This year, instead of going to your usual spot, try something completely different.Here are my top 5 choices for your not-so-typical Easter dining this weekend:
o get to this café, you’re going to have to take the ferry. Open year round, the Rectory Café is located on Wards Island, just across Lake Ontario and 5 minutes from Ward's Island Ferry terminal. This weekend, they’ll be open Good Friday – Easter Sunday 11am to 5pm, closed Easter Monday. And the menu offers something for everyone – starters, salads, sandwiches, and mains including Mushroom & Smoked Gorgonzola Linguini ($18) and Butter Chicken ($20).
Fish Friday takes on a whole new meaning on Good Friday thanks to Lisbon By Night’s All You Can Eat Fish Friday! Doors open at 5pm. This long-standing Portuguese restaurant will also be open on Easter Sunday at 11:30am with Easter Specials.
Want a restaurant-worthy meal without the hassle of having to make reservations? This Easter, Ma Maison Gourmet has got you covered with Chef Patrick’s prepared foods, including quiche and tourtiere, hors d’oeuvres, pate, viennoiserie and croissants, desserts, artisan breads & hot cross buns. And dinner is a snap thanks to entrees such as Roasted Turkey Breast with fresh herbs; Salmon Wellington with tomato-anise sauce; Roast Beef with jus; and Glazed Ham with Apricot & Maple Sauce Scalloped Potatoes.
