    We had not been in years and were very pleasantly surprised to be served by Michael Blackie himself. We asked for wine pairing and it of course matched the dishes wonderfully. We had the lamb keftedes to start. The flavors were amazing. The main courses were Blackies crispy chicken ( lots leftover for lunch today)and the “Schnitz” chicken schnitzel. Again fantastic mix of flavors. We even had room for dessert. Having Michael Blackie himself serve you dinner was a great touch. Obviously sharing his expertise explaining all the combinations of flavors we were to experience in each dish. He was very personable and exchanged friendly banter with each visit to our table. Looking forward to my leftover crispy chicken today for lunch. We will definitely be back again.

    We had a wonderful family brunch with our adult children enjoying every bite and explanation from Chef Blackie of the fabulous tasting menu! Personable, great explanations and humour that allowed us to enjoy each course all the more! Great environment , great food and great service - what more could you ask for!
