Café l’Acadie's owner Gary Le Blanc was born into a large Acadian family where both parents hail from the Acadian village of Cheticamp Nova Scotia area and with an enormous extended family, Acadian food, music and culture were the heartbeat of family life. Our home was the 'gathering place' for friends and relatives. Our mother loved to cook and growing up, I could sit for hours and listen to her
sing all the old traditional Acadians songs as she scurried about the kitchen cooking. On special occasions, I would watch in amazement at the fiddlers, mandolin and guitar players sitting around the kitchen table, while the rest would sing out loud and strong, Acadian songs of old. With Fricot on the stove, Rappie Pie and Meat Pie in the oven and desserts galore, it all fed the soul. Café l’Acadie brings many of these Acadian culinary treasures from my ancestors' kitchens to our dining room to share this rich history of delicious food. Café l’Acadie opened its doors on May 5, 2012 and is privately owned and operated. Newly renovated and serving authentic Acadian dishes and other comfort food, all prepared and cooked on site. New Menu, great prices, relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff.
