Last week we went to Ox & Angela for a late dinner. With the amazing success of Una Pizza, I wanted to see what the buzz was all about. Ox & Angela is located in the former home of The Bungalow (528 17 Avenue SW). Entering I found the interior very inviting, with the restaurant & bar on separate sides. Warm dark tones fille the room, … [Read more...]

Never knew Vegetarian can be so good...it can! I stopped in The Coup for a lunch meeting yesterday and thought it was time to write a review. I've frequented the unique eatery a number of times and have never been disappointed. The food is a twist on vegetarian that can satisfy any carnivore. The ingredients are all organic and made from scratch … [Read more...]
I finally had a chance to use a groupon that was about to expire and it was to Vero Bistro in Kensington. It was one I really wanted to check out after reading the menu online and a few reviews and so we booked it with 7 other friends. Vero is a funky smaller space, dark and moody, with a mix of tables and a padded red vinyl wall/seats. It's a … [Read more...]

Here are the results of the first challenge: Battle Vanilla Strawberry! We graded the … [Read more...]

I'm a bit of coffee snob and like to support local bussinesses at the same time, so today I headed over to Phil & Sebastian in Marda Loop. They're located … [Read more...]
I went to my brother-in-law’s 30th birthday at Il Centro, an unassuming Italian restaurant. I’ve been here once before and decided to write up a review. It’s located in a small strip mall, just off Macleod Trail, by Chinook Center. As you enter, it’s nothing special; a small space with a handful of tables covered by traditional checkered … [Read more...]

I recently went to Banff for a few days with my wife and stumbled upon a great eatery. Having eaten at most of the restaurants in town, we were up for something different and unique.
