Flavor 19


Flavor 19, Lingan Golf Course, Out on the Highway

It doesn't look like a restaurant, does it? Well, Flavor 19 is that and more! A small group of us met at the golf course's 19th hole for an evening of great food and music. Designed for those who want to watch the game, this restaurant features a wall of windows - we watched a pair of cross-country skiers, followed by a beautiful sunset, and finally the reflections of candles and mini-lights. This is quite a romantic spot, but do remember to bring a light sweater as it gets chilly towards evening.

We started our dinner with cocktails or wine; all of the drinks were appreciated, especially the Arnold Palmer! Our meals were rich and tasty and everyone enjoyed their selections.

We no longer photograph each of our entrees, but this dish certainly deserves special attention. This is the "Little Cub House Sandwich" and there was nothing little about it. Look at the height of this burger!

$2 of each sale goes to Little Bear at the Two Rivers Wildlife Park.  As most Cape Bretoners know, Little Bear arrived at the Park as a cub but now he needs a larger enclosure.

Cape Bretoners have taken this little bear to heart and there are many fundraisers for the little fellow. This was certainly a delicious one!


Our long-time readers will want to know about the tea service at Flavor 19.  We were served steaming hot cups of fresh tea and when they ran out of tea, well, they just put on more. We were never without a cup of delicious hot tea.


We were also very fortunate that Buddy MacDonald was the musical entertainment that night. Not only did he play some lovely tunes, but he came over to our table not once, but twice! I believe that had something to do with an offer of chocolate dessert and a table full of admirers.

A final comment has to be made about the excellent servers at Flavor 19 - they were pleasant, attentive, and funny. We certainly enjoyed ourselves at the 19th hole!

Italian Buffet, Polish Hall, Whitney Pier, Again

Image
      For the third year in a row, the UAG met up at St. Michael's Polish Hall in the Pier for the Italian buffet, part of the annual celebration entitled "Pierscape." Money raised from the buffet goes to the Whitney Pier Society for the Arts and judging by the number of people at the buffet, it's an excellent fundraiser.       Everything that I wrote last year (see May 2016) applies again this year. We have gained a couple of UAG members in the last few months, so it was their first time attending the buffet. However, they had heard about the selection of Italian dishes and the home-made eclairs! And since it was the same cook, may God continue to bless Kay, the food was delicious once again - our new members were not disappointed. Furthermore, the members of UAG were not quite so shy this year.  When Kay told us that she didn't want to see any food left on the buffet table, several of us filled up plates to take home with us. Imagine, we will each have an Itali

15 Commercial Street Extension, Louisbourg For our August outing, a group of ten UAG members headed to the Point of View Suites in Louisbourg for an evening of music, skits and large platters of delicious food. It was a wonderful evening! Thanks to Meg for providing these images: Everyone has to get in to costume before dinner! So much music and laughter! Everyone enjoyed their meal selections. And yes, there was even lobster! This outing was a tremendous success and will definitely be on our To-Do List for 2018!

Governors Pub & Eatery - not.

Image
Governors on the Esplanade, Sydney This month's outing was supposed to be to Governors on the Esplanade - Governors has a wonderful reputation and we were all keen to try the menu. Unfortunately, the person who took our booking did not write it down, despite my giving her all of my personal information, along with the date and time of the booking.  So there was no room for us at the pub - what's a group of food adventurers to do on a busy Friday night in downtown Sydney? A quick phone call was made to Trio Restaurant & Lounge, just a five-minute walk down the Esplanade, where the very efficient Troy the Bartender, assured us that he'd look after us. And he did! He sat us at a lovely table in the lounge where we relaxed, ordered drinks and enjoyed our main entrées. The Special of the evening was Prime Rib with Yorkshire Pudding and did it ever look wonderful! While we reviewed the dessert menu, our teas arrived...and there is something quite special about tea i
