Dinner at "The Pointe" restaurant is an event for those of us who proudly call ourselves foodies.  The wine list is extensive, the culinary creativity is exceptional, the service is smooth, the location is worldly, and the view changes by the minute.
The 240 degree view takes in the marine landscape of Chesterman's Beach and Frank Island.
With a world of wine to choose from we decided to stay local with a selection from  "The Burrowing Owl Winery"
