I drove all the way from Airdrie to try this new cafe (and it was worth the drive). I met a lady who lives in the Eau Claire area and, surprisingly, it was her first time at Alforno too. We were both impressed with the food and the relaxed but upscale interiors.
The duck confit panino was awesome. I had it with a cup of coffee and, for dessert, a milk chocolate and lavender cookie. For its size and the generous duck meat filling, the sandwich could be split between two persons, I think (either that or I had a small appetite that day).
There were so many tempting choices for breakfast alone. Next time, I will try any of their pasta/wine or pizza/beer specials.
