THE JUDGE
Newly opened in Collingwood! A pasta bar with grace & gusto.
From award-winning restauranteur Jonathan Gushue and Jennifer Belanger (The Gate, Flesherton) comes an approachable pasta bar nestled in the Cranberry Mews building. A selection of 5 - 6 handmade pastas, salads, bread and desserts inspired by Jonathan's culinary education as a child with his father.
But who is The Judge? A crochety man named James Gushue, Jonathan's father. Known to be relentless in his quest for the perfect carbonara including an incident where a failed attempt hit the wall. A lover of MFK Fisher, Roman women and toothpicks, The Judge is a nod to the former Chief Justice of Newfoundland's love for everything Italian.
Known to friends and passerby's at the grocery store as 'The Judge.'
If one must eat to live, do it with grace and gusto. - MFK FISHER
