Toast - a new restaurant in Durham downtown

Yesterday our Real-estate agent now friend treated us to a private showing of Harry Potter - Half Blood Prince. Not a great movie unless you are a teenager who is going through the angst of new love and social issues that go with those years.. since the movie was free I didn't mind it. If I had to pay my own good money I'd have hated it.

The good thing is after the movie we met Larry and went for lunch. Few ideas were tossed out as having been there done that. Wanted something new and Larry suggested 'Toast' in Durham downtown. A simple place with a limited but tasty menu.. is is something very original, or something out of this world - No. But it's a place that seems to serve good food with a twist at a very reasonable price. The menu is somewhat food network meets sandwich shop and is eclectic. For example I had a Pannini with Rapini, Italian sausage, Roasted garlic and some cheese, accompanied with a chilled tomato basil bread soup. Both dishes were awesome - the tomato soup was a great surprise - very fresh and very non canned tomato soup.

Will definitely go again.
