Confit de Canard

Duck Confit Salad
On February 16, 2019, we travelled from Kamloops, BC along Highway 97 east to Falkland. Frank stated that for all the decades he'd travelled that route, he'd never stopped in the small community. We took advantage of the opportunity and were fixed with a great adventure.

"What is duck confit?" I asked.

The lovely waitress explained it means duck meat cooked and seasoned with herbs in its own rendered fat.

"I'll have that," Frank said.

The charm of its presentation was worth it. The Ranch Cafe itself was filled with a cowboy and rancher appeal. Hanging lampshades in the shape of stagecoaches could be purchased if you're into that style. Also, scattered about where signs indicating life as a rancher is good for the heart and soul.

The atmosphere was wholesome and upbeat. The waitress was efficient and very accommodating.

Outside the building were informative signs. One to advise you that your pet is not permitted on the balcony, another to supply it with water, one to warn the smokers to butt out and a fabulous take-your-breath-away painting of a horse-drawn chuckwagon.

After our meal, I chose to take a photo hanging on the wall inside the washroom. A drawing of a horse's head just above the toilet.

Frank found it rather entertaining.
