Nestled at the intersection of Prince Road and Campbell Avenue, Ghini’s French Caffe has stood as a beacon of resilience since its establishment in 1992. Chef Coralie Satta, fondly known as Chef Ghini, is the visionary owner and operator who has been at the helm since day one.

Ghini’s made-from-scratch menu spills over into La Baguette Bakery and during the month of December, holiday specials galore. Here are a few of the limited-run bites you need to try before the new year, starting off with the Noel Burger — a burger Chef Ghini refers to as “a Christmas present for your mouth.”

Holiday Specials
