Underwhelming Nanaimo Bar — expected more

I was looking forward to Nanaimo Bar here based on the reputation. The reality was disappointing. The rich and indulgent character that makes this dish special was muted — either from shortcuts with wild blueberry or from scaling up production at the expense of quality.

maple syrup production is a seasonal Quebec ritual celebrated at family sugar shacks. The a prairie farm breakfast setting I was hoping for wasn't quite there either. maple latte was available but not suggested appropriately. I've had much better versions elsewhere. Two stars because the dish concept is sound; the execution let it down.
