Brewsters Brewing Company & Restaurant – McKenzie Towne

Monday, May 13th, 2013

Warm weather spell hits Calgary a few days a year – and when it does, I crave a patio setting. This time, I found myself on the roof top patio of Brewsters Brewing Company and Restaurant in McKenzie Towne. It’s located just off High Street, on the North side. The restaurant is large, but parking [...]

Sho Sushi Bar & Kitchen

Sunday, May 12th, 2013

I was in a celebrating mood this one afternoon, and I thought “what better way to celebrate than a nice sushi place!?” so I found myself at Sho Sushi Bar & Kitchen as it looks super fancy, and high end from the outside. The parking lot is a little tricky as it’s not really marked [...]

Open Sesame

Wednesday, August 15th, 2012

I was looking for a special place to go for my husband birthday. We’ve been hearing great things about the Smugglers Group chain, and we didn’t know which restaurant to try. We ended up settling for Open Sesame, for no particular reason really! Eventually, we will try it all! Parking was in the back, and [...]

Macleod Sushi & BBQ

Thursday, April 26th, 2012

All you can eat sushi is all I can say! We made it here with my sister and brother-in-law one evening after an exhausting day at the zoo. Needless to say, we were starving and figured we should eat at a place that offered “unlimited” food! This location is located on the west side of [...]

Sushi Ichiban

Thursday, April 26th, 2012

Sushi Ichiban was a neat place to go. It’s tucked away off Macleod Trail, on the East side – but it does offer a small parking lot. The nice thing about this place is the fact it is All You Can Eat which is wonderful for me, as I’m a sushi monster! I love the [...]

Koreana BBQ Restaurant

Sunday, January 8th, 2012

Ahh, something different and totally delicious!! We popped into Koreana BBQ Restaurant with some great friends to try it out and it was so good! The prices were a little high, but it definitely could be a lot worse in the city! The space was open and there were private booths along one ends and [...]

Cravings Market

Monday, June 27th, 2011

Cravings Market is truly a unique experience. It’s almost like an upscale fast food cafeteria, or food court. I’ve been here a few times for lunch, and it is really packed all the time. It’s got a huge variety of food stations where you pick what you’d like to eat, and they’d charge you by [...]

Rice For King

Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011

Everyone loves a nice bowl of Vietnamese Noodle Soup! I work on Macleod Trail in the South, and it was to my excitement everyone there loves to go to Rice For King. I liked it there so much, I’ve been back even outside of work hours! Rice For King offers an extensive selection on their [...]

Cookies by George

Saturday, April 16th, 2011

I really like taking a stroll in the mall with a little treat.  This time in particular, I wanted cookies!   I stopped for a Milk Chocolate Chunk Cookie from Cookies by George. It’s fresh enough that the huge chuck of chocolate was melty when given to me in it’s individual cookie pocket! These cookies [...]
