Comments: "While in Sarnia, Ontario, on business, I stayed at the Village Inn and had dinner at its restaurant, Monet"s Table," says Melanie Cooke of Calgary, Alberta. "I thought I was being adventurous when I ordered the mussel appetizer my first night there. Obviously I"d lost my sense of adventure when I went back the second night and ordered it again."
