- 18 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tues. February 17, 1987 New restaurant opens its doors If you are getting tired of driving for miles to find a restaurant where the family can enjoy great food in a nice atmosphere at prices that aren't going to break the budget, we've got just the place for you, and "it's right next door. Well, almost. It is called Barbeque Heaven and it's located on Baldwin Street (Highway 12) just south of the Thickson Road cut-off, The place impresses you as you walk through the door. The interior . has been completely redone and is soothing with its warm wood walls set off by chairs and accessories in a dusty rose colour. Numerous plants and art-deco prints add to the light airy feeling of the place. But there are lots of "'nice" places around. Here it is the food that counts and co-owners Gus and James Antoniadis have kept their menu simple but good. The father- son combination takes turns in the kitchen, and what they put out is great. For luncheon there is always a soup and salad bar combination - priced at $5.50. The day there, the soup of the day was a home-made navy bean soup that put mom's to shame. Their salad bar contained 18 items including fresh ham and a gorgeous bowl of fresh fruit. A nice touch. There are lots of condiments as iS'usual, but they include the not- so-usual such as raisins and cheese. There are also light snacks such as chicken fingers and small orders of ribs and their famous chicket. wings available as well as omelettes, sand- wiches and of course burgers. Their special burger is a meal in itself and includes a quarter pound of beef top- .ped with cheddar and Mozzarella - cheese with two slices of bacor and a selection of coleslaw, dills and fries. At $4.50 how could you go wrong? BN One of the nice things about Barbeque Heaven is that they cater to the whole family. They even have a children's menu, which has a good selection for the smaller set. Con- sidering the prices start at $2.50, the onion soup, potato skins and what have you. But for a small menu; there is a nice selection of salads, should you not opt for the salad bar. They offer Caesar and Greek, in a variety of sizes, a touch more 'restaurants should opt for. Sometimes the salad is far more than someone ordering a large meal can handle. On the other hand, some diners prefer a larger salad and a smaller portion of heavier food. Barbeque Heaven, as the name suggests, specializes in barbequed chicken and ribs. The chicken comes in quarter or half*chicken dinners, or as chicken wings, or in combination with ribs. For those with a really hefty appetite, there is always 'Barbeque Heaven' itself...a New York steak with wings, ribs and a choice of accompanying sauces. A little bit of everything. Of course there are several favourites such as Veal Parmesan, diced pepper steak, rainbow trout or liver with bacon or onions for anyone who doesn't fancy barbeque. And there is a specialty of the hc ise each evening. On the particular night there, the special of the day was filet of sole at $6.95 or ham steak at $6.75. Both entrees included the navy bean soup, coffee or tea, and of course the opportunity of having the salad bar for $1.95. They will be more than pleased to cater to small private parties or groups planning a meal together, sc give Gus a call at 655-8911.
