Check out the new Ribeye Butcher Shops (936 St Albert Trail and Manning Town Centre). Super bright and spacious, with on-site butchers ready to carve a steak to your liking. The offerings are extensive—dry-aged beef Japanese and Canadian Wagyu, pork, game, lamb, sausages and burgers, along with charcuterie, prepared foods, seasonal items and deli (the shaved ham is exceptional). And, you can pick up Bon Jour Bakery bread at the St Albert location! Wow. Enjoy a large cup of their savoury house-made bone broth and a deliciously grilled smash burger and fries.
