I'll try this out on my next trip to Ottawa! Looks delicious. Older son works in Gatineau so we often cross the river…
Fantastic! You can buy some for a family picnic in the Gatineau or at Kingsmere.
Beth,like all Gordins,i'm a smoked salmon lush.Rarely without it in the fridge,and when i am there's a restaurant(wisely called Bread and Chocolate)mere minutes away … and always well stocked with salmon and cream cheese,etc,not to mention fresh baked bagel,challah or whatever other bakery item you crave for your "lox". Is Michael planning to sell by mail?
I don't know – I'll find out, George. He opens next week and is frantically busy. Very exciting. I do hope you can soon have a taste of some family lox!
