ORANGE FLAVOURED ICECREAM?
Can anyone tell me where I could buy such a thing, higher end, possibly with cardamon flavouring?
No I don't have an icecream maker sadly...
Loire Valley trip report (Talcy, Beaugency, Blois)
Hi Kelly,
THE LOIRE/ Beaugency. Next time try Au Petit Bateau, however it was LA VILLA des BORDES in Clery St Andre where we had the BEST meal in about 10 visits to France. Unlikely location but seek it out like a missle seeking its target if you want to have an OUTSTANDING culinary experience. My experience at Le Bistrot du Cuisinier after your review was it was disappointing. Far too rich for me, however try la Villa des Bordes. Can I just say AWESOME. Not too expensive either. They have a website. lavilladesbordes.com
* Mille feuilles croquant de confit de faisan aux pommes
et
Casserons au saumon fumé au vinaigre d'Orléans
Beignet de foie gras, tian de noix de saint jacques
For our main we had (we don't eat red meat)
Lieu jaune aux pommes de terre confites et ravioles de poireaux
(leeks with ravioli, outSTANDING)
Médaillons de lotte en habit vert, fritots d'escargots acidulé
and for dessert
Brochette d'ananas rôti aux épices, canapé au caca
just SO memorable,.
Authentic Cafe to become Terroni
Carter, Terroni in Toronto is terrific on Queen Street West. They are cool, great management, great AUTHENTIC peasant food, REAL Italian chefs and people who genuinely care about their customers. Fear not, you're in for a treat! I'm a fan!

If you love tapas, have a huge wallet and tiny stomach, GO. Come on chef Tom Thai, get real. WHy are you charging the same prices as at Lee Restaurant, on King (Susur Lee's extraordinary restaurant) and have these teeeeeny portions. Nice room, great location but the area has a lot of artists and younger folks. We left hungry. Meal for x2 with wine, $100, plus tip and we were not satiated. Won't return unless the prices come down or we win the lottery and afford it!
foxley- on ossington
I had the fish too but WOW this place is PRICEY. they charge the same as for Lee (Susur's jaw-dropping food on King) folks, and the portions are small, very small. We had dinner for 2 people, it cost us $80 per couple with wine, but we were very hungry when we left. OVERPRICED. Tom, get real, you're on Ossington. What about food for artists? That's our hood man. If you have little stomachs and big wallets, this is the spot for you.
