Truffle's Bistro and Pattisserie

Celebrated Sept 13/08 at Truffle's Bistro and Pattisserie 230 21st Street East in Saskatoon; a family owned & operated elegant Bistro. They used to be on Early Drive and I enjoyed a few meals there so wanted to check out their downtown location - we were not disappointed. The atmosphere is very relaxing and can be romantic. Service was very attentive and timing of the courses was just right.
If
you are looking to fill your belly for $20, this is not the place for you - try the all you can eat buffets. If however you want to taste true Saskatchewan fare, exquisitely prepared then enjoy Truffles. Your taste buds will thank you.


Smoked salmon appetizer was soft and delicious.


I had the Northern Pike with wild Saskatchewan mushrooms
with organic vegetables and Saskatchewan wild rice.
The fish was wonderfully tender - cooked perfectly.

For dessert, we shared a piece of Japonaise torte.
Recommended by Jorge, our waiter - delectable. We shared, but had I ordered my own I would have eaten it all and regretted it. I don't want to think about the calories in this fabulous dessert.

White wine we shared - very smooth and light ...
Villa Teresa: (Organic) Pinot Grigio, Italy 2006


We will be back for our anniversary in October... if not sooner.

I had the opportunity to visit Truffles again the other night and this time with several co-workers from Denmark and Brazil. Walleye was the featured fish and it was a hit with all who tried it. What a great opportunity to share some great Canadian cuisine from local suppliers, with my visitors.
Our waiter was very attentive. A good time with great food!
