The dog patio menu was carefully crafted to nourish dogs without spices, onions and excess salt mindfully. It’s not good to fry the food for the dogs so everything is boiled, baked and reheated," executive chef Darryl Berntsen told CityNews. On the dog-friendly patio menu, pet owners will find options like house-smoked bacon, beef liver and rice, chicken liver and rice, as well as savory and sweet options for dessert—dessert, [bacon and cheddar ice cream](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doggy-ice-cream) made with goat’s milk or blueberry and cranberry.
