SARA SAYS...

No neon sign is needed to give Ultra a persona on spiky Queen Street. 99

Enter huge, carved wooden doors, through a courtyard patio to a lounge and dining room divided by shimmering fabrics tenting a row of tables.
Up a few steps, booths seat a half dozen of your best friends. The dining room, with its spectacular chandeliers ablaze with the light of fat
candles, is not just another pretty place and haven for the well dressed.

With a reputation as one of the hottest supper clubs in town, the draw here is two-fold. Foodies flock to Ultra to experience the complex dishes
of chef Chris Zielinski. With a nod to Asia, he creates an array of spectacular starters that include tempura shrimp cocktail and delectable
5-spice duck mushu style in a sesame crepe. Seared foie gras on anise bread with cloudberry preserves sets a luxurious tone. Servers go the
extra mile to attend caringly. Brilliant, seared veal tenderloin with handmade gnocchi, peeled cherry tomatoes on the plate is a favourite dish.
The menu changes with the seasons. Fresh fish entrées come with stunning accessories. Desserts, like romance, are made for sharing.

Later, tables disappear, the music is pumped up and the floor implodes with a sea of dancers who seem to know all the right moves.
The dinner crowd has gone, but the beat goes on.
