese and tomato soup were both wonderful. Our waitress was very attentive and pleasant. Overall a wonderful experience!

    Five of us celebrated Boxing Day at Posana and had a wonderful meal. Two members of our group are gluten intolerant and Posana provides a safe environment for them to eat without having to review every ingredient. It is also exemplary to have every option available to them without having to take a salad or the only protein based option. Kudos to the team for making us feel so welcome and a special thankyou to Teline (spelling?) for tolerating our English traditions.

    This was a girls weekend for us and we enjoyed the setting and location of District 42. We didn’t realize it was at a hotel and never once felt like we were in a hotel. Set in the middle of the city it was fun to have our first evening there!
