Racine's

Racine's is one of the best restaurants that I ever been to in Fredericton. Located in the heart of downtown Fredericton on Queet St., it has a lot to offer on its lunch menu. Price ranges between $10 and $14 for a main course, which is pretty decent, given that fresh ingredients are used and presentation is simply marvelous.

Burgers, sandwiches, wraps, flatbread pizzas, Asian bowls etc. have their ways to fit your taste. I've been here for lunch a few times and tried the chicken burger, sandwich, and flatbread pizza. Just like always, I tried something different this time - the Asian bowl. With a choice of mild/medium/hot, egg noodles/rice pilaf, chicken/beef/shrimps, I ordered hot egg noodles with chicken.



The Asian bowl for $11.



Fiona ordered the Chicken Burger.



Stephanie had the Philly Steak Sandwich.




Renée had the Beef Wrap.


Tracy had the Cordon Bleu Sandwich that was new on the menu. "Cordon Bleu" is a French term, literally translated as "blue ribbon," that originally referred to an award for culinary excellence given to women cooks! The term can now apply to any superior cook (yes, men too), and also to this dish (chicken, ham and Swiss cheese slices, breaded and sauteed).
