An Essential Guide to Eating Your Way Through Alberta | Eater

"This bright, airy, brand-new Edmonton space from chef Daniel Costa (the Edmonton-bred, Campagnia-rooted chef behind Mimi Bar, Bar Bricco, and Bar Henry) is a temple to fresh pasta. Bright green swirls of tagliatelle are handmade each morning and finished simply with sage and Parmigiano. Raviolini is stuffed with pockets of tender lamb Genovese, and pillowy gnocchi receives a topping of house-smoked stracciatella. Save room for the striking secondi: The behemoth Florentine bistecca, a two-inch thick T-bone finished in anchovy butter, or sablefish dressed with Canadian scallops, tiny clams, and prawns. The pale, minimalist, and perfectly posh room tends to draw in a dressed-up downtown crowd, who are as much there for pasta as they are for the buzzing room and smart cocktail lists." - Kate Dingwall
