Feliz Año Nuevo! Happy New Year!

Hola and welcome to Mexican week!  We're back in the full swing of things now and rolling out our Mexican menu.  Our Chef and his crew in the kitchen have definitely perfected this cuisine.  The hardest part for me is deciding what to have for a starter and a dessert.  They are all amazing so it's difficult to pick just one. 

Don't forget this Friday sees the kick-off of roast beef Fridays.  Enjoy a full roast beef dinner with all the trimmings.  Throw in a pitcher of beer too.  We'll have prices for you soon.

McGill's is open Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings from 5.00pm until 8.00pm.  Always freshly prepared, our cuisine will have you coming back for more and eagerly anticipating Mexican week each time it rolls around.  Enjoy 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. We'd love to have you join us.

Come and enjoy yourself!  ¡Pásatelo bien! 

Here is what we have to offer you this week:

Stuffed Grilled Jalapenos
Jalapeno peppers split and stuffed with cheese and salsa verde, sprinkled in bacon and grilled.  Served with sour cream

Salsa & Guac
Quad-coloured corn tortilla chips served with house-made salsa cruda and fresh guacamole

Shrimp and Scallop Posole
Medallions of scallops and shrimp simmered in a light broth, finished with fresh cilantro

Main Course

Beef Tacos
Two soft tortillas grilled and filled with seasoned slow-braised beef, topped with salsa cruda, aged cheddar cheese and shredded lettuce.  Served with sour cream

Dessert

Chocolate-Ancho Crème Brûlée
Rich dark Cacao Barry chocolate married with spicy ancho pepper, blended into a smooth creamy custard, sprinkled with sugar and caramelized.  The heat of the ancho and the sweetness of the chocolate make this dessert perfect!
