rev:text	Finally got a chance to eat in the dark last night. The concept is really intriguing and makes you aware of how dependent you are on your sense of sight. You end up depending on your other senses like touch and hearing. When you arrive, the host will take your entree order. You can do either 2 or 3 courses but you will only know what your entree is. The other two courses are surprises. I chose the lamb ragu rigatoni and my husband chose the salmon. The server will lead you into the dining room conga style where the only illuminated object is the exit sign. It's pitch black and might make you feel claustrophobic. The first course was a salad with mayo based dressing. I won't spoil what else was in the salad but it's an assortment of tastes and textures. I was disappointed by my pasta. The fact that I couldn't see it meant I could definitely tell how it tasted. It had differing hot and cold spots and the rigatoni was super soft and had broken pieces. I commented to my partner that it tasted like they heated pasta in a microwave and poured sauce from a barely warm pot. My partner's dish was more fresh than mine and the potatoes were delicious. The desserts were disappointing too. I could tell right away they weren't made in house. We had a chocolate cake and a lemon pie. When we paid our bill, our suspicion about the desserts were confirmed. They get ordered from a supplier in Vancouver. Overall it was a fun experience. However, if your sense of taste is going to be heightened in the dark, then the least the restaurant could've done was make better than average food because you can tell even more when something is of poor calibre. I left the restaurant exhilarated, yet disappointed. I feel the darkness concept is a money grab excuse for the restaurant to churn out mediocre dishes that normal restaurants in the downtown vicinity would've put more time and effort into. I don't think I'd go back again, but at least it's something I can take off my bucket list. There's so many better restaurants in Calgary to tickle your taste buds and you don't need to sit in a dark room to enjoy it.
