Patois represents the 6ix in Porter Airlines inflight magazine
This first big restaurant opening in the Dundas West block is breaking new ground in more ways than one, as the Jamaican-Chinese chef-owner Craig Wong (late of legendary Michelin-starred establishments like Alain Ducasse au Plaza Athénée and the Fat Duck) serves up a heretofore unexplored fusion: Asian-Caribbean soul food. That means family-style plates of churrasco rotisserie jerk chicken or prosperity jerk lobster, and a markedly buzzy atmosphere.
Patois might be named for a dialect, but it speaks the universal language of yum.
Le premier grand restaurant à ouvrir sur Dundas Ouest innove de plus d’une façon. Le chef chinois-jamaïcain Craig Wong (qui est passé par Alain Ducasse au Plaza Athénée et le Fat Duck) sert une cuisine fusion nouvelle : de la nourriture pour l’âme asiatico-antillaise. Cela
se traduit par des assiettes familiales de poulet jerk rôti à la churrasco ou de homard à la jerk dans une ambiance très tendance. Patois a beau tirer son nom d’un dialecte, il parle le langage universel des papilles.
