RuilinPatria is Spanish, meaning motherland or hometown. This is a Spanish restaurant that opens at 5:00 pm every day, which seems to add to the nostalgia in the night. It was once rated as one of the top ten restaurants in Toronto. It has high-end decoration, imported cheese, homemade bread and wine.

The seafood rice paella patria was very filling, and you had to wait 45 minutes to order it; the wagu beef meatball was super delicious; the croquetas de setas were perfectly fried with cheese and mushrooms; the grilled squid was better than the one at bar isabel; the dessert Leche Frita was a little too sweet. In summary, it is a restaurant I will go to again.
I ate the paella I had been craving for at Patria. I highly recommend it. I personally prefer the lobster version in Figure 1 because it has a stronger taste. The paella has real ingredients and lots of seafood. The grilled octopus tastes a bit strange, but the dessert is really delicious. I was so happy.
Another pleasant food experience in winter. The iron arch of Patria is inconspicuous in the gap between the crowded buildings in Downtown. The narrow passage is lit up, warm and romantic in the snowy night. The dim lights of the Western restaurant, the wallpaper with snowflake❄️ patterns on the wall, and the waiter performing wine pouring skills at the next table. Spanish cuisine is indispensable for paella, and I chose seafood and beef. There are many types of TAPAs, including lobster, octopus, fish steak, Brussels sprouts, amazing beef bone marrow, and traditional Spanish dough sticks and chocolate mousse for dessert. The portion is just right, the taste is suitable for Asian taste buds, and the atmosphere is romantic Western.
In the evening, we went to Patria to taste Spanish delicacies. The handsome waiter especially recommended seafood from his hometown of PEI. Hearing that we had been there, he gave each of us a glass of champagne for free. We ordered another glass of Spanish fruit wine, and with the exquisite food, we chatted about things far and near, and went home slightly tipsy under the aroma of wine and the lights.
