Toronto Summerlicious

Chicken Cordon Bleu with french bean salad, sweet onion soubise, mustard caper vinaigrette and smoked bacon jus.

Toronto is buzzing again this past two weeks from July 4th to July 20th with Summerlicious. This is a two weeks food extravaganza with over 100 restaurants around Toronto participating to celebrate our diverse cuisine. The restaurants offer prix fixe lunch and dinner menus at a very affordable price. This is our chance to discover new restaurants and to try high end restaurants at an affordable price. If you are in Toronto, there is still time to try the Summerlicious. Go for it and have fun! 

Ice cream Sandwich with vanilla bean ice cream, chocolate chip cookie on top, nutella and candied hazelnuts.

For Summerlicious, a group of us visited the classic French Restaurant Auberge Du Pommier to try their three course prix fixe lunch menu. The Auberge Du Pommier is one of the top ten most recommended restaurant for Summerlicious in the Toronto Life  Magazine. For a group of eight, we were impressed by their impeccable service and very knowledgeable staff. Our waitress and staff served us with military precision considering we were quite a large group. As for me, I chose to drink their apricot lavender iced tea, shrimp salad crostini for Appetizer, Chicken Cordon Bleu as main entree and ice cream sandwich for my dessert. Overall, we had fun and enjoyed our food. My friends were happy and impressed with the Restaurant. We will be coming back again to try their Gourmand Menu.
