The Company
Auberge des Gallant Restaurant & Spa
1171 Chemin St-Henri, Ste-Marthe, Quebec
http://www.gallant.qc.ca/monteregie-getaway/index_ang.cfm

Nestled in a serene, wooded spot in Sainte-Marthe-sur-le-Lac, maple trees with 10,000 syrup taps surround the rustic Auberge des Gallant. The restaurant’s seasonal dishes currently include a rack of pork ($49), served with apple in a ginger sauce and crunchy tempura scallops ($49) that play nice with tender sautéed fennel in a citrus reduction. A cozy wooden A-frame houses the Maple Pavilion, which opens March through April to offer an array of maple products. Maple leaf-shaped bottles ($5–$10 for 250 millilitres) add helpful visuals to ease the awkward moment when syrup asks where it came from.

Lodging at Auberge des Gallant comes in three styles with varying décor and amenities, many of which boast wood-burning fireplaces: country rooms radiate rustic charm, luxurious rooms are outfitted with regal king-sized beds, and honeymoon rooms decorated with Victorian brocades and canopied beds maintain a sweetness parallelled only by puppies dipped in honey (regular rates run from $195 to $235 per night for a single).

Lodgers can also languish in the spa to exfoliate away dearly departed cells and lingering bits of pancake during the 80-minute maple biscuit body treatment ($125) or to evict tension to a life of suspension bridge support with a 50-minute Swedish massage ($75).

NEW FREE GIVEAWAY DRAW: $25 X 4 TEAMBUY.CA CREDITS

Our friends over at TeamBuy.ca gave me a $100 worth of TeamBuy credits to giveaway to my loyal readers. Instead of giving away a single $100 prize, I thought 4 separate $25 prizes would be better and give us more winners. Since most of TeamBuy’s daily deals are at least 50% off or more at local business, $25 in free credits can go a long ways and get you a nice meal or some cool stuff.

I will make the free giveaway draw on February 1, 2010 at 8PM and pick 4 random names from my database of readers.


Here’s how you can enter the Free Draw Giveaway:

1. All you have to do is sign up for our Free Daily Deals Mailing List. If you have already subscribed to our mailing list, you will be automatically entered into this draw and all future draws.

2. You’ll get a Free Bonus Entry if you click the “Like” button at the top of this post.

3. You’ll get a Free Bonus Entry into the draw if you become a Fan of our Facebook page.

4. You’ll get a Free Bonus Entry into the draw if you Follow Us on Twitter.

You’ll get one entry into the draw for each task. That means if do all four of the things above, you’ll get 4 entries into the draw and significantly increase your chances of winning. If you’re one of the lucky winners, I’ll send you an email to notify you. I will then need you to email me back your TeamBuy email account (you can sign up for a free account if you don’t have one). I will then pass your TeamBuy email account to the guys over at TeamBuy and they will automatically deposit the $25 credit directly into your account. Once the credits are deposited into your account, you are welcome to use/ spend it however you like and the credits will never expire.

Here’s a video of TeamBuy.ca on CBC’s Dragons Den. They got a deal with the Dragons!

Good luck everyone and thanks again for following and supporting Ottawa Deals Blog! I’ve got a lot of other free draws and great prizes coming in the near future so stay tuned!
