Our Story

In 1979 Rose Richardson and Zal Yanovsky renovated an abandoned limestone stable and launched a dining experience that blends grace and gusto, taste and imagination – and has been a destination for food lovers everywhere. Tucked away in the heart of downtown Kingston, “the Pig” as it is affectionately known, is the perfect choice for afternoon cocktails on the courtyard patio, your family celebration, a night out with friends or a romantic dinner. Our menu is inspired by the flavours of world travels and we are dedicated to bringing the freshest, locally sourced produce to your table. Rich with history and a vibrant atmosphere, a healthy appetite for simple abundance, a family run local favourite ~ this is Chez Piggy.
