Excellent diner last night in Gatineau

We were invited last night by Marc-Aurèle and Frederick for dinner at their new home on the other side of the Outaouais River in Gatineau (Quebec). Marc-Aurèle is a chef, really, the food he prepared was wonderful and he has flair and talent. Knowing that Will has an allergy to gluten he prepared an entrée with endives and balsamic vinegar reduction which was truly very good. The filet mignon were wonderful cooked just right, he knows his timing when it comes to meat. For desert a personal favourite of mine, Crèpe Suzette flambée, wow! Now he must have gone to Hotel school to learn this or he simply has natural talent.





M.A. should consider as a second career as a chef or caterer. Fred with his sparkling Prussian blue eyes was delightful like always, a graphic artist he has an eye for colours, their lovely new house is tastefully decorated and the colours are relaxing and warm, with beautiful wood floors.

It was very nice of them to invite us, we had a great evening, which helps us re-integrate the great wilderness.
