RESTAURANT LE POULET DORE
by Heather Brown
Peter Sampson has been one of the coowners of the Restaurant Le Poulet Doré
for ten years. His partner, Costa
Anagnostaras has been there for thirteen
years. Peter said, “We decided to go into
business together because we are both nice
guys, hard working, with the same
philosophy of business”. Their goal is to
provide a quality product, at a reasonable
price, and both of them enjoy personal
contact with their customers.
The Poulet Doré has been open since
1967, nearly thirty-eight years. When they
bought the business it was already well established, so they continued to maintain and augment the
existing customer base.
Poulet Doré is the name of the business, as
its former name was The Golden Barbecue,
which started out serving barbecued chicken.
Later, the menu was diversified to include
many dishes.
Their best seller is pizza with secret sauce.
They kept the old fashioned style of pizza from
making the dough and homemade pizza sauce,
made on a daily basis. They haven’t strayed
from the old fashioned ways of making food.
Preparing food faster is not necessarily better.
Peter and Costa believe fast service is very
important, as long as it does not sacrifice
quality. They want to maintain a warm, family
atmosphere in the dining room, always serving excellent food. There is never any pressure on the
customers, so you can stop by and enjoy your meal without feeling rushed. There are always specials in
the dining room and on the delivery menu, so keep checking on what the newest ones are. Delivery
service is a priority, as repeat business is very important.
Peter and Costa are deeply involved with the
community. They love Two Mountains and wish
to maintain what they have begun, and improve
what they can. They sponsor soccer, Peewee
hockey, softball, the Lions’ Club and other
community organizations. Everyone is welcome
to come and see what kind of service is offered at
the Poulet Doré.
