The menu is simple and straight-
forward but incredibly well executed;
from light yet satisfying salads and
wraps to decadent ‘wiches. Winnipeg’s
own City Bread builds the founda-
tion for the fresh local ingredients,

meats, favoured.

simple is sometimes best. The farm-
house club combines thick pieces
of tender chicken slathered in zesty
housemade ranch, contrasted by
crisp lettuce, and of course, plenty
of crunchy bacon between a crusty
chewy roll.
More indulgent yet, the mac and
