Edmonton Food Adventure｜Ratatouille’s Happy Place

📍 La Petite Iza 🇫🇷🐭 Finally tried this dreamy French bistro! Tucked away in a charming loft near the university, this hidden gem is small but bursting with romance—think ceiling murals, candlelit tables, and a summer patio with lovely views. Went on a packed Saturday night (definitely book ahead!). Must-Try Dishes 🍗 Coq au Vin The star of the show! A tender, slow-cooked chicken leg so soft it falls off the bone. The sauce has a sweet-savory soy-ish twist, and the mashed potatoes? Chef’s kiss. 🍷 Boeuf Bourguignon A slight letdown. The beef was a bit tough and had a faint gamey taste. BUT—the fries (added on the server’s recommendation) dipped in the red wine sauce saved the day! 🐌 Escargots à la Persillade A must-order classic! Plump, buttery snails in a garlic-parsley sauce so good we wiped the plate clean with crispy baguette. Basically garlic bread heaven. Vibe & Extras Free cookies at the end—adorable touch! Long wine list—perfect for date nights or casual drinks. Service & ambiance were flawless. Final Verdict: A cozy, Ratatouille-worthy spot for French comfort food. Skip the beef, stick with the chicken and snails, and you’ll leave happy! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4.5/5) Price: $$ (Mains ~$25-35) #EdmontonEats #FrenchCuisine #DateNightSpot #FoodieFind #HiddenGem #CanadaLife
