Fat Friday - Beer Bistro

We finally made it to the Beer Bistro this weekend, and what a GREAT meal!! The ambiance was very hip, and it's a good thing we made reservations (we learned our lesson last week). A couple ahead of us walked in off the street about 6:20, and was told that there was no available tables until 9:00. It's a popular place, it seems.

As you can see from the photo, there is a lot of food! We opted to have four starters to share between the two of us, and paired it with some new and interesting beers. Each of the food is cooked or flavoured with their own beers, and hence their name. Even if you're not a beer lover, I would recommend visiting the Beer Bistro. If you haven't already, a great way to do so on a budget is Winterlicious, starting on the 29th. With a fixed price menu, you are sure to enjoy a sampling of their food.

Let me share with you what we indulged in, for your drooling pleasure:

From left to right, we enjoyed: The Cheese Fondue and The Belgium Fries

Followed by The French Onion Soup Dumplings, and the Kobe Beef Tacos

And, of course, a dinner is not complete without a sweet bit afterwards. For this we enjoyed a brownie sandwich:

Overall, we walked home stuffed but satisfied. We tried some really great dishes, and also had a nice sampling of beer. I fell in love with a new beer, Ephemere Cassis, a fruity flavoured beer from Quebec, and I'll be on the lookout at the beer stores to try this one again. And we'll certainly be going back to enjoy more of what the Beer Bistro has to offer.....
