Review from Lara P.

What a great find and I could not be happier to tuck in here while I warmed myself against minus 40 temps outside! They have a great assortment of jellies and condiments. I was so pleased to find that they carried the famous Saskatoon berries jam and Prairie honey, which I bought as gifts. I also saw a nice display of organic smoked black pepper that I have used since as a wonderful accent for cooking meats. But more than that they have a wonderful selection of cheeses that have been pre-cut to make it easier for you to browse and select whatever cheese you desire. They have a very good array of Dutch, French, Spanish, English and Swiss cheeses. The great and helpful service also helps you move along and just buy everything in sight. They also have a counter filled with fresh pasta, sauces, savoury and sweet pastries and antipasto and freezer and cooler section filled with foods to go. All of these attributes would have been enough to make this place wonderful but did I mention that they have the Butcher House attached and they sell amazing cold smoked meats?!?!?! I had the pleasure of buying a couple cold smoked rib-eyes which were outstanding. I am so pleased that I carried them home to Toronto along with the butcher's own smoked salmon. Excellent and rich. I wish we had this establishment here in Toronto. Almost worth the trip back to Saskatoon.
PS- Cold smoked does not mean using frigid temperatures to cure the meat as I mistakenly thought was possible. It is application of indirect heat to infuse flavour on the meat before aging it. -

I'm from Los Angeles and I must say, this was a gem to find. Went here on the basis of the reviews and my love for all things grocery, and loved it. Got the cold smoked chicken and cold smoked new york, as well as their pasta sauce (puttenesca and meat sauce) and two of their varied fresh made pastas (the bf wanted roasted pepper fettucine and I got the lemon dill linguini). I like the fact that if you purchase the sauce of the day, you get the equal weight in fresh pasta (your choice) for free. Then again, I'm asian, so I love all good deals :P.
Because I'm expecting the chicken to be amazing since it's gotten shout outs, my boy and I decided to try the new york steak with a side of puttanesca sauce with roasted pepper fettucine. Can you say amazing!?
First of all, the new york was perfectly flavored, leaving me wanting more... Though a little on the pricey side (at least for me), it was definitely worth every penny. It had a subtle smokey undertone to the meat and it cooked beautifully on my cast-iron plate... no extra seasoning required. The puttenesca sauce was quite flavorful, though I must admit that the fettucine was really made the side. It had a slight kick to it and really rocked the roasted pepper taste.
All in all, I'm expecting good things to come with the meat sauce w/ lemon dill linguini, as well as that cold smoked chicken. But if you're in the area, you'd be sadly missing out if you don't go to this place and buy some foodage... It's worth it. -

I just returned to Edmonton with a couple of the cold smoked New York steaks. In a word? Unbelievable. I don't know if it is just the quality of the meat, the supplier, the cold smoke, or all three - but I have never, ever, had a better steak. I barbecued in the dark at as hot as I could get my Weber, I got some flare up but just flipped them and let em do the same on the other side (about 3 minutes per) and then moved them up to the warming rack with the BBQ temp reading about 400 F for another 8 minutes. Simply the best.
