  • My first bistro experience in yyc and let me tell you, it was the most fantastic meal I've had in a long time. To say I damn near died and went to heaven after my first bite of Foie Gras would be and was an understatement. I savoured every morsel, and cried when the plate was finished. I felt like Degas himself prepared the dish. I had never before tasted something quite so divine. The Tempura Escargot were equally delicious - I wont say the word battered - because it was so light, the flavour of the escargot shone through the tempura - not taking anything away from the dish whatsoever. The pea purée complimented the escargot perfectly, making this dish a great start to any meal. When it came to the main course, my friend decided that she wanted to split it between the two of us, which meant we had to be ever so diligent in our choice, and after much agonizing I decided on the Ricotta gnudi, courgette purée, chèvre, truffle honey crouton with duck confit as our main course. Gnudi (pronounced "nu-dee") is a type of gnocchi made from ricotta cheese and a little bit of flour. The result is a dumpling that some describe as "nude" ravioli, or filling without the pasta -- that is to say, light, fluffy, and creamy. I have never had gnudi before - I am a HUGE fan of gnocchi, and I was pleasantly surprised at the slight differences the dish had to its potato brethren. The courgette and chèvre completed this meal perfectly. A true ingredient symbiosis. The Avec Bistro menu is seasonal, and what we enjoyed on that perfect September evening may not be found on the current menu but I highly recommend; whether you are a seasoned veteran to the Calgary food scene or simply passing through - to go and enjoy the atmosphere, the service and most importantly - the food. It is indeed glorious - and a place I cannot wait to visit again.
