Nice Dinner in Collingwood

[sabb]

Was invited to Collingwood this weekend and want to take my hosts out for a nice dinner in or around the area. All suggestions are welcome....

Catch 22 for seafood, Green Mango Tree for Thai fusion, Cafe Chartreuse for breakfast, and for fine dining, I would go to Thornbury to Largo. Very nice atmosphere - to rival the best in Toronto - with a view and a patio overlooking Thornbury harbour. Food tends to the sweet side (braised pork tenderloin had a maple glaze and was served with cabbage and root veggies given a blueberry glaze - a bit overly sweet for me but delicious anyway) but the antipasto platter is amazing - better than any appetizer I have had in many five star places... Service can be hit or miss though.

We've gone to Sisi on Main in Thornbury, a nice small town just beyond the Blue Mountain village area. Very nice food and a hip vibe plus a bar where you can hang out while waiting for a table. It's quite busy, I would advise making reservations. Agree with "Cereal Killer" about the village, it's very touristy (not in a good way!).

I'd second the recc for Sisi on Main. It's been a couple of years since I was there, but it was great, and just far enough away from The Village.

27 on Fourth is very nice. Dining at Blue Mountain can be a challenge at the best of times, so I would avoid the "village" at all costs. Didn't know Oliver opened something up though - interesting.

There is a place on the main drag in downtown Collingwood...right now I can't remember what it is called, but it has a big patio and a lovely indoors. Food served is country-upscale, stuffed sole, lamb chops, that sort of thing.
