Experience Rating:

 4.8/5

Way back in August (seems like forever ago) we had the privilege to attend a 7-course collaboration dinner at Les Fougères restaurant hosted by two of the hottest chefs in the Ottawa Region – Yannick LaSalle and Imrun Texeira. Chef LaSalle is the resident chef at Les Fougères and was the 2019 winner of the Canadian Culinary Championships and Chef Texeira was a top-four finisher in the 2020 edition of Top Chef Canada and former sous chef at one of our favourite Ottawa restaurants – Stofa.

Riviera – Ottawa – July 2020

Experience Rating:

 4.7/5

Voted as Ottawa’s top restaurant according to the Canada’s Best Restaurant list for 2020 (#26 on the list), Riviera is a restaurant that we’ve had at the top of our “must visit” list for some time now. As with most, previous plans to reserve were put on hold during the pandemic, but we were extremely happy to book a table now that things are returning to normal.

Supply and Demand – January 2020

Experience Rating:

 4.8/5

It’s been more than 2 years since we’ve had the opportunity to visit Supply & Demand in Ottawa’s Westboro neighbourhood and I’m pleased to say that the product has only gotten better with time. Our return visit was outstanding – same great service; innovative menu selections; and a cool vibe.

Stofa – August 2019

Experience Rating:

 4.7/5

I had the opportunity to visit Stofa restaurant with my family for a second time in August to celebrate my 50th birthday. Once again, the restaurant – ranked #2 on the 2019 Top Ten Best New Restaurants List from Ottawa Magazine – didn’t fail to impress.
