Matt Dusk sings last nite in Elora. Next performance is Aug 12: http://www.mattdusk.com/tour.php

From his upbeat "Back in Town" to "My way" by Sinatra, the crooner was in great form last nite. He told me after the show, "I just wanted to have fun." That was clear. We were delighted to share in the fun!

Cam & Hailey serve Gin & The Giant Peach Martini at upbeat Turtle Jack's. Deliciously different

P82

Cam, Hailey and Tami (not pictured) are looking after me with stellar service at Turtle Jack's. Martini Ingredients: Gordon's Gin, Peach Schnapps, white peach tea, shaken with fresh lime juice, splashed with Agave syrup. Served with a peach slice. Goes down nice with the world's best ribs. Trust me. Turtle Jack's Mapleview (Burlington) is one of several locations.

Spencer's (Burlington) photo album of visit by The Wine Baron & Zoltan Szabo. From foie gras & stuffed zuccini flower to battered Lk Erie Perch...

Five courses later, the Transylvanian and Austrian agreed, this coulda been New York, Tokyo or Paris. The dazzling creations of Chef Haworth and Chef Bill were world class. TOP of the world. Enjoy the photo album of 5 dishes. Each masterfully paired with a Viewpointe wine, from their Pinot Grigio to their Reserve Syrah.

The Spencer's location is also one of its drawing cards. It's right on Lake Ontario. We sat on the patio and enjoyed the view while we dined in splendor. Thanks, Spencer's!
