30 - The Oakville Beaver, Wednesday August 20, 2008 www.oakvillebeaver.com Experience authentic Vietnamese cuisine at Oakville's Pho Mi 89 Oakville's new Vietnamese restaurant provides a stylish and modern atmosphere with exceptional service and food If you're looking for authentic Vietnamese cuisine in a relaxing atmosphere, you're looking for Pho Mi 89. Oakville's new Vietnamese Restaurant, located at 2501 Dundas Street East, is the place to go for delicious meals at affordable prices. For the past eight years, Owner/Manager Steven Ngo, has owned two other Pho Mi restaurants in Mississauga, one on the corner of Hurontario and Eglington and the other at the Meadowvale Centre. He says, "We had a lot of regular customers coming to those restaurants all the way from the Oakville area and they all wanted us to open up another location in Oakville so it would be more convenient for them to come and enjoy our great food." So that's what he did and this past May they opened the doors to this new Pho Mi. "We decided to create a stylish, modern, and relaxing place for the Oakville and surrounding area residences to come and enjoy some delicious authentic Vietnamese and Asian cuisine at a great price." What makes Pho Mi special is having everything on the menu made form scratch with real authentic Vietnamese and Asian ingredients. With a menu that's full of traditional dishes, there is something for everyone. Ngo says, "The food is of course delicious and healthy and you can have full meals for pretty much the same price as what you'd pay at McDonald's." This comfortable and friendly atmosphere has seating for 70-100 people. It is the perfect spot for first dates, or dinner with family and friends. "With our generous portions, an extensive menu list and fast and friendly service we look forward to serving all of Oakville. We hope that when the Oakville community thinks of great food and great value, they think of Pho Mi 89." Visit `Ritorno' for a return to traditional Italian food After 5 years together, Julia and Carl have embarked on their newest venture, Ritorno. Ritorno is what Julia calls a "return to the table, in the Italian way." - A return to traditional Italian food made and eaten traditionally, in a sharing encouraged environment. Ritorno is about stripping away the complications of modern dining, bringing things back to their basics. Fresh, quality ingredients presented in their truest forms, classic, attentive and unobtrusive service from a staff who shares their joy of their job and environment with the guests. Most important is what Ritorno means to Julia. This is her return as well having not opened a solely Italian restaurant since her first venture, Cafe Galleria over 20 years ago. She feels the time is right to bring the tastes, smells and emotions of her childhood back and present it the way she had always wanted. A big part of Ritorno is Julia's tribute, the "Nonna Wall". This wall will be a growing, ongoing homage to all Nonnas everywhere. People will be able to bring in photos of their Grandmothers, Nonnas, Bubbies and the like for immortalization on the Nonna Wall. This wall is to signify the years of loving sacrifice these women made for their friends and family with no thought of retribution. In Italian, Ritorno means To Return, and we will encourage all to do so. 10% Off Take-Out New In Oakville We Now Deliver!
