Overlooking Lake Rosseau is Teca, a fine Italian restaurant located within the luxurious Rosseau Resort & Spa. Surrounded by the natural beauty of the Muskoka Lakes, find this decidedly urban dining room of dark hardwood floors, leather club and Parsons chairs and a centrally-located open kitchen that dishes up authentic rustic Italian fare. Tuck into freshly made pasta—from papperdelle and gnocchi to spaghetti and meatballs—or thin crust pizza made in a wood-stone oven, as well as veal chops, fish, striploin and rack of lamb. Or opt for a family-style meal with heaping platters to be shared with new and old friends. To accompany the perfectly-prepared cuisine, oenophiles can choose from an extensive wine list with numerous selections from Italy. The professional staff is well-versed in the red and white offerings and can expertly recommend the right bottle to compliment any meal.
