Hey fellow Celine Fanatics!!

There a number of celebrities who own and have opened there own restaurants. To my knowledge I do not ever recall a 'Celine Dion & Rene' Resturant ever being opened.
If it was up to you what:
NAME - THEME - LOCATION & CHEFS SPECIALS MENU would you offer and recommend for such a restaurant for our QUEEN CELINE???


Im still thinking, so may put my thoughts in later!....LOL!!

Celine's mom has a resturant in Qubeck (sorry, I cant spell) bear with

[Véronyk]

Celine was associated with the Nickels, She start this restaurant in Quebec. And her families have some "franchise" (i don't now in english ??) Nickels in Repentigny (near from Charlemagne) was Maman Dion Restaurant and the Nickels in Terrebonne was Claudette's one.

Celine has the idea of the waitress suit.

Now she's no more associated with it, but at the first place Nickels was Celine and René restaurant.

Hey Véro and everyone! Here is an old 30 sec. commercial for Nickels restaurants. We can see Céline at the very end of this.

Nickels smoke meat and Céline chocolate cake were very good!

Céline singing Stand by me with Gregory Charles in the kitchen at Nickels in Montréal when she was there for a special promotion from which Céline gave money for Cystic Fibrosis.

I've been to Nickels before. It's so cool. Everything is very retro. Love it.

Well, to answer the bolded section if a new restaurant was to be openned with Celine associated with here's the info. I'd create:

Name:  Encounters
Theme: (Upscale) A restaurant resembling a theatre with a stage at the forefront.  There would be special balcony tables, floor tables, and even a couple VIP tables right on the stage.
Location:  Caesars Palace, Las Vegas, NV - U.S.A.
Entree:  Tomato Souprano: A delightfully, tasty tomato soup full of tomatos (possibly?) picked by Celine herself!  (Ha!)
Dessert:  Singers' Nightmare Ice Cream Cake:  A lavish, rich, and very creamy ice cream cake slice.  I don't know if most would understand the reason why it would be a "nightmare."  (If not the reason is because extremely creamy dairy products can wreck havoc on a singer's vocals during performance.)

If I think of more I'll post them.

[Bellamy]

Maybe Beijing Roast Duck.  I'm kidding.  

[SensationalCeline]

I'm interested to know if anyone has pictures from when they visited?  I would love to see what the inside looks like.
As for the food, it would be cool if she had cakes and appetizers and stuff made in the shape of frogs and high heels!!!!!!!!

[SensationalCeline]

That would probably be heaven for Celine too because she said she loves sweets!!!!!!!!!

HIHI, A year ago or something I had some great fantasies with a friend of mine on MSN about this.
It began with a comment of me about Celine's perfume:

Leanne: Paris Nights smells soooo good! Sometimes you wish you could drink it! But I won't do that. Celine has to come with something else. Celine Dion drinks or something.
Carolien: Yes, indeed. Of such a food chain. No mac Donalds, but Celine Dion Restaurants.
Leanne: Yessss! And not so expensive! And you'll see that everywhere by the roads. Away with the Mac Donalds!
Carolien: Yes indeed! And in the place of the big M on a post, is there the beautiful lighting Celine logo!
Leanne: Yeah! Wow, we have fantasies
Carolien:
Leanne: And inside is Celine everywhere!
Carolien: Yes, of course. Celine music, everywhere pictures and posters.
Leanne: And the guests gets a kind of happy meal with their food, with something Celinish in it.
Carolien: Yeeeaahh, A Celine doll, or a Celine in a chrysler from plastic. Or a ministage and if you press on a button you hear "I Drove All Nigggght"
Leanne: HAHAHA, a mini podium. Or a special Celine pen with light or a glass.
Carolien: Noteblocks, socks   Playingcards... And you can collect Celine points.
Leanne: Yes of course, you can collect for Celine stuff.
Carolien: A sweater or something, or a cd, a dvd, a book or a big canvaspicture.
Leanne: Yes, and you get perfumesamples always.
Carolien: Yeaahh, perfumesamples are always in your happymeal.
Leanne: Ohhh, I wish this was real.
Carolien: Then I would eat in Celine restaurants for the rest of my life. Oh yes, and you can order lettersoup. Only C's and D's.
Leanne: And little logo's. If you are a Team Celine member you get 10% discount on your food.
Carolien: Nooo, because I'm not a Team Celine member.
Leanne: You get every meal on a Celineplate.
Carolien: Yes of course, and everytime it's a surprise which picture is under your food.
Leanne: And you can hold the plate. It's including in your meal. Or isn't that real?
Carolien: Of course you can take it.
Leanne: And there is a Celine playing room for Children. With cuddly frogs etc.
Carolien: And there is a Celine karaoke.
Leanne: And special fannights with karaoke and bingo where you can win Celine prizes. And there is a room where you can marry. Where you can celebrate your wedding and dinner.

Unfortunatily this was the fantasy of two crazy Celine fans....

[SensationalCeline]

That's pretty funny!!!! If only it were true!!!!!!! I would go there every weekend.
edit: maybe you should pitch this to Rene!!!!

I don't think Celine needs to open a restaurant. I prefer her to open an orphanage or create her own foundation or charity.

Céline has already set up a foundation. It's called: The Céline Dion Foundation!!     Not kidding....

As for a restaurant name... How about calling it "PICK YOUR OWN TOMATOES!"
Italian restaurant.
