If I mention the words "BBQ" and "Manhattan Road" your first thought might be that this post is about a new store selling some fancy BBQs. Actually, what I am talking about is Holy Smoke, a small treasure featuring traditional Southern BBQ delights for eat-in, take-out, or catering. Although the location and its external appearance seem like … [Read more...]
It's great to see some "big city" things happening in Calgary. Local bakeries offering take-home breads and eat-in delicacies are one such venue that I have always associated with the hustle and bustle of larger cities. I was therefore pleasantly surprised to see Le Boulangerie open up on 4th Street SW (Mission district) in the old Running Room … [Read more...]
It was about 2:00 p.m. on a Saturday afternoon and we had a craving for some lunch fare. After thinking about the usual suspects; all-day breakfast places, pubs, chain restaurants, we decided to try the Holy Grill. I hadn't been there for a while, so I was curious to see if it was a tasty as I remembered and I was not disappointed. Located on 10th … [Read more...]
Feeling the need to satisfy a hankering for something a little different, my wife and I, along with a few friends headed over to Juree's Thai Place. It is located just off 16th Avenue and 19th Street NW in the old Burger King and while that seems a pretty unlikely location for a Thai restaurant, we were pleasantly surprised by the transformation. … [Read more...]
We all have our favourite hang out spots. Kawa is mine, located in community of Connaught, it offers a great environment with a modern vibe. Since I'm a relator my work is mobile and I love just sitting there doing work and people watch. You never know who you will see; the other day I saw the host of the new Food Network show, You Gotta Eat … [Read more...]
I had a craving for a falafel sandwich and stopped at my favourite Mediterranean place - Aida's Bistro. Located on 4 Street SW in the Mission district, this unassuming place is one not to be missed. Unlike many other restaurants that use a first name to try and give the image of home cookery, Aida actually owns and is behind the recipes and most of … [Read more...]
I happened on to Heritage Bakery & Deli after purchasing a Groupon offered a few months ago. Last weekend, I finally decided it might be a good time to try it out and I was more than pleasantly surprised. The exterior is unassuming and one might think that inside is a nice little bakery. Instead, I found a small grocery store full of Eastern … [Read more...]
I stopped by Community Natural Foods on 10th Avenue to check out their newly renovated cafe. I've heard good things about their offerings and wanted to see if I heard right. The store itself didn't change too much on whole, but the renovated cafe brought in about a dozen tables & chairs and is split up into a few sections. There's a salad … [Read more...]

With so many Vietnamese restaraunts out there, it's hard to choose the right one. I love Vietnamese, so let me narrow it down to one! Tango Tropical Grill is the winner, everything for the modern decor to it's amazing soup. It dosn't look like much form the outside, being located in a strip mall on 4 street NE off of McKnight Blvd. Once you walk … [Read more...]
