Restaurant: It's about time people you go to About Thyme!

After reading Monkey See, Monkey Feast's blog on About Thyme, mouth drooling with the thought of foie gras poutine, I decided to go on the road trip to visit this hidden gem.

Situated at Lincoln, Ontario (3457 King Street, Vineland, Ontario L0R 2C0, Canada), 30 minutes from Niagara-On-The-Lake, this was a perfect in-between stop before doing wine tasting tours at Niagara-On-The-Lake.

For all duck lovers and adventurous eaters, the Bistro Poutine is heavenly! A big batch of yukon gold fries smothered with foie gras sauce, duck confit and aged cheddar. They don't scrimp on the toppings as you can get the sauce, cheese and duck with each fry you get. Also, what I really love as well is that despite all these toppings, the fries are still crispy as ever and didn't get soggy! I would definitely go back just to have another shot at this poutine! Price is $12. (Sidebar: This is good for sharing between 3-5 people as appetizers. There was actually a couple, who ate for lunch, that just ordered spinach salad and bistro poutine. They couldn't even finish the poutine!)

We also tried their Mussels of the Day (comes with Fries). That day came with cream of leek and smoked bacon. Small portion (~30 mussels) is $8 for small.
