A regional cuisine favorite is Poutine. French fries, with curd cheese smothered in gravy.

A good mix between rustic and luxury.
When rainbow trout is on the menu it's usually caught locally.
The drive to get there is great for sight seeing. If you go at night you might even spot a moose along side of the road.

City advice
What to pack
A bathing suit and some pool noodles or a Kayak if you can.
Fresh, clean lakes and streams abound in every direction.
Really good fishing if you know what I know.
Travelling with kids
Huge park and playground not in plain sight
Travel south from the house on route 102 for about 400ft., down a slight hill and look on your right. The Canaan town recreational park has a basketball court, tennis courts, an exercise course/walking loop and playground structures.
