For John Adams, composer of contemporary operas, this symphony night, why not a new restaurant near Roy Thomson Hall. Its Mediterranean angle is Turkish and the menu was mostly appetizers or bar food that proved perfect for a pre concert meal in a compact yet elegant setting. A skewer of fried mussels in a beer batter and generous tarator sauce launched us deliciously. Cantaloupe with raki brined feta served as a palette cleanser. The phyllo flakey borek was stuffed with spinach in a yogurt sauce. Attentive friendly service clinched a return to sample the rest of the menu ... and oblige John to climb the ladder to the top layer of wine bottles reaching almost to the high ceiling.
