I am so happy to have eaten here. My stomach and mouth have joined forces to write a thank you letter to the chef. It reads: Dear Chef, thank you for the oysters. They were decadent. Superb. Lovely. Coupled with my white wine, I was happy and fulfilled. Then, chef, you introduced me to halloumi. Halloumi and its soulmate, eggplant. I never knew... I knew to eat these things separately... but together... together is something dreams are made of. Next, quail and beet salad. Both of these dishes were delights, although my heart lives with halloumi and his wife aubergine henceforth. But these were just the appetizers!! The main was the wall-eye. I grew up near the water and have caught these bad boys myself. I've had my share of wall-eye and this wall-eye was delicious! Cooked just right and served to please. You make a cottage country girl proud. Lastly, the cheese platter. I have never seen such a beautiful wooden dolly full of cheeses from Quebec and beautiful accompaniments - apricot marmalade with mustard seed to name just one! This cheese. So good.
The ambience in this place is lovely - wooden touches and teal painted walls. A lovely spot on rue Bernard tucked next to Cheskie's. Warm. That middle ground between charming and elegant. Bring your friends here :) It is such a wonderful addition to this street!
