Located in picturesque Kildonan Park , Prairie ’ s Edge may be off the beaten track for some , but its range of rewarding gastronomic delights make it worth the trip from any corner of the city .

Its menu presents an impressive range of options identifying the city ’ s cultural diversity and tastes of the surrounding neighbourhood . In step with the relaxing locale , this is not high falutin fare . Ingredients are familiar and still to come together for delicious and beautiful outcomes .
Pair your morning egg with perogies and kielbassa . Tuck into a Reuben made with perfect corned beef and the city ’ s beloved
ciao ! reviews
marble bread or open wide for zippy bites of a Nashville style fried chicken sandwich . Creative salad mixtures , starring mixed baby greens and kale , are fresh choices for lighter appetites .
High praise is warranted for creative use of Manitoba beets . The kitchen shows its partiality for the root vegetable two ways ; as a star ingredient in a medley of mixed greens coated in a shallot vinaigrette , roasted beets blend with tart apples , salty feta and bacon , rounded out with toasty pumpkin seeds . For a more inventive twist on the root veggie opt for the beet fritters . Crisp crimson beet laden morsels are served atop an orange flecked fennel slaw dotted with hemp seeds for an exciting mix of crunchy flavours .
Updated comfort sets the tone for dinner dishes too . Pickerel is fried crisp in tempura and paired with fries and coleslaw . Thick slices of beef short ribs enlivened by vibrant chimichurri crowd a heap of mashed potatoes and broccolini spears in this vibrant main .
Plant based dishes are equally inspired . Half a butternut squash , roasted and packed with warm kale and quinoa salad is fortified with cashews and currants for added interest . Asian noodles are loaded with broccolini , onions and mushrooms dressed in garlic peanut sauce . Wonton crisps and sesame seeds create a light garnish on the umami rich bowl .
Savour the cozy atmosphere with a few final bites of decadent chocolate hazelnut cheesecake . If you ’ re in no rush to head home , consider strapping on skates for a few laps around the frozen pond glimmering outside the window .
