A new restaurant, a free afternoon, and an empty stomach. Say less. This past Thursday, I slipped into Harrington Street for lunch. I was drawn in by fire, flavour, and a very good feeling. Some lunches are forgettable. This one most certainly wasn’t. East City Grill is a restaurant built around fire, not as a gimmick, but as a philosophy. This flame-led concept is rooted in South African heritage, and layered with Asian flair. Where braai culture meets finesse. A thoughtful exploration of smoke, heat, and simplicity. Upon arrival, the sign immediately caught my eye. It was giving off a calm, confident, and unbothered energy. Just as I thought the sign was the main character, I took a peek inside only to see the most dramatic flight of stairs I’ve maybe ever seen. To be fair, I don’t generally go around admiring staircases, but this one was impressive. Walking up these red-lit, cinematic stairs felt like crossing into another mood entirely. Anticipation was slowly building with every step, and once I made it to the top, I was far from disappointed, quite the contrary actually.
