Every once in a while a new restaurant comes along that try and do something really innovative, interesting and different. Devon Latte and Lucas Johnston have done that with Nero Tondo, a very small little place in deep east Van, on a block known for great little spots. Now for what it is lacking in size, it makes up for in the enormity of its hospitality. Although this podcast was recorded before I ate there, my only regret is not eating there sooner.
