    We were looking for something different in the Distillery District of Toronto. We'd never been to Cluny so we tried it. Bingo! Very nice place, it's a quite formal large beautiful space. I had the steak frites, my wife had the shore lunch (deep fried shrimp and fish, both from Newfoundland). We shared a bowl of what is probably the best french onion soup in the world. And the bread! Made in-house. Have it all!
