| It’s a tall order to compete with the view from the world’s tallest freestanding building but chef Peter George aims high. Free entrance to the CN Tower’s observation deck, a prime tourist attraction, comes with a meal here so in summer diners can top 900 nightly. Still, George has spent years in his 1,151-feet-high kitchen and his loyal staff, long on experience, helps ensure all runs smoothly. Regional Canadian fare is a point of pride such as pickerel from Lake Erie, Malpeque oysters from Prince Edward Island, rabbit from Quebec and arctic char from the north. Some herbs and vegetables are even harvested from a garden plot at the base of the tower. Iced seafood platters are a crowd-pleaser. The grand platter (misleadingly called an appetizer for two) is a generous serving of East Coast lobster, oysters, shrimp, bay scallops, PEI mussels, queen crab legs and three types of smoked fish. For meat-lovers there are game birds, venison, well aged prime rib and tournedos Rossini. The wines, housed in the Guinness Book’s World’s Highest Wine Cellar, number over 550 labels. Desserts, somewhat on the heavy side, include sour cherry crumble and a dense bread pudding. |
