  3/5/2011

Cross Iron Mills... it's the place to take any visitor to the city. Why? Because they have stores like the Bass Pro Shop (I stared in awe the first time I was in there) and decorations like the caveman frozen in a plastic chunk of ice.

I waited a long…More »

  Update - 2/18/2012

A little on the top... a little on the bottom. Hop In Brew continues to be a steady fave when I'm in need of a brew with some buds.

From Festivus with the yelpers in December to meetups and just popping in for a pint and some pizza, it has its own…More »

    Hop in Brew... oh Hop in Brew, how can I not love your little pub in a house? Upstairs and down,… Read more »

Wild Rose Brewery, how do I love thee? I'd try to the count the ways, but I'm afraid I won't ever be able to stop. From your tap room to your tours to your staff who are so obviously passionate about your product, if I'm not heading out there for a…More »

Who knew there was so much evil lurking in Ramsay? I certainly didn't. At least, not until my very first visit to Caffe Rosso in Ramsay. As I turned onto 24th Ave, I spied what looked like an upside-down church. WTF? That's a weird thing to have in a…More »

Dear Brasserie... this review's been a long time coming.

Whenever someone asks me what my favourite resto in Calgary is, it's without an ounce of hesitation that I reply "Brasserie Kensington." It's an ideal mixture of great service, quality food, an…More »

  Update - 11/27/2011

Have I mentioned how much I love the Inglewood Bird Sanctuary? It's now one of my favourite places to head for a stroll on a gorgeous wintry day. The path is easy to walk, it's nice and quiet, and there are photos to be taken at every turn if you so…More »

130 9 Ave SE
Calgary, AB T2G 0P3
(403) 268-4100
4.0 star rating
  Update - 11/27/2011

We've got a pretty sweet museum on our hands... that's right, on our hands. Because there's no point in an awesome museum without locals coming to visit to help keep it on its feet.

Right now, the Glenbow's hosting the Watch Me Move exhibit, an…More »

Telus Spark. I came to visit you for your first adult only night. This, frankly, is a great idea. I can't wait to experience more of you with no minors around (especially since I don't have any of my own).

What I'm fond of:

(403) 263-7900

Category: Pubs

3.0 star rating
  Update - 1/9/2012

Why do I have to have principles? It's messing with my Yelp reviews. Bill's remains a solid 4 (and probably 5 once I'm done my beer passport) establishment. The service is awesome, the food rocks, and there's more beers than you can shake a stick at.…More »

Melly's serves all day breakfast, and apparently the time to go is after the lunch rush crowd. We were there are 130, seemed to work well enough.

I have no idea what any of the food is, or what it's supposed to taste like, but the Tocilog I ordered…More »
