| - As I do in new cities I move to, I wanted to try out the top ten restaurants in Calgary...This was my second restaurant in the top ten, and I am blown away by everything here.
I tweeted about my excitement of going there with a friend, and when we sat down in the Oyster bar (in a booth) they came right over and offered the "tweeters" some Prosseco to start our dinner off. Well, happy girl, I LOVE sparkling...
We ordered some oysters (comes with a Mignonette, hot sauce, lemon or horseradish) soo you get to pick your poison. I would suggest skipping the east coast Oysters, the West Coast were WAY WAY better.
The scallop appetizer was something else we tried, and it was pretty good, came with some swiss chard salad (not sure the appropriate name but it was soo good)
For main courses, my friend ordered the Piri-Piri crusted Tuna, and it had a fantastic mix of veggies with it. Nice and meaty Tuna, but the meal was pretty light which I loved.
I ordered the King Crab and Snow Crab combo, and we shared both our meals...Takes forever to eat crab, but it was worth the effort, that's for sure.
Dessert we had some Sancerre, with their individual apple pie...DO NOT order it for one person, it's WAY too big :)
Everything blew me away...... :)
I want to go back and try everything else!
