I'm from the West Coast and a lover of seafood but I usually stick with salmon or halibut dishes, scallops, prawns, that sort of thing.  I've only had trout a couple of times, the last time being more than a decade ago, so perhaps it was time to give it a go. 

The soup was excellent, i've always been a sucker for French Onion soup and it did not dissapoint.  The trout came next, served with vegetables and a slice of Taber corn and it was indeed delicious.   I pass on Thom's recommendation happily.  Try the trout!
