The Cultural Centre Restaurant opened four months ago in the lower level of the blue-pagoda building in Chinatown. It’s run by the same people who own U & Me Restaurant and the MBA BBQ Noodle House. I’ve been there for lunch which left me less than impressed, and then I went back for a hot [...]
I fully believe the only saving grace to buffets are carving stations, where they have a big juicy roast beef with a decent gravy and an endless bowl of horseradish. And so it was with Jason’s company’s Christmas party, held in the Calgary Zoo’s new Enmax Conservatory and catered in-house. (OK, cue animal-eating jokes.) After passing [...]
It’s been a busy couple of weeks, so I’ll just throw something quick on here. Just like stopping at Tandoori Hut in Kensington and grabbing a take-out container of their lunch buffet.

Yes, the House of Blues is a chain. Yes, the gospel brunch is a gimmick. But where else can I see a real gospel choir while stuffing my face with fried chicken? Our tickets said 10 a.m. seating but at 10, we had to stand in the folk art-decorated foyer and suffer through an awful [...]
Urumqi (“oo-rum-chee”) is my Gotham City. Our first look was at night, and it was eerie how the city’s skyscrapers and towers just rise up out of nowhere. Plus it never got dark. The night sky seemed to stay a weird kind of twilight. The capital of Xinjiang is home to 1.6 million people. The [...] |
