The eight-course "fish and game tasting menu" at River Cafe, Calgary.
My current drink of choice:
A Seattle-style macchiato with a perfect rosetta.
I really wish I could:
require that chow posters never be allowed to post anonymously.
My "Go-to" dinner party dish:
I usually let my partner Brian take care of cooking!
My favorite comfort food:
Brian's mac and cheese, White Castle when I'm back home (NW Indiana)
My top 5 favorite restaurants:
In Calgary right now: El's Japanese Fusion, Chef's Table at the Kensington Riverside Inn, Han's, JAROBlue, and River Cafe. I'd sooner eat at aTaqueria Yugapeti in Walla Walla or the Döner joint at the corner of Rosenthaler and Torstraße in Berlin than at Fat Duck or El Bulli and I can't stand pretentious jerks who can't see past hype.
