Save Room!

Dessert at our newfoundland resortHere’s a friendly reminder – if you’re Dining at The Doctor’s House tonight, be sure to leave room for dessert! Our fine dining experience takes about 3 hours, with plenty of time to savour each of your three courses, plus the fresh bread and the amuse-bouche (single, bite-sized hors d’œuvres to cleanse the palate) between each. We’ve enjoyed Executive Chef Stephen Pynn’s creations many times over, and always enjoy the experience.

This dessert is The Berry’s favourite – Dark Chocolate Marquise with Newfoundland and Labrador sea salt and citrus creme fraiche. We also have homemade Sour Cream Donuts with Screech caramel and thyme (my daughter’s favourite), and a Cheese Plate with artisanal cheeses, candied nuts and wild berry compote (my favourite).

Dining at The Doctor’s House is open to everyone – not just overnight guests – but we do ask that you call 709-582-2754 to make a reservation. Perhaps tonight is the night you indulge! Happy Saturday!

Chris Chafe’s First Weekend

DIning Room at our Newfoundland resort inn and spaWe’re happy to report that our new Executive Chef for The Doctors House, Chris Chafe, just finished his first full weekend, and it went swimmingly. He has a fabulous new Spring Menu that is fresh, locally sourced, and delicious (his homemade desserts are especially tempting!). We’re very happy to welcome to Chris to our Ocean Delight family, and we know he’ll continue to delight our guests with his work.

As a fan Antonio recently wrote on our Facebook page on hearing of Chris’ new position with us: “Congratulations Doctor’s House Inn and Spa! You have a very talented and hard working chef. The perfect compliment to your beautiful establishment. Newfoundlands hospitality is sure to shine with the local sights and sounds as well as the culinary artistry of Chef Chris Chafe. Hope to have the opportunity to experience it for myself!” We couldn’t agree more!
