Good grief.

The new owner is really making changes.......... We're going to check it out soon.

Good to know! I walked by to check out the menu and wasn't blown away....

Third for Riverhouse...................

That is for the simple reason that there isn't much. Or none that we have every found, outside of 'big box'...

What happened? I heard it was closed!

Otonabee -- do you know if the Imperial room charges for toddlers? I can't see my 23 month old eating enough to make the "1/2 price for kids" price tag worthwhile!

tee hee

thanks! now I just need 6 people to come to Lakefield to help us eat it ;)

You haven't lived................... ;)

We loved it 6 months ago.......................

Anywhere I could get either or both of these in Ontario --- preferably frozen for the wellington? I am trying to recreate a menu and I am NOT a good cook!

If any of you have had the coconut cream pie at Scaramouche, in Toronto, that's what I'm talking about... Light as a cloud, the perfect blend of sweet with some texture from coconut....... yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Heard of it ... never been... Thanks for the tip.

Yes. Exactly. Like most resorts in that neck of the woods, some of their dishes seem to be a bit of a stretch but they do a good job and the 'trip' is worth it...

Yes. No more description needed. Good for people watching. That's it.

We should get a group together and take over a restaurant ... Would be easy to do with a small place!

In search for the best strawberry daiquiri in the downtown - Front street to Lawrence, Bathurst to Bayview....

I know it's girly... but I've been dying for one... call it memories of summer vacation!

I agree with phiserking

The louder the better - we go with our daughter to the pub all the time for Sunday breakfast without difficulty. But for a birthday dinner, have you thought about upscale Chinese dim sum like Lai Toh Hee / Lai Wah Heen?

We loved it and found it comparable to Scaramouche for food, though not for service. Nothing compares to Scaramouche for service. We also did wine pairing, and cocktails, which adds up...

Just did North 44 - really worth it. 2 apps, 2 mains, 1 dessert, 1 cheese plate - wine pairing with the whole thing. $350

If it's warm out, go to Oasis and sit on the patio in the back - they have heat lamps... If not, the Northside Grill is a nice option http://thenorthside.ca/ - they have a tapas menu that looks fun. I have been for lunch and enjoyed it thoroughly...

My Mom found the gulf shrimp a little off but she said the other items she and a friend got there were good...

For a fun daytrip: http://www.mcleanberryfarm.com/ - Buckhorn Maple Fest! :)

We have taken our now 14 month old to Cha Liu several times - store the stroller at the bar... also, if you want to venture to Mt. Pleasant, the Granite Brewery is not great food but big enough that if she kicks up a fuss (ours), it's no big deal...

I had the foie on brioche for lunch yesterday at Panagea - it was a seriously humungous portion! Loved every second of it.

I agree with sbug206 - too big chunks, too little sauce... we werent' thrilled. But there is so much else to tempt at Summerhill, not the least of which is it's quaint location (park farther away and walk the neighbourhood! Excercise and gastronomy in one fell swoop!)...
