Food fit for a King Lear

Richard Ouzounian The Toronto Star 07/07/10 http://www.thestar.com/travel/ontariooutings/article/830584--in-stratford-food-fit-for-a-king-lear

The classiest place in Stratford, hands down, but not snobby, thanks to the quietly elegant charm of owner James Morris. You can dine in the original River Room and delight in the full menu, or do like many smart Stratford types (including artistic director Des McAnuff) and step back into ...

This blog review includes photos of the food!  “My veal cheeks were rich and meltingly soft. I had a taste of Alan's quail and tried to hijack his plate. He wouldn't let me. Fiona's hanger steak was served with a mushroom and black bean salsa and guacamole. I never would ...
