Friday night, 5 friends, some hailing as far away as Etobicoke, Savoured the Season at the Tin Mill and were treated to an unforgettable dinner. After the difficult decision of which appetizer to choose, the Maple Roasted Root Vegetable Salad with carrots, parsnips, squash and sweet potato atop mixed greens, crispy leeks and apple vinaigrette had a small lead over the Miniature Autumn Chicken Pot Pie (featuring Cooper’s CSA Farm and Maze). An excellent choice! Followed by an entree of grilled Certified Organic Steak from Gallery on the Farm with a creamy potato casserole, roasted carrots and red wine demi glace. Now that’s what steak tasted like when I was growing up! For dessert, another difficult choice. Hands down, the Chunky Ontario Apple Caramel Cake (featuring Ocala Orchards Farm Winery) served with Maple caramel sauce (Ashton Maple Products) was by far the winner.
We were all charmed by the atmosphere of the restaurant, and were welcomed like long-lost relatives. Proprietor Don Andrews was delighted to share the history of the Mill with us. What a wonderful evening! We WILL be back…
