A Taste of Canada. Eden at The Rimrock Resort (Banff, Canada)
I really wanted to get some foie gras while I was in Canada, and a quick search landed me at Eden Restaurant at The Rimrock Resort in Banff. This is white tablecloth service rarely seen in Los Angeles. We got a table by the window with a view of the mountains. Dinner starts with the server bringing the champagne cart.
Our first amuse bouche was a fried duck confit served on a pine log.
The bread basket was served with Hay smoked butter, whipped olive oil w aged balsamic, goat's milk butter. The most interesting of the bread was the Flax seed bread.
More amuse bouche: Alaskan king crab and confit beef tongue. I loved the confit beef tongue.
First course: Juniper smoked sturgeon on top of rock coho white salmon, Bloody Caesar sorbet
