“ I stopped by earlier this week for a late lunch, and to critique their beef. Since I butcher beef for a living and have a passion for grilling, I like to discuss cooking practices with my customers. Firstly, the steak I ordered rare came exactly as requested and the young lady had it perfected in 4 minutes! But, regarding the roast beef let me be blunt: the common Mennonite mistake is to overcook roast beef, including yours. One common question I hear--"How do you make it tender? Even after slow cooking all night it's still chewy" My answer: monitor the internal temp with a probe. 140 for rare and 160 for well done. If it hits 180 it's already lost most of the flavour and when it reaches the forbidden 212 degrees, it turns dry as a biscuit. Unless if it's got lots of fat cover & marbling, in which case it's more forgiving. It's hard to guess internal temp, as the size of roast makes all the difference in cooking time, so always probe it to be sure. When cooked right, you should be able to smoothly cut eighth inch slices with a chef knife, which fold over rather than crumbling apart between the grains. Now, I might let it slide in the name of traditional Mennonite cooking but I saw the tag above the serving bar which said "baked to perfection" so I'm hoping to overhaul your definition of perfection Thanks for listening to my rant. I'm still giving 5 stars for the overall experience and the other menu items, especially the steak! And the Christian values, which is a good salt to the whole community. Aaron Wall ”
“ After hearing about Pebbles from a co-worker I decided to take my sister to check it out. I live in London, On so it takes about 2 hrs to drive there. Let me tell you - it was absolutely worth the drive! The staff is cheerful and so ... ”
“ Where do I start? My sister Charity and husband Brett wanted to take us for dinner a few years ago. They said that we were going to the”best buffet that you will ever have”. That’s a pretty tall order because this cats been around the block a few times and eaten all over North America. I hardly think the food in this little town in the middle of nowhere is that good... common Well holy blessings from heaven above this place ended up being just that. You are greeted at the front door by a friendly face and nice smile. Next you will be seated in a gorgeous dining area. The best part is the food though. A massive buffet of Canadian cuisine is waiting for you fresh and homemade. Everything is made from scratch and the meat is raised right in the area by local farmers and smoked on site. To say this meat and poultry is better than average is a vast understatement. The texture is chewier than normal meat because there are no additives or protein pump. It’s fresh and the animals cared for in the best possible way. The pork chops are cut thick, smoked wonderfully and then finished on the BBQ. The sausage is to die for, made and smoked fresh and then finished on the open flame. Steak served the way you like it. Homemade bread and desserts of all kinds. Cheese cakes, coconut and apple pie , rhubarb crisp; they have an ice cream machine with all the toppings. My first time there I hadn’t tried anything and was still at first glance not impressed. I saw meatloaf on the buffet and laughed. Who puts meatloaf on a buffet? I had to try this, my sister and her husband must be crazy. I got to my seat and started to eat. Every bite was like I was tasting the way things are supposed to be made for the first time.... I couldn’t believe it! I got to the meatloaf and ate my first bite. It was like heaven in my mouth and God talking to me telling me to go eat more. It’s so tender and the taste was different than I had ever had before. It was like cabbage rolls and meatballs and meatloaf in one bite... I could not believe it! Miracles do happen! I went up for seconds at a buffet for MEATLOAF! Wow my brain was hurting. What was going on here? I left the restaurant in awe and shock. Never before had I had such good food. They also have a store that sells preserves, meats, ready to eat meals, fudge, cheese of all varieties fresh, gifts and cards. Baked goods line the shelves, pies are on display for sale and all kinds of fresh bread. There’s a play area outside for the kids. The bathrooms are spacious and cleaned regularly. There’s a baby changing area. We officially had a new favourite place and I have to recommend you stop in for a bite my friends! Mmmmmmmmm yummy, yum, yum! Your mind will be blown and your mouth and body will thank you! Peace and love and blessings my friends. Enjoy ”
“ I really enjoy eating at this restaurant. The food is very delicious. I like the salad bar, broasted chicken, homemade burger and the pecan pie the best. The apple cider is good, too. The service is always good. Today the lady who served our table is Lindsey. She is so warm and friendly. The restaurant store is worth visiting as well. ”
“ It was a unique buffet experience with exceptional food in regards to taste, quality and variety. Furthermore, the desserts were phenomenal. I also liked the Christian music that was playing. I found encouragement in a number of the hymns which were favourites I've known since a child, but have not heard in many years. "Nearer, Still Nearer" was one of them. I had a wholesome and very enjoyable experience here with my friend and will definitely be coming back! ”
