    This was our second time having dinner at Fresh and our server was the lovely and sweet Vanessa. We were having dinner here just before heading to the Sebastian Maniscalco show at Scotia Bank Arena and our food came in record time which was perfect because we had plenty of time to enjoy our food instead of rushing to get to the show. My wife was impressed with the dessert selection because it had no refined sugar so we ordered a slice of the carrot cake to share which never ever happens. It was absolutely delicious.
