So i'm going to a restaurant..

And it's not going to be too friendly with my wallet. The menu is small because it's a summerlicious restaurant (non T.O-ers might not know what that is)

Long story short, i'd like some opinions of what to eat. These are my choices (I choose one appetizer, one main and one dessert):

Appetizers
Nori cured Atlantic salmon
Wasabi sorbet
or
Fresh fine herb & baby lettuce
lemon olive oil & parmigiano reggiano
or
Watercress & potato soup
Coriander cream & mint oil


Mains:
Coutron crusted Georgian Bay White Fish
ratatouille nicoise
or
Tagliatelle & bay scallops
Fresh Tarragon fennel veloute
or
Char grilled Pork loin
White bean cassoulet & thyme glaze
or
Portobella Wellington
ratatouille nicoise


Desserts:
Summer fruit ‘Gazpacho’
Mascarpone & vanilla cream
or
Chocolate & cumin tart
or
Lemon & raspberry Cheesecake

For appetizers, i'm fairly certain that i'm going to have the salmon. Since one should not make friends with salad, and watercress & potato soup doesn't sound very appetizing (unless someone wants to say otherwise).

The mains i'm not so sure of. The food dictionary I used didn't have "coutron," so I still don't know what that is. However, i'm pretty sure I don't want the pork loin, since I can already guess what that will taste like (although the cassoulet sounds tasty). Is it worth getting the pork loin just for the cassoulet?

The desserts i'm not too certain of either. The mascarpone & vanilla ice cream sounds interesting, since i've never had mascarpone cheese.

Any thoughts?

Thanking you all in advance
