Another fine dining establishment

Darlene and I used to have a favourite restaurant and much to our enjoyment - it was even close by. It's not a favourite anymore. They have made unfortunate changes to the menu, the quality has waned - it's just not what it used to be and our standards are high. I won't sully their name by telling you who it is, but they're near Foothills hospital, almost next door to a Wendy's.

Anyway, I guess some of the people who used to work there up and left for a new place in Royal Oak called BellaCucina. We only noticed the place a few weeks ago, as it's a little ways from where we live. But I made it my mission to give the place a try, especially after seeing a nice stuffed chicken entree on the menu hanging on the window.

Yesterday we finally went. I was not disappointed. The stuffed chicken was fabulous and the sourdough bread was hot and yummy. They have this sampler dessert platter that looks evil. Darlene is begging me to go back real soon. She'll get no argument from me....... it's worth the drive.
