This is an example of about how it doesn’t ever hurt to ask.
We were heading back to Calgary for a short weekend visit and of course I wanted to try a newer restaurant that I’d never been to. But because H had outgrown his travel tie chair and I didn’t want to lug a [...]
It seems the owners of Muse and winebar (and AKA) are intent on taking over the corner of Kensington Road and 11th Street with the opening of Brasserie Kensington.
The new restaurant is right above winebar, where an interior design store used to be. It’s been transformed with the requisite dark wood tables, chairs and [...]
Less than a month into its existence, loungeburger has surprisingly few kinks and a lot of juicy burgers, as I wrote in this week’s Metro Calgary review.
The Kobe beef burger ($20) is worth the hefty price tag, with a tender wagyu patty, Applewood cheddar and horseradish aioli.
The pretzel bun is a thing of wonder. [...]

Disclosure: This dinner was part of the Eat Local, Eat Real food blogger sessions, organized by a marketing company representing Hellmann’s. There was no obligation or contract that required me to write about it.
Globe Bistro‘s raison d’etre is prominently displayed on its menus and website: “Think global. Eat local.” So it was a perfect [...]
The weather is nice enough now for some leisurely weekend drives. Check out the Canadian Rocky Mountain Ranch, southwest of Calgary, that provides hormone and antibiotic-free elk and bison to the three resorts and four Calgary restaurants, including Divino, owned by the same company.
You can buy the same meats yourself at their on-ranch store, [...]
I left my camera at home last time I went to Blink. I made sure to bring it this time for Gwendolyn’s birthday dinner.
Our party of 10 sat in the private dining room, which was a very comfortable, large square table so we could all talk to each other. The food and service were [...]
It took me til the end of the summer to stumble upon the best patio in the city — and I completely forgot to take a photo of it! Argh.
River Cafe has, I dare say, the perfect patio. Large, strategically placed umbrellas provide shade pretty much everywhere and its location on Prince’s Island Park [...]
