Let's envisage warm seas and sunny sandy beaches!

My bags are packed, I'm ready for the warm weather again.  Summer seems so far away.  So we're heading to a beach in the Mediterranean this week where the skies are blue and the temperatures are still warm.  To get you in the mood for your holiday, why not join us for supper and experience some of the fabulous Mediterranean cuisine McGill's has to offer this week. 

This is a picture of the Bavarian mousse and it tastes just as heavenly as it looks.  Also pictured is a fabulous concoction of passion fruit and rum.  Totally light and refreshing!  We have sangria too, and I'm still a loyal fan of that, just in case you were wondering.

This is the perfect time to try some Mediterranean dishes.  And here at McGill's we have an excellent setting for a relaxing, tranquil dining experience.  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.
