‘Magical’ Cambridge eatery makes Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants list

A local Michelin-recommended eatery with a cozy dining room overlooking gardens has made the list of Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants this year.

According to the publication dedicated to ranking the restaurants with 160 experts from across the country, Langdon Hall in Cambridge is number 15 on the list.

Located east of the Blair community, the secluded area includes a spa and the dining room with lots of windows and upscale eating opportunities.

“It’s a magical place,” Jacob Richler, editor and publisher of Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants, told CityNews in an interview. “I always enjoy dining there. It’s a very special place.”

Head chef, Jason Bangerter is the brains behind the menus that include tasting options, a specific vegan/vegetarian menu, and many different dishes inspired by the country landscape surrounding the area.

“Jason’s very talented, obviously, as have been all the chefs they’ve employed over the years; it’s an institution,” Richler said.

At the top of the list, is another more secluded eatery, this time in Jordan Station, Ont., near Niagara Falls.

Pearl Morissette is an “ambitious fine dining experience” the restaurant says on its website, that changes the menu often and focuses on regional ingredients.

Rounding out the top three is Mon Lapin in Montreal and Alo in Toronto.
