  • Yes, I just gave a place five stars. Simmer down. Chelsea selected Wurst as the location for this month's Boys Club, a gathering of tech/web/creative/social media women in Calgary. We were, quite fortunately, accompanied by Sarah Ward (a.k.a. @frecklesandash), the restaurant's interior designer. We sat in The Vol Room, decorated with an extremely large painting of a pig and tastefully appointed with modern lighting, seats and tables. We all remarked on the wood panels adorning the walls and ceiling. Sarah let us know the rustic approach was quite intentional, to give that old German bier haus feel, and the wood came from a 300-year-old barn in Quebec. Our server, Andrea, was fantastic. This was -- head and shoulders -- the best service experience I've had in Calgary in a good long while. She knew the menu inside and out, forward and backward. She told us when she found out she was getting hired full time, she made sure she sampled everything on the menu. She was not only knowledgeable about the menu, but she was pleasant and quick. She also apologized profusely when a beer or wine of choice was not available that evening. For the food, we started with the charcuterie and it was wolfed down in no time. Andrea explained each item on the board but the second I hear 'brie' there doesn't seem to be anything else worth eating. I. Love. Brie. Next came my schweinhauxen, or pork knuckle. Be careful with the pronunciation and do not order a sheizenhauxen, because then you'll get a shit knuckle. First the accessories ... braised red cabbage, a touch too much of pickle flavouring or something, I can't quite put my finger on it. A small dollop of clumpy mashed potatoes. So yeah, meh. But the pork knuckle was as delicious as it was HUGE. There was more than enough for a go-box and I had one happy puppy when I got home. For dessert, I went for the white chocolate mousse (yummm ... Andrea's favourite). The presentation is adorable, coming in a glass jar - complete with lid - and three cookies. It was pretty good, not very rich at all but not enough cookies to go with the amount of mousse. In all, a delightful evening. I look forward to a return visit to try the Pile of Bratwurst.
