Cervantes Space is Going to be... ?

Well, we're not sure yet if it's going to have the same name but the owners of Cassis Bistro in Lakefield have taken over the space that Cervantes was in on Hunter Street W. They're in the process of converting it now so we're looking forward to what they're going to do!

Culinary Tourism Event

This past Monday (January 28), we along with about 100 other food producers, caterers, restaurant owners and chefs attended the GPAEDC's Culinary Tourism event. It was a positive first step to making Peterborough & The Kawarthas a 'foodie' destination and we hope to see much more in the future! See this CHEX video clip for more information: http://www.chextv.com/videos/Newswatch_CulinaryTourism.WMV

All Hail the King of Chefs!

If you are into food & wine, then you probably know about Michael Stadtländer. He and his wife own the world-reknowned Eiginsinn Farm, in Singhampton Ontario. You have to wait for months for your reservation, you have to bring your own wine and, unless you're crazy, you'll book a B&B locally to sleep after the gastronomic wonder that you will be served... I have never been there - it's on my life list - but people I know who have just come away amazed.

Chef Stadtländer produces much of what he serves and is one of the biggest proponenents of the 'eat local' trend. This April, he will be the keynote speaker at the Green EXPO!
Saturday, April 26, 2008
10 am until 4 pm
Evinrude Centre, 911 Monaghan Rd.
Admission: $5
Showcasing all aspects of living greener: extensive exhibits, impressive line-up of presenters, wine tasting, fashion show, children's activity area. Keynote speaker is Michael Stadtländer, one of the world's most accomplished chefs and an ardent promoter of local food. A School Challenge will showcase what area schools are doing to green their schools and workshops on greening businesses for young entrepreneurs will also be offered. .

Cervantes is Gone?

Driving along Hunter the other day, we noticed that the windows at Cervantes are papered up and the space is for lease. Unfortunately, we have no information as to what happened but we hope all is well with Lee and his family!
