London’s Oasis for Food Lovers! DAVID’S BISTRO Chef David Chapman (centre), his daughter, Manager Natalie Chapman (centre left), and wife Cindy Kinsella (centre right) help create “an oasis for food lovers” with professional, friendly service at David’s Bistro. Chef Elvis Drennan (third from left) leads an exceptional kitchen staff. Elegantly tucked into a fine Richmond Street heritage building, this is one of Downtown London’s culinary landmarks. 16 www.eatdrink.ca RESTAURANTS
THE SCENE David’s Bistro, a classic French bistro, was opened in 1998 by David Chapman. After being chef and then chef/owner of Anthony’s Seafood Bistro (a local landmark at the time) for 18 years, Chapman decided to reinvent himself. His traditional bistro, with its small bar, vibrant red walls and checkered tablecloths, is a venerated downtown London culinary anchor. The classic bistro motif perfectly matches the traditional approach to service and attention to detail. MENU HIGHLIGHTS Chef/owner David Chapman and Co-Chef Elvis Drennan, who has helmed the kitchen and a talented kitchen staff for a number of years, present perfectly executed classic regional French-inspired specialties. The emphasis is on authentic country cuisine with primarily seasonal and high quality local ingredients. Chapman and Drennan are long-time proponents of the philosophy that simplicity, seasonality and purity are the hallmarks of good cooking. Chalkboard prix-fixe menus change daily, in tune with the seasons and the availability of special items. So too does the interesting wine list vary, always with a range of carefully selected consignment wines listed Daily Prix Fixe Specials Classic Bistro 432 Richmond Street (at Carling) MAPS A & B: 1 519-667-0535 LUNCH: WED–FRI 11:30 am–2:30 pm DINNER: MON–SUN 5 pm–10 pm LUNCH: $14– $18 DINNER: $28 – $36 prix fixe menu changes daily 2 Courses: $26 3 Courses: $30 www.davidsbistro.ca Classic French Bistro Fare Daily Prix Fixe Choices Excellent Wine List, Available by Glass or Bottle Full Service Catering Available Exceptional Wine List on a separate blackboard, augmenting regular favourites.
