Okay, it is not a 'best trip ever' or an amazing lifetime experience, only a great place to chill and have a lunch in Ottawa.

I was lucky enough to be traveling for work to our capital with a colleague who knows the Ottawa area fairly well.  He suggested we take our guests to the Dows Lake Pavilion which is at the base of Preston Street where it meets Queen Elizabeth Drive.

Malone’s is on the top of the Pavilion on the right in the picture above. The picture below shows a the view of the little harbor.

Lastly, here’s a shot of my almond crusted sole, served with a curry sauce with rice, veggies and potatoes.

Yum, yum!  Anyway, it’s a great place to check out, lunch for 4 only 100 bucks with tip. Maybe it was the beautiful day, the blueness of the sky or the mid-20s temperature, I don't know; what I do know is it was a great lunch with great company at a great location.

Happy Friday!!!

Hi Brian, thanks for this. I'm in Ottawa about once every 6 months with work. I know the area but haven't taken the time to smell the roses as it were ;-) Will definitely check it out. Looks like you had a good business lunch.

I believe I ate there a long time ago when I lived in Ottawa during one of the Rideau Canal festivals. Fond memories of Dows Lake...I lived on Rochester Street near Carling avenue for a year and a half and during the winter I used to skate to Carleton University and back for classes. But I digress. Sounds like the menu is good and great value still!!
