Whitby

About the restaurant

The Springwood can be summed up effectively as a neighborhood restaurant, whose values, regarding the menu, focus greatly on locally sourced ingredients, hyper-seasonality, regenerative farming practices and minimizing waste.

The restaurant is the brainchild of local entrepreneurs Matthew Simpson (Chef) and Jasmine Lee (General Manager). Partners in business and in life since 2007.

To further their knowledge of the Hospitality industry they made their way to Downtown Toronto, where they were able to hone their crafts working in upscale and well-known restaurants for nine years. The end goal was always assured though, that they would come back to the town that gave them their start and help bring a special space to the place that they grew up.

As you make your way inside, you will be met with warm wood, lush plant life and funky art deco accents. We want this space to feel as though you are stepping into our home and we welcome you all to Come Over for Dinner.

Exeter

About the restaurant

WE LOVE LOCAL. YOUR FARM TO TABLE HEADQUARTERS.

Now well into our third decade in business, Eddington’s attributes the restaurant’s success to creating flavorful and creative meals consistently using the best of Huron County’s bounty.
Owner James Eddington states “we are so blessed to be living in such an agriculturally rich area of the world”.
Although the local food movement is really starting to take off, it has always been the driving force in Eddington’s kitchen. A menu that changes frequently, as each season inspires the delicacies our region has to offer.
Eddington’s occupies the original Carling homestead (built in the 1870’s). After two major renovations, an addition of the a new dining room and a serene outdoor backyard summer patio, the restaurant has a clean and modern look while maintaining its traditional and warm feel.

Not a huge fan of the new menu items. Bison, duck, liver and lamb constitute half of the menu options. Chose the Fogo Island cod which was overall bland. The only brightness came from pickled mushrooms which were a bit sharp tasting in contrast. Somehow it just didn't hang together with any complexity. Served without a starch option, at $44.00 it felt steep. The service, ambience and, of course, the signature cocktails mean we will still be back, but look forward to different and/or additional menu items.

Very positive experience. Service was very friendly and attentive. Glasses were never dry and food came out quickly. The focaccia bread they give was fresh, soft, delicious and a nice touch. Tuna appetizer was one of the best pieces of tuna I’ve ever had. Very delicious. They did a great job preparing a variety of flavours and textures on that plate. Portion was quite small but fair for the price. The contrary for the risotto balls and crab cakes we got, as the portions were massive and a great value for their delicious taste. I had the rack of lamb entree, and it was my first time ever eating lamb. It was quite a wonderful meal and came with fresh veggies and a very silky serving of mashed potatoes. My fiancé had the 12oz black angus strip steak and it was arguably the best cut of meat that either of us have ever had. It came with veggies and a very nice risotto. We finished our meal with their skor cheesecake and that was such a delicious, sweet treat. Fantastic experience.

About the restaurant

The cuisine at Langdon Hall starts with looking out our kitchen windows. It is inspired by the seasons, wild produce growing in abundance on the property and the bounty of our kitchen gardens. Relationships have been built with our community farmers, foragers and artisans who hold similar beliefs of providing wholesome natural products that have been prepared with care and respect.

We create dishes with purpose, embraced with a story behind each relationship and provide a taste of the terroir of Langdon Hall. All the ingredients combined, create an experience like no other, so grand, so captivating that it is impossible to forget. As the seasons change, the menu changes to reflect the reaps of the harvest.

We had an incredible experience at The KTCHN today, thanks in large part to Breanne’s outstanding service. From the moment we were seated, she was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. We enjoyed the oysters, whipped ricotta, Thai mussels, lobster club, and chicken bowl—every single dish was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. Breanne was knowledgeable about the menu, offered great suggestions, and made sure everything came out perfectly timed. She’s a fantastic addition to the team, and her energy and professionalism really stood out. We’re already looking forward to coming back and seeing her all summer long!
