Woo, gotta love Stampede. Drove into Calgary and met up with my sister who was hanging out at Local for some after work eats. Place was packed - seems like a pretty chill place to hangout if you work downtown. They have a shuffle board (it's the new thing, get with the times yo).
Anyways, for food, I was able to get a couple bites/tastes of:
- #1 Sushi grade ahi salad ($15) - seared tuna with tomatoes, olives,
goat cheese and pine nuts. Pretty darn good idea to have ahi tuna in salad!
- Tijuana chicken caesar salad ($12) - typical Caesar salad with spiced croutons and parmesan.
- Fully loaded nachos ($18) - pulled chicken with sour cream, avocado, jack cheese and some other things. Better than your typical bar nachos.
Then for myself, I was still hungry so I ordered:
- Tuna club sandwich ($16) + yam fries ($1 extra) - ahi tuna with smoked bacon, avocado and melted cheddar. GENIUS. Ahi tuna club sandwich? Genius bar food. Oh wait, I said that already. Anyways, it was really good and pretty big portion. The sauce for the yam fries was bomb - truffle oil and like mayo aioli type dip. YUM.
Pretty darn good bar food with a cool, packed atmosphere and a shuffled board for all you people that need some entertainment while you eat/drink.
