While in Banff, I invited a friend to dine with me at the 3 Ravens restaurant as it has a reputation for an exceptionally creative and delicious menu. We were treated to a savoury cheesecake presented on a slate board. A prequel to our Hor’s...d’oeuvres. We started with Braised elk terrine with sweetbreads, quail eggs, red onion jam. Beautifully plated - a flavourful starter. 3 types of gourmet butter accompanied our bread rolls. Mustard honey, mushroom and another Savoury one. At 20 per person for a starter it is dearer than most but it is unique. Next we both chose Roasted Elk Rack. The meat was rare but very tender and the accompanying vegetables (curried chickpea, on tahini paste and a layer of halloumi cheese with grilled eggplants was attractive plated with a tomato emulsion quite unique My only disappointment was the pieces of eggplant they were too tough. For dessert we chose the Haskap berry tart. Panna-cota, lemon curd, almond curd were part of the delightful tasting. Haskaps are a unique berry: the name originating from Japan for this edible blue honey suckle or honey berry that grows wild in every province except BC. Our server,Sarah, was knowledgeable about the menu, and attentive. It was a delicious eveningMore
