Feast Café bestlist
Taste of Place
Farm to table dining, focused on sustainability is captivating foodies. Prairie flavours inspire innovative chefs to create exciting regional signatures rooted in the land and its people. Pineridge Hollow’ s picture-perfect retreat nestled in the forested countryside, sources right from its own farm. A substantial cut of
Oak Knoll pork loin, draped with a sweet tomato jam, is charred and tender. Carrots impart sweetness to accompanying risotto and roasted beets top it all. Rooted in the region’ s Métis culture, Promenade Brasserie reveals recipes and ingredients intrinsic to generations. Find delicate pemmican tartare; raw chopped beef tenderloin accented with mustard seeds, Saskatoon berries, dots of aioli, parmesan shavings. Bursts of the juicy prairie berry are a pleasing substitute for briny capers. Fusion Grill makes it their mission to find local farmers, producers and foragers and tantalize diners with thrilling dishes that change how we think about eating. Pâté made of forest mushrooms unites with wild saskatoon wojape preserve foraged from Manitoba’ s Parkland, layered over grilled house made focaccia bread. The sweet and savoury match is perfection paired with Canadian wine. Not only does Nuburger deliver on health and flavour, all beef, chicken and pork served are ethically raised in Manitoba. Beefy“ Obi-Wan Perogy” is an ode to Manitoba’ s favourite dumpling, riffing on the beloved flavours. Homemade potato chips add playful texture to local Bothwell cheddar, bacon and caramelized onions. Manitoba indigenous ingredients speak with added significance at Feast Café and Bistro, where Métis inspired cooking is brought to the forefront of Canada’ s food scene. Bison short rib, perfectly braised, shines on a plate garnished with mashed potato and squash, carrots and beans. Wild blueberry, juniper demi-glace garners blissful bites.
