| - I was in Whitby for work and decided to explore the downtown area for dinner. I happened to see this beautiful French bistro, and its charm drew me inside. I was the only guest on this cold week night, but I instantly felt as if I had entered a family home. The owners, originally from Montreal, all were lovely and gracious hosts, and the mother /wife was so wonderful and welcoming as well as passionate about the menu. Her husband made everything from scratch in the kitchen, while her son helped in the dining room. Over and over, she smiled and said "merci' and broke her fine English with some beautiful French.
The food was outstanding. The French onion soup was extraordinary, and I loved the broiled salmon and veggies, marinated or sauteed in a light maple syrup glaze. The steak and frites, made either with hanger steak or sirloin, called my name, but I decided to be healthy instead.
What a beautiful place and good people. You gotta go.
