Becoming year-round business
Completing expansion at Oakwood
By Roberta Walker
GRAND BEND - Dave Scatchard
is putting the finishing touches to
the renovations of Oakwood Inn and
says "it's all coming together, after,
quite a financial gamble".
Recent changes have gone a long
way to ensuring the future success
of Oakwood Inn as a year-round
business, and reservations arc com-
ing in, particularly for conventions
and business meetings.
Barbara Gower, of "Barbara's Nat-
urally" brings a reputation for-ex-
cellent
orcx-
ccllcnt food to the Oakwood Dining
Room. She combines natural foods
and herbs with haute cuisine to de-
liver meals to satisfy the most dis-
cerning palate. Flexibility is the
rule, and the diner can order smaller
portions, or special diets for food
allergies or other health problems.
Some of the entrees include gen-
erous servings of mouth-watering
Italian lasagna, eight and 12 oz.
steaks, barbecued ribs, or trout al-
mondine.
A rare treat is her Italian chicken, -
stuffed with ricotta cheese, spinach
and herbs, a gourmet's delight!
For different tastes, there are
natchos, freshly made with beans,
meat and/or chcesc, served with
both hot and mild picante sauce.
The salads arc large, topped with
her special Honey Vinaigrette dress-
ing, and the desserts are fresh from
her bakery. She's building up a
good.wine cellar, and expects a per-
manent menu by October 1, with
all of the present features, plus a
Catch -of -the -Day.
Gower has some plans for the
winter months as well, including a
monthly dance, with live bands pro-
viding that "Big Band" sound of the
'40s.
There'll be a blazing fire in the
fireplace, and hearty stews, com-
plete with dumplings, to chase
away the cold. -
Gower feels that she is "the direc-
tor of a movie with a great cast",
her crew of workers, who provide a
memorable dining experience for
her patrons.
She has always been interested in
cooking - her Danish grandmother
was cook for a wealthy family, and
her parents always served natural
foods and baking.
She was an interior decorator in
Detroit for 10 years, with a talent
for cooking which blossomed into a
—full ti career when she and her
husband Lonnie, vcd-to-Canada
and bought the old "For Goodness
Sakes" store.
Gower will still be providing a
full catering service, for which she
does all the cooking, with a full
staff at her store.
Over at Oakwood Inn, the com-
pleted lobby exudes a blend of
warmth, charm and quiet sophistica-
tion to Welcome the weary traveller.
The indoor pool offers jacuzzi and
sauna facilities in a beautiful set-
ting, and a massive stone fireplace
in the corner is to fight the chill of
winter.
The Inn may no longer have to
depend on lake conditions for swim-
ming, but Oakwood beach is still
the best place to get a tan.
The rooms for the Health Club
facilities arc nearly ready, and the
equipment will be installed in the
near future. That *ill include a
nine -station Universal- Wcight-
Lifting Machine, a treadmill, exer-
cise bikes, and a pool table.
Oakwood will be able to offer
everything. available at the finest
Toronto hotel, while situated out in
the country, with its renowned golf
course, exclusive beach, and fine
dining room. That sounds just like
a five star, world-class resort estab-
lishment, as owner David Scatclierd
intended all along.
• CHIEF CHEF - Barbara Gower is in charge of the menu in the Oakwood
Inn restaurant.
