I'm not from Calgary and my chef/foodie friend has been recommending Model Milk to me every single time I go visit Calgary. I finally went and I cannot wait to go again!
We took the immediate and extended family out for a celebratory dinner on a Saturday evening. The place was packed and while I didn't find it overly loud, my parent's sure did. They also found it a little dark (dad had the candle up against the menu to read, lol- oh boy!)
We started with the calamari which isn't anything like your typical calamari - it isn't deep fried and has edamame and croutons in it too! I had the beer cheese and donuts entree (their vegetarian entree) and it was freaking amazing. I highly recommend.
The table beside us ordered the Brisket and it looked incredible - that'll be the next thing I order when my guy and I come down (because I am MAKING him take me so he can experience this place)
There was a large drink menu and the drinks looked super tasty! Though I had already been drinking wine beforehand so I just continued with that.
Their apple pie is incredible - seriously, even if you don't have room for dessert - get it, your taste buds will thank you.
Our server was fantastic- super knowledgeable and seemed to be having a ton of fun with our table. I cannot wait to come back for my next dinner!
