We had the best food that we had in Nova Scotia at this particular restaurant. And we just found it when we were walking down one of the main streets in Lunenburg. He serves five courses, and you have choices for four out of the five courses. The food was innovative and beautifully presented, but it was also quite delicious. My husband absolutely raved about the wild mushroom tacos, I think he could have had three plates of those if he had been allowed to do so. I loved the broccoli tempura that was the first course.

Miso forced oysters were a nightly special and just fantastic but the chef, Paolo, was also preparing foraged mushrooms, seared cod, pickled peppers. We went with a group of six and ordered many plates to share. It was a memorable evening and I...
Read moreGood tasting, creatively presented food. Paolo uses locally foraged ingredients (such as Knotweed for ginger ice cream or pickles; herbs of dried wild sweet peas from the beach) paired with local produce and wine to create a fresh twist on maritime fish and sea-food staples. A beef-eater and a vegetarian will always be happy, too. This summer the vegetable Tempura, scallops and beef gnocchi have been a real treat! Take the $45 prix-fix and enjoy an nice amuse-bouche and all three courses plus a delicious...
