 1. Cora's Breakfast and Lunch

4600 130 Ave SE
Calgary, AB T2Z 0C2
(403) 288-0064
4.0 star rating
  4/22/2011

On any list of K&G's favorite places to eat, Cora's would be quite high-ranking (especially thanks to K's constant raves and craves for it). I first experienced Cora's in Ottawa on a group trip back in 2004 (in itself a story for another day), and…More »

  3/21/2011

One of the true eccentrics of our city. The ambiance is great, kinda like a run-down dorm, and the food is highly entertaining. I usually stick to the tried-and-true sauerkraut dog, though I suspect I will one day try the Cap'ns Dog. And when you…More »

Categories: Japanese, Sushi Bars

5.0 star rating
  2/16/2011

Tucked away in the middle of nowhere, with seemingly no signs and no adverts aside from glowing word of mouth, this is the best sushi I've had in Calgary so far. I've been here twice and both times the flavor and bang-for-your-buck has been off the…More »

4.0 star rating
  2/21/2011

I have had a tattered history with this sushi bar: as the white husband of an Asian, I am a highly visible target for Peter's gregarious teasing, especially on a slower day. He came to the table with his giant knife and demanded embarrassing things,…More »

Calgary, AB T2J 7C3
(403) 278-3338

Category: Chinese

5.0 star rating
  2/21/2011

My favorite Chinese restaurant in South Calgary. The service is phenomenal, which quick and old-school personal service (if you're a regular, they know your name and often your favorite dishes), and of course the food is always delicious. Bill…More »

4.0 star rating

Fatburger is a California chain of burgers founded in the '50s and has expanded since then to include this branch in Deerfoot Meadows. Kat and I first visited here probably close to three years ago and were pleased with a new alternative to…More »

Calgary, AB T2H 0K1
(403) 253-8222

Category: Vietnamese

4.0 star rating
  2/16/2011

Where to begin? I feel it is difficult to write an objective review of a restaurant that opened a lot of metaphoric doors for me. I cannot remember the date of my first visit (it was in the winter, possibly 2003), nor count the number of visits since…More »

Calgary, AB T2W 4X9
(403) 252-7676

Categories: Japanese, Sushi Bars

4.0 star rating
  2/19/2011

A good, relatively cheap stand-by when you need a sushi fix. The sashimi has always been fresh, but I particularly enjoy the hot pots: the sukiyaki hot pot is a great deal, with side salad and tempura veggies for $20. A special treat is one that…More »

4.0 star rating
  2/16/2011

Tucked away at the end of a strip mall that features bubble tea and an exotic massage parlor, Shibuya serves up Calgary's finest Japanese dining. I have been here about five times, and each time the meal is delicious. Their sushi is very fresh, the…More »

Calgary, AB T2E 4Y7
(403) 385-3777

Category: Casinos

3.0 star rating
  2/17/2011

I am not sure why, but something about the flashing lights and glitz of a casino just draw me to it like a moth to a flame. I keep my pockets tightly sewn though, so my only visits to the casino are strictly to enjoy the buffet. More often than not,…More »
