Breakfast Service Breakfast at Newboro House starts with a cold glass of juice and a dish of fresh or fresh-cooked fruit. Yoghurt and our signature granola are always available on the side. Light and tasty muffins, scones, cinnamon buns, or biscuits then arrive warm from the oven for savouring with your morning coffee or tea. Before too long, the main dish follows — perhaps a tasty frittata, a silky quiche, or our special Cointreau-flavoured baked French toast. We guarantee that you'll leave well fortified for your day of outdoor recreation or sightseeing. Meeting Your Special Needs When we greet you on arrival, we always spend a little time asking about your preferences and dislikes and about any allergies so that we can tailor our breakfast service to your needs. We can easily accommodate vegetarian, celiac, diabetic, and low-carb diets. If you have special dietary needs, please tell us at the time of booking so that we can plan appropriately. We also try to fit the timing of breakfast to your schedule. We’ll serve our regular full breakfast at any time you choose between 07h00 and 10h00. If you need a particularly early getaway, let us know, and we’ll leave the coffee pot on a timer, muffins on the table, and juice and yoghurt in the mini- fridge so that you can help yourself.   Local Food Ann believes in using simple, fresh ingredients to prepare homey dishes full of natural flavour. She is proud to be affiliated with Local Flavours, a program of the Frontenac Arch Biosphere Reserve, and to obtain most of her ingredients from local growers through Wendy’s Mobile Market. All of her baked goods are made at home by hand and all contain at least 25% (and often more) whole-grain flours, including wheat, rye, corn, barley, flax, and quinoa. Other ingredients include fresh and fresh-frozen fruits and vegetables; local maple syrup; eggs from free-range chickens; heart-healthy vegetable oils; pure butter, milk, and cream; transfat-free margarine; and quality coffee and teas — regular, herbal, or decaffeinated, your choice. Return to top Trade Breakfast for Lunch If you prefer to have just a cup of coffee or tea before heading out for morning fishing or an early golf round, we’d be pleased to trade our full breakfast for a light lunch of a sandwich on our home-baked bread, accompanied by a bowl of freshly made soup or salad. Just let us know at the time of booking if you would like to make this trade. Return to top Box Lunches to Go For a reasonable additional charge, we’ll happily provide you with a packed hiker’s lunch (sandwich, fruit, trail mix, beverage) or a more substantial picnic feast (entrée, one or more salads, homebaked bread, dessert, beverage). Please give us at least 72 hours’ notice to make the necessary preparations. Pricing varies. Return to top Homestyle Dinners (post-Thanksgiving to May only) Make your post-Thanksgiving cool-weather weekend or weekday getaway complete with a cozy dinner served just when you want it after a day of hiking, skiing, snowmobiling, skating, or ice-fishing. For $29 per person (plus HST), enjoy an appetizer, a main dish with appropriate accompaniments, and dessert. Start by choosing the foundation for your main course: chicken, beef, pork, lamb, seafood, pasta, vegetarian. From there, we can make suggestions from among dozens of possible dishes, such as Chicken Bonne Femme, Ann’s Swiss Steak Casserole, Brined Pork Chops with Apple-Cream Gravy, Lamb Curry, Spaghetti with Marinara Sauce or perhaps Eggplant and Mozzarella Pasta (for those who need carb-loading in advance of an athletic event), and for the vegetarians, Wine-Glazed Vegetables in a Piecrust or a Chickpea Curry. Or ask us about some of the many other mouth-watering dishes in Ann’s repetoire. Appetizers and dessert will be matched to the main dish that you choose. And why not bring along a bottle of your favourite wine to complete the meal? (Sorry, but we’re not licensed to sell alcohol.) To allow us to make the necessary preparations, dinners must be reserved at least 72 hours in advance of the expected meal service. To make sure that you can enjoy seasonal produce from local farms, reservations at least 10 days in advance are recommended.
