Welcome
Welcome to the Fogolar Furlan Club of Windsor. Thank you for visiting our
website. We hope that both our valued members and appreciated customers
enjoy all of the features and rich content found here. Enjoy your visit!
We're excited to introduce some new weekly event at the Fogolar. Each Friday night from 5 to 10pm
the member's bar converts into a restaurant, where each week
our chef prepares a different traditional meal for the patrons. Dishes include
Roasted Rabbit on a bed of Fennel Risotto, Osso Bucco on Polenta, in addition to many other
home cooked Northern Italian favourites. Specials usually cost under $15 and is an
affordable and healthy way to take the family out for dinner.
Stone-baked pizza is served on Friday nights in the member's bar as well.
The Fogolar Furlan Club of Windsor is in preparations for their 50th anniversary in 2011.
The Club has enjoyed an ongoing reputation as one of Windsor & Essex County's premiere banquet
facilities. The unique architecture of the facilities, together with the beautiful
patio and the forested picnic grounds provide the perfect setting for many special
occasions. This natural setting is complimented by extensive menu offerings
covering a wide range of Italian cuisine.
The Fogolar Furlan Club has enjoyed continuous growth since its inception.
The recent opening of the Pavilion which supports the many sport teams that
utilize the Club's facilities is the most recent addition to the Fogolar. The
considerable expansion to the Fogolar's kitchen and the redesign of the Windsor
Hall also serve as examples of the Fogolar's ongoing progress.
The name Fogolar is derived from the Friuli region of northern Italy, bordered by
Slovenia, Croatia and Austria, and is surrounded by the Alps. The Friuli-Venezia-Giulia region is made up of four provinces: Udine,
Pordenone, Gorizia, and Trieste. The Fogolar represents the hearth or fireplace which
was, and still is, the centre of family life in Friuli. For years Furlan immigrants and their descendants
in Windsor have held onto this flame and have kept the Fogolar Furlan alive and strong
in the community.
