Take time to relax and enjoy good food!

When Mediterranean week rolls around, it always reminds me to slow down some and enjoy life a bit more.  This is the European way of life--it's a slower pace while they enjoy good food, good wine and good company.  I love it!  This week we have some fabulous dishes for you to choose from.  Pictured here are zucchini keftedes, which are so tasty but not heavy.  Why not make time this week to drop into McGill's to try our cuisine.  Our patio is still open (although it is cooling down in the evenings), but you may be able to enjoy a drink outside while soaking in the last rays of the sun before enjoying your meal.

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.
