The food was just ok, nothing special. We had the fixed price menu...one had the celeriac Caesar and chicken salad, one had pierogies and the tourtiere, desert was chocolate turine.

Us adults loved being able to walk around and enjoy the informative plaques that were sprinkled around the area, and still allowed us to see all the kids. Personally, I loved the eco approach to the water waste, and use of grasses/reeds to clean and purify before it's final journey back to the river. Was definitely the best slash park we have ever been to, and will hold a special place in the...
