My favorite time to go was for buck a shuck which happens every Wednesday. They have half price charcuterie on Monday. I have a love/hate relationship with this place. When it's good, it can be very good. The food is very consistent. I'm sad they got rid of the beef bourguignon. Service has been hit and miss. They do have a new manager and the last time I went (within last week) the service was excellent. I need to go back a few more times to see if the new standards stick. I've had absolute terrible service as well which is why I couldn't give it a 5 for now (without some confirmation it wouldn't happen again)

The following is an explanation of all the recent dishes I've had and took pictures of. Berkshire Pork was done very well. There is a lot of fat on there however, so if that's not your thing, you might want to skip it. If you like pork belly you'll probably really like this. The portion is very generous. Half chicken is tasty. Meat was moist. The cranberry vinegar provides a nice and balanced contrast. The last time i had the calamari I was underwhelmed. It was a bit limp. The flavor was ok, but I've had better elsewhere. Duck Bruschetta... they did the duck very well. I'm not a huge fan of bruschetta but as a change this was nice and done well. Mussels and frites. I have to say the fries are some of my favorites. This is my style. The last time I had it, it wasn't done as well as other times, but even mediocre for its normal standard, its still better than a lot of other places. The mussels were ok. Lots were very small, but you can't control what the stock you get in is sometimes. The bread they serve with your meal is very good. They have at least two kinds. One is a focaccia and the other I'm not sure? They serve it warm. If you're eating in the bar sometimes they don't automatically serve it with your food. So you might need to ask. Clam and bacon pasta... the one time I had it, I was undwhelmed. It probably didn't help that I had been to Italian restaurants that had very good pasta... Maybe they had an off day and it was just that one dish that was not up to its standard par? It was really dry... I personally won't be ordering it again. Profiteroles and Chevre cheesecake. The profiteroles are good, but the cheesecake really shines. I love goat cheese so I might be a bit biased. They do it very well here. One of my favorite desserts. Beef brisket. Exceptionally tender, they cook it till it flakes and breaks apart easily. I asked my friend who hails from Kansas City what he thought. He said it wasn't memorable enough either way. I thought it was solidly good, but maybe not fantastic. Charcuterie is where Peasant has excelled at. Chorizo meatballs was a skip for me. I wasn't a huge fan of the flavors. Neither was my friend. He did eat it all but wasn't loving it. Raw oysters is a must for buck a shuck (Wednesdays). Though at these small sizes, I would not want to pay $3 per piece. In Winnipeg however, I don't think there's much choice if you want oysters. Having recently gone to Omaha and having oysters at Plank, I see a comparison. The Copa. Picture of the drink is actually a non alcoholic one. I was very pleased to find they had a small list of non alcoholic beverages. There were only 3 mocktails, but its still nice to be remembered (I have an allergy). This pretty much tasted like a pina colada with a bit of a modification.
