Restaurant Week Kicks Off Today!

Cornwall Ontario – Looking to experience something new?

Cornwall’s best chefs have gone all out to create some unique meals for Restaurant Week, a five-day celebration of Cornwall’s vibrant culinary scene.

“I love the energy it creates,” says Steve Montroy of Moustache Joe’s. “People come in and are excited to try things on the menu. A lot of times they’re trying restaurants that perhaps they have not tried before.”

A total of 9 restaurants will be participating in Restaurant Week.

“We see a lot of different faces during this festival,” says Christian Barque, Head Chef at Bar Q Restaurant. “It makes it fun to have all these restaurants involved. The more the merrier!”

From August 25th to August 29th, select local restaurants will offer guests a specially designed 3-course menu for $22 or $28. The fixed-price menu provides a unique opportunity for patrons to try different local restaurants via an attractive price point.

Participating Cornwall restaurants include:

• Bar Q
• Dimitri’s (Summerstown)
• Esca Gourmet Pizza + Bar
• Moustache Joe’s
• Schnitzel’s
• Sheep’s Head Bistro (Glen Walter)
• Truffles Burger Bar
• Table 21 Steakhouse and Oyster Bar
• Propeller Restaurant (NAV Centre)

“We are also very excited about the addition of three new restaurants to our line-up,” says Mr. Manigat.

This will be the third edition of Restaurant Week. At the last event in March, participating restaurants experienced a significant increase in diners and some were even forced to turn people away. In July, the Summer Beer Fest attracted over 1,200 people to the largest craft beer celebration in the region, and many of the above restaurants participated in that event.

“People don’t need to leave Cornwall to experience food that is available in Ottawa and Montreal,” says Luc McCabe, Head Chef at the Propeller Restaurant. “Support local chefs and help get the local food vibe going!”
