Holiday on the French Riviera!

Here we are!  This is the little cottage I've booked for our vacation on the French Riviera.  Isn't it just beautiful!  What a view!

We're spending some time in the Med this week.  At least we'd be well adjusted to the hot temperatures, right?  McGill's has a fabulous patio for you to kick-back and relax on and enjoy an evening of Mediterranean cuisine.  It's the perfect way to spend a summer evening!  This cuisine makes you feel so good afterwards as it is not heavy food, and if you enjoy a glass of wine with it (I've said it before, I'll say it again--this diet includes wine, so it's all good!), you'll feel even better.  We may even be able to fetch you some sangria if you so desire. 

Why not slow things down a bit and join us for supper this week.  We have the perfect setting.  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:
