The Scene<br />
A block from Port Stanley’s charming<br />
harbour, the Inn was built in 1854 and<br />
has been lovingly restored. Cozy seating<br />
arrangements include a vintage harvest<br />
table for large groups or Chef’s Tastings. In<br />
season, there are additional tables on the<br />
wraparound veranda. For overnight stays,<br />
the Inn has three tastefully appointed<br />
rooms with modern amenities and two<br />
separate rooms next door.<br />
Menu Highlights<br />
Owner and accomplished chef Kim<br />
Saunders sources her ingredients from<br />
the large farm network in Elgin County,<br />
seeking local and organic, ethicallyraised<br />
products as much as possible.<br />
Saunders also grows many of her own herbs, edible flowers and heirloom<br />
vegetables in the gardens surrounding the Inn.<br />
Chef notes the menu is subject to change “at the whim of the Kitchen Spirits<br />
and Mother Nature!” At Brunch, expect to find a Farmer’s Breakfast of perfect<br />
scrambled eggs with chives, herbed home fries, bacon, farmer’s sausage & ancient<br />
grain toast. The Fisher’s Breakfast substitutes cornmeal-crusted perch for the<br />
Farmer’s meats. Try the Huevos Mildred, refried beans & cheddar in spelt tortillas<br />
topped with two poached eggs, avocado lime hollandaise, herby home fries and<br />
house-made spicy chorizo sausage. Also<br />
recommended are the Lake Erie Pickerel<br />
Cakes, panko-crusted and pan-roasted<br />
with baby arugula salad & lemon dill aioli<br />
and the Perch ’n Fries, cornmeal-dusted<br />
Lake Erie perch with herby home fries,<br />
house slaw and fabulous tartar sauce.<br />
Dinner starters include a CSA Salad<br />
with organic heritage greens or the marketinspired<br />
Soup of the Moment. Entrées<br />
could be Buttermilk-Brined & Roasted<br />
Breast of Duck with hunter style potato<br />
& yam hash, harvest vegetables, smoked<br />
onion & plum conserve; or Sterling Silver<br />
The Harvest Table and Bar<br />
Beef Tenderloin with “loaded” mash<br />
potato, market vegetables & smoked shallot<br />
“steak sauce.”<br />
