"This beautiful Easter afternoon we took the family patriarch to his favourite local eatery once again. The joint was practically empty, and we were courteously seated. Our server was also pleasant, but not particularly attentive, sometimes preferring to wrap the cutlery rather than checking on our needs. Still, the food did not disappoint. The Calamari is still delicious, with a generous basket and lots of lemon. The small mussels provencale was perfect for Dad, and having lived in Belgium many years he said they were fantastic. Daughter 1 and I went with the market burger, and it schmecked. Thick and perfectly grilled patty, generous helpings of pickles, tomato and lettuce, and a chewy but not too large bun. The onion rings were over-battered and a little on the oily side, but were very tasty, especially with the accompanying mayonnaise dip. Fries are fantastic. Daughter 1 had the Caesar salad and hoovered it, really enjoying its crunch. The food really hit the spot. With 3 Stella's, a 9 oz glass of Merlot, and two Sprite (with refills), $144 before tip."
