Dinner at Artisanale in Guelph

On Thursday, September 13, my daughter-in-law Cherrie Winfield and I are having our annual chili sauce day, a day in which we make huge pots of the preserve, gossip and sometimes watch a chick movie. Always tired after all that activity, we are both looking forward to going out for a Provencal dinner at Artisanale, the French influenced, locally inspired restaurant in Guelph where we will enjoy the final September Harvest Table Dinner prepared by Yasser Qahawish in the beautiful old stone building on Woolwich Street. If you have an active day planned and need some delicious pampering, give the restaurant a call at 519-821-3359 for a chance to savour everything from Eggplant Rillette and Farm Chicken to Plum Tart with Lavender Honey, all locally sourced, enlivened with olive oil and lemon, then cooked with wood and charcoal. A suitable ending for our chili sauce day; perhaps I’ll take along a jar.
