We’ll be dining at Algonquin College’s Restaurant International for our October lunch. The restaurant provides a hands-on learning laboratory for students in the college’s culinary and hospitality programs and earns wonderful reviews from guests. Unfortunately, the restaurant is unable to provide us with their final menu as students work out the menus based (as much as possible) on locally sourced, seasonally fresh ingredients, and it is finalized just before the month begins. We realize that for our food-sensitive folks that won’t allow you to register until we have an actual menu but, to help with the planning we will open registration for those members who can commit without knowing the exact menu. What we do know:
- Date: Thursday, October 5 – doors open at 11:30 a.m, service will begin at noon.
- The soup will likely be a butternut squash soup.
- Entrée choices will likely be a choice of salmon, chicken, or a vegetarian dish (we just aren’t sure how they will be prepared!) with seasonal vegetables.
- Dessert will likely be a chocolate lava cake/brownie.
- FYI, here is their current menu…
- Cost will be $40 per person, paid in advance (see payment ‘how to’ information at the bottom of this note), and will include the three-course meal, tea or coffee, taxes and tip.
- There will be a cash bar offered.
- We will not be able to offer refunds if your plans change but will do our best (as we hope you would too!) to sell your ticket(s).
So, if you are up for this wonderful adventure, and seeing the exact menu isn’t a concern, register now via email. Please note, you must pay in advance to be registered.
