Aspria – Auberge & Grill – Ste. Adele
(visited December 2011)
This bright restaurant is decorated with white & blue chequered
table-cloths and a display of photos from Greece, and the music is
Greek Bouzouki. The owners are Dimitri and Nathalie who welcome
patrons to the restaurant warmly.
The name Aspria comes from Dimitri’s hometown in Greece, which he and
Natalie visit annually. Patrons are encouraged to bring their own
wine! As for the rest, leave it to Dimitri and Nathalie! He works in
the kitchen and she cheerfully serves the food. He takes pride in
preparing Greek specialties. His Steak Aspria done in a special
marinade of fine herbs is very tender. This comes with Basmati rice,
house fries, and salad as a Table d’hôtes ($25.95) which also includes
a choice of soup, snails, artichoke hearts, fried eggplant, or fried
zucchini, and coffee.
 Dimitri
has been cooking traditional Greek dishes since his school days. He
adds his own touch to almost every dish, and willingly comes to your
table to share the details with those who ask. Even his Tzaziki has
his own special touch and taste, his Pikilia Santorini could be a main
dinner dish; it includes shrimps and calamari too. Dimitri actually
has regular customers who come especially for his fried Calamari. The
menu includes a Souvlaki Pita for children ($8.95).
Please note: The photo of the dish
includes a piece of eggplant which I have requested, and a small
piece of the Aspria Beef Steak that Dimitri added for me to taste.
Aspria also offers lodging in their Inn with rooms and suites $79 to
$99 (rate for 2 people.) Aspria has become popular with visitors
coming to the Festival J’aime Ste. Adèle, as well as the summer
theatre. Aspria, Auberge & grill: 430, Ch.
Pierre-Péladeau, Ste. Adèle. 450 229-6939
