This is one of the finest dining experiences in the city, having virtually created the upscale regional cuisine category. Chef Lorna Murdoch is a talented star who uses fresh products sourced from local producers to create stunning Manitoba regional cuisine. Local ingredients are transformed into dishes like samosas with wild rice and beluga lentils, white truffle perogies with duck sausage, and paella with fish pulled from northern lakes. Owner Scot McTaggart boasts an encyclopedic knowledge of his Canadian wine selection.
