Peasant Cookery
For years now, Peasant Cookery has been
Winnipeg's standard-bearer when it comes to
classic French techniques applied to Manitoba's
products. Chef Tristan Foucault's charcuterie
in particular, utilizing primarily locally raised
heritage breeds of pork, beef and fowl, has won
no shortage of acclaim, most-notably from the
Winnipeg Free Press' legendary and now-retired
food critic Marion Warhaft, who proclaimed in
her second last article, "my deuxième amour is
Paris, and no restaurant evokes Paris for me as
much as the ambience of PEASANT COOKERY,
and its platter of house-made charcuterie."
At Peasant Cookery Manitoban-grown vegetables
appear throughout the year courtesy of a
program of pickling and preserving, hearty
mains showcase local meats and fish, while the
Wednesday night's buck-a-shuck oyster nights are
always popular. Its adjacent cocktail bar is also
a favourite in the Historic Exchange District for
the professional after-work-crowd, and the hip set
at night.
As Warhaft alludes to, the ambiance is much
like a Parisian bistro — but one with room to
spare for larger groups. Peasant Cookery can
accommodate tables of up to 30 people and
can provide set menu options. There is also the
option to rent the entire space, which seats a
total of 80. While bus parking is not available,
they do have an area located right in the front of
the restaurant for easy drop off and pick up.
