What a lovely way to spend an afternoon.
We shared in appetizers:
Thai chicken spring rolls, with spicy mustard and sweet chili sauce.Arborio rice and coriander-crusted shrimp, avocado salad and cilantro oil
Fricassee of Prince Edward Island Mussels, fine herbs and natural mussel jus.
Karin & George shared, and Ken ate, the Steak Frittes. All ordered medium and it was done to perfection. The fries were crispy and seasoned well.
Jay ordered the Bento Box du Jour which included a salad, spring roll, mussels, macaroni & cheese, lamb and fingerling potatoes.
The proper stemware was delivered with expertise (Rona).
Our server, Laurie, was extremely attentive. We requested her for George's birthday on February 16.
Wines enjoyed:
2007 Kim Crawford Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc
2006 Francois Pinon Vouvray (Chenin Blanc) Cuvee [George mentioned that the Foxen Chenin Blanc is also good]
2005 Smoking Loon Syrah
We were not rushed and enjoyed two hours of dining pleasure. Highly recommended.
