Rostizado in Edmonton.
Holy fuck...a real restaurant in Edmonton. Times are changing.
We started off with an hour wait. They said we could drink on the patio, and order applies but nothing off the full menu. Alright, weird, but as long as I could drink with some friends I have no problem waiting at all.
Appies were decent, a little over priced, and a little under delivered. Off to an ok start, but could be better.
Margaritas were awesome. Not too sweet, fresh lime juice, good tequila.
They took us in for dinner. The owner came by, poured us each a shot of their house tequila, on the house, for no particular reason and explained the flavour profiles of it, and many other tequilas. Any memory of a slightly overpriced appy has been forgiven and forgotten.
Dinner came. We had the platter of 2 and some sides
Half of a MASSIVE rotisserie chicken dry rubbed and brined, and about 10+ oz of sliced rotisserie pork loin. Spiced potatoes cooked in fat from the rotisserie, grilled spring onions and cauliflower. A selection of house made hot sauces.
Holy fuck. So much food, so good. Chicken was nice and juicy, pork was delicious, potatoes were amazing. The hottest hot sauce was perfect.
If anyone is stuck in the shithole that is edmonton for any reason, go to this place while you are there.
I'd definitely forgo the appies and go straight for the platter. You won't be disappointed.
