前幾天在 Facebook 上看到某意大利 Deli Cafe 的 Garganelli with braised duck, cheese fondue, pickled chantrelles, 我這鴨痴就是比這道菜吸引住心神,所以今天便抽空去試一試這小店的意粉,到達時大約是下午三時半,幸好在鋪前找到一個泊車位,泊了一小時

此小店雖然說是在 Gas Town, 但她卻不是在 Gas Town 的中心,她是在 East Cordova 街頭 (68 East Cordova, Vancouver, BC ),假若不是朋友介紹的話,每次駕車經過也不知道

當我推開 Cafe 的玻璃門後,我先被鋪在地上的綠色地毯及那個充滿著新鮮香草的凍櫃,之後更被那些五花八門的食物在專櫃中弄得我心怒花放,怎樣也估不到此小店,麻雀雖小,五臟俱全,她的 Deli Counter 有很多 House made 的新鮮意粉、Preserved Meats (Pancetta, Porcetta, Duck Confit), Olives, 芝士及三文治及其他甜品, 不單加此,在乾貨部則有一些高品質的 Oliver Oil, Vinegars 及 Flours 等

充滿著 Fresh Herbs 的 Fridge

自家製的意大利醃肉

Freshly Made Pasta

Olives 也有得賣

看完了所以陳列品後,我乖乖的找一張枱子坐下來,之後十分 friendly 的 waitress 為我送上是日 menu 及飲品 (free ice water on the house), 當我仔細看過 Menu 後,不見到有 Garganelli with braised duck, 當我問過 waitress 後才得知今天沒有這張菜,當然有點失望,不過前菜有 smoked duck salad,所以便先叫這道 Salad 先

簡單的佈置

不太花巧的 Table settings

Smoked Duck Breast Salad with plums and picked walnuts

不消一會, Smoked Duck Salad 就出現在我眼前,顏色十分誘人, 那些 Plums 可以中和 smoked duck 的肥膩,而那些 spiced walnuts 加火箭菜則「開」了小弟的胃,之後再問 waitress 小姐廚房今天有沒有 fresh Papparadelle Pasta,她告知我沒有,但好人的 head chef, Chris,問如果我有時間的話 (需時15-20分鐘),可以立即製作出 Freshly made 的 Papparadelle, 最後我告訴 Waitress 小姐我要一客 Fresh Pappardell with extra garlic cream sauce (no meat and no cheese), 這種造法是最簡單但卻是最美麗的, Chris 煮出來的作品則是香氣撲臉,十分之可口,之後還買了 150 gram 的 Fresh Pappardelle 加一隻 made in house 的 duck confit, 因為巳經飽了,所以她的甜品留待有機會下次才試

Just next door is Nicli Antica Pizzeria which is the "mother restaurant" of Vicino.

I heard a lot of good things about Sardine Can but haven't try it yet. But I like Sean Heather's restaurants (e.g. Irish Heather. all in that area).
Notturno Paninoteca is also on my "wishlist" but haven't got a chance to try it yet.

I like Nelson the Seagull but some may think there isn't enough "meat"/portion in their food. I like that building and their veggie/vegan options.

Love L'Abattoir and Wildebeest; like Cork and Fin, Boneta, Cartems Donuterie, Milano Roasters, Nicli, Peckinpah (go only if you like dry-rub BBQ. not the juicy/saucy kind); like cocktails at The Diamond (prev barman at Wildebeest now).

further down east, love Alibi Room for snacks and craft beer, like brunch at Two Chefs and a Table and then Big Lou's for meat shopping + quick sandwiches.
