I didn't realize the breadth of stores housed here at Southgate. It really has become a one-stop shopping centre with the addition of a ton of great stores (hello, Michael Kors!) and a recent renovation to add a more modern look the whole building.…More »
I came into Family Vision Care hoping to buy a new pair of glasses. At first, I had a hard time flagging down a staff member to help me. When I did find an employee to help, the shopping experience suddenly became much easier and more enjoyable.

I've only been to Red's - erm, I mean Ed's - for bowling, but it was a mega-blast.
On a Friday night, the alleys are all lit up with neon and black lights for the ultimate nighttime bowling extravaganza experience. Prices were pretty reasonable, too,…More »
You know how when you live in a city all your life, you only end up going to its most famous landmarks on really special occasions? Like World Waterpark, for example. When was the last time I was here? I think not since high school.
I had a cousin…More »
This is by far my favourite park in Edmonton. It's got everything you could ask for in a park, especially in this city.
Summer: paddle boats, nice trails, plus Shakespeare in the Park! Killer geese aside, this a great place for a date, a family day…More »
At Halloween, Pretty Party Place is out-of-this-world fantastic with costumes, props, and decorations galore. From kids to adults, silly to gory, you will find the right outfit and accessories for any party.
Throughout the rest of the year, this place…More »
It was only after our favourite breakfast places and the new iHOP informed us of their hour-ish wait times that we opted for lunch instead of brunch, and Kelsey's was closest.
Maybe because it was just barely 12:01 PM is the reason it was so quiet?…More »
I can't say enough good things about the Art Gallery of Alberta. I took the tour on the architecture of the building, and all I could say was, "Wow!" Learned a ton about the unique design and the sustainable elements of the new building.
The exhibits…More »
A visit to McKernan Baptist for a Christmas concert! It's a space that almost felt a little bit too large for the event we were at - sitting at the back, which is really, really far back made it difficult to see anything well - but the accoustics…More »
This mall simply keeps getting better and better. It started with the expansion of Quebec chains like Le Chateau, and now we have Forever 21, Victoria's Secret, The Apple Store, and the mother of all frock shops, Anthropologie.
For a while there, it…More »
I turned into a 5-year-old yesterday afternoon when I finally received my belated birthday present from Michael J - a kitty! Growing up with allergic brothers, I was a sad, pet-free child. But no more!
We knew that once it was time to get a cat, we…More »
After much buzz, I finally checked out Chez Cora this morning. From what I understand, it was a smart move to visit on a weekday. It was quiet when I arrived at around 8 AM, but the place had filled up even closer to 9. Glad I didn't have to wait in…More »
Am I biased because several of my greatest childhood birthday parties of all time took place here? Maybe a little.
I thought it might be a little bit busier, but it was just us and a couple of others. It was still very fun and a great Yelpy bonding…More »
Rexall is kind of difficult to review. I'm not really a hockey girl, but I do love concerts. I've seen a ton here over the years: Britney, The Hip, and the life-changing Lady Gaga (helloooo, floor seats)! And best of all, Stars On Ice, every year…More »
I always find it awkward to go to Michael's, because I ultimately end up saying to someone, "Oh, I was just over at Michael's," and they ask, "Don't you guys live together?" No, not Michael J, fiance-face, but Michael's, the craft store. Both are…More »
What's not to like about Winston Churchill Square? This fantastic Edmonton landmark is home to about a bazillion events every year, including casual lunchtime activities like zumba and kite-flying, and bigger festivals like Taste of Edmonton (YUM).

Costco is a good idea in principle, if you are a member of the Duggar clan or something similar. 28 bazillion kids and counting! If you need massive amounts of everything at bulk prices, this is the place to be. But if you're a childless couple, you…More »
Can you believe this was my first time at Foote Field? It wasn't even for a U of A game, either!
My second FC game, and my first time at Foote. TIckets were cheaper here than at Commonwealth, and it's because the venue isn't as nice. But it gets the…More »

Ah, the St. Albert Bowling Centre. The site of so many awkward high school dates and birthday parties. Memories, sigh.
When you're the only bowling alley in town, you don't need to be fancy. I'm almost positive that's the mindset of the owners of this…More »
I came in for brunch with my parents and fiance at Murietta's a little while ago.
I had never been in before and had no clue that they offered a brunch menu! The doors and dark windows had always seemed intimidating, but it was a friendly place when I…More »
Oops, a bit of a belated review on the Edmonton Fringe Festival, but here it is!
The Fringe is my absolute favourite festival of the summer. It really finishes off the summer on a great note and it's the time that I think Old Strathcona really comes…More »
I've found my new favourite coffee shop in the city, I think. Just maybe.
Swung by last weekend for a morning date with Sarah J. Now, after reading this review, you can't say I didn't warn you when I tell you that it might be awfully tricky to find a…More »
After about 5 hours on the road from Calgary (which included a pit stop to our puppy breeder friends, which, let's be honest, was a pretty big part of the trip), we needed food really, really badly. And gas. Next stop: Olds! We figured there had to…More »
I normally wouldn't go out of my way to visit a BP, but it was a convenient location to meet our friends before a movie before South Common.
We weren't there long, but it looks like any other Boston Pizza. The drinks were cold, the cheese bread with…More »
Mmm, Kids in the Hall Bistro! I don't get here as often as I would like to, but when I worked downtown I would try to eat here sometimes.
I was at City Hall with a group of friends and acquaintances a while back and we all took in lunch here. Awkward…More »
I had plans for a tea date with my bestie when we both realized we were starving. What were we thinking, anyway, getting tea at noon on a Sunday? Clearly what we wanted was pizza. So pizza we had!
Famoso wasn't that busy, surprisingly. Well, busy but…More »
With an ugly sweater party coming up, where was a girl to turn to find a buffet of ugly sweaters for her favourite yelpers? Well, Value Village of course.
This place is pretty huge. It's sort of what you expect from the outside - flourescent lighting,…More »
After the pleasant surprise that was Kingsway Garden Mall last week, I actually had high hopes when I went out of my way to visit Capilano. I had never been before Friday so I had no idea what I was in form.
While WEM is famous, Kingsway is a secret…More »
I knew I would be heading down to Century Park today but I was starving when I arrived. I thought to myself, why don't I try out that Spring Roll Kitchen place I always see but never pop into?
I thought it might be all gourmet spring rolls or…More »
Hooray for an awesome tea cafe in Edmonton - especially for being on the north side, and *especially* for being in an area typically reserved for big box stores and restaurants. (Although 137th Ave is pretty chain-y, I've gotta give cred where cred…More »
Quirky? Yes. Stylish? Even more so. And affordable? Ding-ding-ding! This High Street highlight has all of the trendy home decoration I'm looking for.
I've picked up a few wall decorations from this location of Tin Box (there's on Whyte, too), and the…More »
As someone who considers herself a bit of a burger aficionado, I was stoked yet skeptical of Delux. I came here on a date with a dude quite some time ago for a trendy dinner out. The dude didn't stick around, but my love of Delux definitely has.
It…More »
I had my first wonderful experience at the Allin Clinic today! I was finally able to book with a doctor there to become my family doctor. The wait was worth it! She was very friendly, a great listener, actually took notes and wanted to know all the…More »
I'm so bummed out, you guys. I had the highest of hopes for El Rancho. It's a Mexican restaurant (star!) in a neighbourhood I don't get to explore as often as I would like (star!) that's highly reviewed by my fellow yelpers (star!) - what would there…More »
I had walked past Big City many a time, curious about this new cupcake joint in time. So many, in fact, that it's not so new anymore. But after a healthy of lunch of only salad, I was going crazy for a calorie indulgence. Walking through City Centre…More »
Very high hopes heading into Golden Rice Bowl. It was a very chilly night in Edmonton and I was tired, cold, hungry, etc. A high-rated Chinese restaurant? Yep, that sounded just about perfect.
Michael J and I ordered the dinner for two. It's usually…More »
I've just begun my second class at the City Arts Centre and I love it.
A couple of years ago I signed up for a painting class. I'm not super artsy or craftsy but I like having a hobby. The acrylic painting class was awesome. We were able to choose our…More »
When I think about it, y'know, the very first show or concert I ever went to must have been at the Arden Theatre. This place is nestled inside the much larger St. Albert City Hall/library building, but it's got a certain charm that's all its own.
You…More »
I'm so thrilled to have found this neat little out of the way cafe! I was going for lunch with a friend and it's in her neighbourhood, so she had suggested. I had never been, so I was looking forward to something new to Yelp about!
Once you find it,…More »
For the longest time, I never even thought about trying Ricky's. I try to eat local over chains, and I prefer interesting cuisines over the same ol' burger and fries.
I can't attest to the burger and fries style meals that make up the dinner menu, but…More »
