Boomers Gourmet Fries (26 Erie St, Stratford - 519.275.3147)

This place has the best frites next to Montreal! Owner Sue Pasquale makes everything from scratch, she warned us about the addictive Garlic Mayo and she was right!


Clockwise from Top: Hickory Sticks Poutine (smoked mozzarella & gravy), Cosmopoliton (sweet potato fries, cheddar cheese curds & gravy), Garlic Mayo, Italian Pountine (cheese curds, marinara sauce & basil oil) + Crispy Onion Rings (not in pic).


Dancing for the audience of one at some outdoor stage near the waterside..

Random abandoned sign we found on the street..


Nightview of Stratford


Avon Theatre (99 Downie St, Stratford - 1.800.567.1600)

Great theatre. We saw "Into the Woods" which is about a bunch of fairy tales crossing paths in the woods and what happen to the "happy ever after".


Garlic's Restaurant (108 Downie Street - 519.275.2929)

Everything you can dream of about garlic! We especially went there for their Duck Bruchetta (toasted bread with bordeaux chevre, confit of duck, caramelized onion, fontal cheese and fresh thyme, finished with lemon oil) but unfortunately the new menu hasn't kicked in yet. But everything else there was very delicious. Reasonably priced, across from the Avon Theatre, good ambiance.
