In light of the weekend, I feel like dedicating a post to the best and most celebrated time (for me anyways) of any weekend - breakfast time. The weather this summer has really been disappointing, but whenever it decides to get nice again I would recommend a visit for a Sunday morning breakfast in the country and the place to do so in my opinion is the Dutchmill Country Market, located about 45min from Toronto in Milgrove. Just like t
heir simple website proclaims its a unique and inviting atmosphere where you can enjoy a hearty breakfast or a delicious lunch.When we went it was sometime in Winter, so it was still a little chilly outside but it was nice to enjoy a breakfast away from the rush of the city. The french toast was superb, and served with some berries and fresh fruit on the side. Apparently there's some real good waffles, which I chose not to have from the menu.
The Dutchmill Country Market not only has the most pleasant atmosphere in the little tea room where you can enjoy your meal, but you can also take a walk around the large vscinity which also offers some garden stuff, amish furniture and other unique arts and crafts for sale. So now for the best part...the lamas, in addition there is a small petty zoo right outside the place where you can also find a little pond. In the winter they had the lamas! "Dude.. its a lama!" So awesome, I know I get very easily amazed by some of this stuff, but I can't help it, when was the last time you saw a lama right in front of you. There were little babies too! I'm not sure what their 'lama-rotation' is like in the summer, but I'm sure you will be ab
le to find plenty more animals hanging out there in the summer to help you enjoy your stay. After all the website seems to guarantee some goats, rabbits, chicken and lambs, like I said we only went in winter, so we only got to meet the lamas.Pictures:

Ah hem...How did you find out about this place Gabi?
ReplyDeleteAnd I said the waffles suck, my mom ordered them and they were dry and hard. On the other hand, I highly recommend the Strawberry Filled Pancakes. If the time is right, they stuff the pancakes with fresh strawberries which become soft and runny and melt in your mouth upon insertion. Also, fyi, breakfast is served only on the weekends and holidays until 1pm I believe.

ReplyDeleteOh yeahh... you're right, I totaly screwed that up, it was the pancackes and not the waffles, my bad.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the comment Adrian.. and yes yes, I do remember calling you at 9 30 in the morning one day, demanding you remember how to get there despite your longing-to-go-back to sleep croaky voice
