A place designed for intimate dinners with loved ones, or small groups of old friends, Linda’s is the neighbourhood restaurant you’d love to have in your own ’hood. Settle into the soft pink room and get stuck into some of Linda’s well-cooked comfort food. Salmon tartare with wasabi cream, salmon roe and potato pancakes $17 is not a bad place to begin before moving on to something like slow-roasted pork belly with spiced plums $28. Linda dotes on her desserts and you might forgo the entree for a warm ginger cake with butterscotch sauce and sticky-date icecream $12 — but then you may as well do both.
