Once upon a time when I was farming, I raised lamb, which is when I acquired a taste for this most delicious of meats. It always makes me happy to see locally-produced lamb on the menu! At the Larkspur, Sungold Lamb from Alberta is served with green peas, picked mint, and heirloom carrots. (Confession: I was a tad disappointed the lamb is only offered as a small plate.) Then I spotted the salmon main (pesto-crusted and served with roasted cauliflower, chick peas, and tahini curry) and all was well in my world again.
Local, sustainable, and in season offerings are the result of the farm-to-table philosophy underlying menu choices at the Larkspur. The charcuterie board reflects that approach with its assorted Valbella Meats, pickled veggies, spreads, and rustic bread. The result is distinctly regional and very Canadian— with a cosmopolitan flair.
