Dinner for two on the Mediterranean seaside?

Table's all set, dinner is served!  Isn't this just perfect?  With the temperatures we're having, this picture doesn't have to be the Mediterranean seaside.  But that's where we're taking you this week.  I love this menu - the food is not heavy and makes you feel good.  Of course it does, the Mediterranean diet is one of the healthiest.  (It also includes wine so that makes it even better.)

Won't you join us this week.  I can't promise you the seaside seats, but our patio is pretty peaceful.  Unless there is sangria.  Then I can't promise anything. :-)  As always, this menu is offered on Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings from 5.00pm until 8.00pm.  Fine dining in a relaxed and intimate atmosphere.  Give us a call on (902) 681-3225 and let us reserve a table for you.  We are located at 18 Kentucky Court, New Minas.  And remember, our cuisine is always freshly prepared and worth the wait.

Here is what we have to offer you this week:

Appetizer:

Dolmades
Short-grain rice and fresh herbs wrapped in tender grape leaves and simmered gently in a flavourful chicken broth.  Served with tzatziki

Tabbouleh
Bulger wheat tossed with fresh tomatoes, onions, herbs and a light honey-lemon dressing

Main Course:

Lamb Souvlaki
Large pieces of lamb marinated in olive oil, lemon juice and oregano, then skewered and grilled on our char broiler.  Served with tzatziki and pita bread and wilted spinach with olives

Spanakopita

Chicken Marrakech

Sweet bell peppers, and garbanzo beans with an earthy Moroccan spice blend served with a fresh grilled chicken breast.  Served over saffron and toasted almond couscous and finished with Greek yogurt

Dessert:

Baklava

Baked layers of butter-drenched phyllo pastry with spices and chopped nuts.  Then, when still warm, soaked in a honey-lemon syrup

As always, our new and exciting evening menu is available for you to choose from alongside our mouth-watering Mediterranean menu.
