Billed as Winnipeg's "winter fine dining experience," RAW:almond is a temporary restaurant located ON the frozen mouth of the Assiniboine and Red Rivers. The third annual installation is designed by UK's OS31.

OS31 intended the X-shaped structure, made from pipe scaffolding and white plastic tarp, is meant to symbolize the confluence of the two rivers near downtown Winnipeg. Two of the arms of the "X" feature dining tables, while the other two serve as the entry/bar and the kitchen.

RAW:almond runs until 11 February 2015.
