Local organic fare was served, wine was poured and the space was a buzz with support from community, family and friends. Friday was a great start for the Grand Opening Weekend at Maison Reve.

Au Revoir

Yesterday Yasmine said Au Revoir to 11 Throckmorton Ave, the space that's been home to Maison Reve for the past 6 years. The charm and beauty of the space we've inhabited will never be forgotten and we hope to take some of its character and spirit with us to our new location, just down the street at 108 Throckmorton. This Year brings lots of change and growth and we hope whoever moves into 11 Throckmorton experiences the warmth of community that we've shared there over the past 6 years. With renovations wrapping up at 108, we are excited to fling open our doors for the opening on the 10th with a fresh yet seasoned look and attitude in the new home of Maison Reve. Merci, No. 11 for all your charm and beauty...we will miss you!
