 An evening at Canoe is best begun at the bar---it's a big draw for suits from the surrounding towers during lunch and after work. The high-in-the-sky view from the 54th floor is spectacular, but there's more. Mixologist Jeff Sansone is one of the city's best bartenders, and his creations have included a caramel apple daiquiri made with Bacardi 8 Year Old Rum, Butter Ripple Schnapps, apple cider, lemon and caramel. The modern Yabu Pushelberg-designed dining room on two levels maximizes the sight lines to the lake and city glittering below. (Coveted window seats need advance booking.) Artist Stephen Corner designed distinct tableware for the restaurant, including the impressive seafood platter that presents the raw bar selection. The personable and dedicated chef Anthony Walsh and chef de cuisine Tom Brodi oversee the open kitchen. The five-item "Taste Canoe" menu and à la carte dishes highlight some of Canada's best products, such as Oyster Boy's finest, La Ferme foie gras, Yarmouth lobster, Springbank bison and St. Canut Farms' organic suckling pig. Conclude your epicurean experience with an inventive dessert or a few Canadian cheeses---we preferred the Thornloe Stilton. By-the-glass wine pairings are well matched to the dishes. Sommelier William Predhomme curates the comprehensive wine list, which features a fine selection of locally produced wines such as the 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon from The Foreign Affair.
