The Symposium Café Restaurants

Testimonials

December 9, 2012

Discovering a great restaurant to call your home away from home isn’t always the result of a calculated plan. Like many of life’s pleasures, finding a favourite restaurant often catches you by surprise. Take, for example, London’s Symposium Café Restaurant & Lounge at 620 Richmond Street, in the heart of the popular Richmond Row bar and restaurant district. An upscale coffee house in its past life, the Symposium Café has always been a favourite haunt of the staff here at London Ontario Golf.

But a recent metamorphosis overseen by owner Ali Safieddine has seen the Symposium Café become much more than a warm, comfortable downtown coffee and dessert emporium. It’s true, great European desserts and coffees are still the order of the day here. But you must now think of the Symposium Café as one-stop shopping for all of your food and beverage desires.

Dear Symposium Cafe Management,

Our annual staff dinner was absolutely perfect thanks to the wonderful staff at the Mississauga Symposium! From the comfortable seating, relaxed atmosphere, onto the excellent servers (thank you Ryan and Julianna!) and finally, AMAZING meal! We sampled appetizers from the new menu items recommended with the Thai Chicken Bites

being our favourite. A special thank you to John Palumbo for organizing our menu, excellent choices. For several of our staff it was the first visit to Symposium but definitely not the last!

Kind Regards, Teaching Staff at Holy Family School

Dear Symposium,

I am writing to thank you so much for your support. The silent auction was a big hit at our gala and helped our group get to Kenya.
The first part of our trip took us to Tangaza College where we took a course in African Cultural Studies and participated in field work.
On my first outing we had to locate and interview a traditional medicine man. He lived in Africa's second largest slum called Kibura.
Our travels also took us to Pimbiniet, a rural community in South West Kenya. There we worked with Kenyan Teachers, played with school children, helped build the walls for a school library and participated in many cultural experiences including a water walk with the Mamas.
As a token of my appreciation I have included a "Rafikl" Bracelet that was made by one of the Mamas who work with Free the Children.
They use their beading traditions to make objects that when sold become a form of sustainable and alternative income. This allows the mamas to work from home, take care and provide for their families. I hope you like it!

Sincerely,

Antonietta T.
