Whoa whoa whoa - hold the phone! Do we have a new contender for my new favourite lunch spot downtown?! I think we do!
I've often walked by the little sandwich board sign outside the First National Bank building on my way to the library; the black one…More »

I've been a member at the Don Wheaton YMCA for about a year and a half and I love it.
I've never been a very athletic person, I don't really play sports, I never really enjoyed working out, but that has changed since I started going to the Y, which…More »
The Common is one of the best clubs/lounges in the city, for sure, and one of my regular spots. The room is long and narrow with high booths on one side and low seats on the other, with the bar and bathrooms all the way at the back. The art on the…More »
Fluid is my favourite club in the city by far for a night out dancing. DJ Aiden Jamali straight up plays the best hip hop, rap, dancehall and reggae on Friday and Saturday nights. No Top 40, no mash-ups or lame remixes. Great stuff for the 25+ crowd…More »

I'm really happy that this place exists in Edmonton. Sometimes I get so sick of the generic pubs, all with the same beer, same service, and seemingly same menus.
Brewsters has a few locations in Edmonton, but this is my favourite one. All of the…More »
This is the branch of EPL I visit most frequently, not because it is close to my house but close to my work. I'll admit I don't spend tons of time browsing through here, because I love to browse on their website and put items on hold to be picked up.…More »
I really like this place. Great location on Jasper Ave for those nights when you're just not feeling Whyte Ave and want something a little more mellow. The space itself is really quite big, with lots of tables and booths and a few pool tables in the…More »
Tucked into the HSBC building and entering through the back alley, you'd never really know this place is here unless you know someone who knows (unless you work in the building). Once inside, you find a bustling cafe with a handful of tables with…More »
In my lifetime, the spot on the corner of Jasper Ave and 111 Street has been three places: First it was Stonehouse, then Prohibition, and now Black Sheep Pub. There isn't much difference between the three of them, other than what is on the walls, the…More »
I had my very first experience with Vietnamese subs yesterday, even though I worked across the street from the place since before they opened! My friend, who also works across the street from V, goes there all the time, so we finally made it down…More »
I used to avoid Sunterra because I thought it was more expensive than it really is. I've actually been going there quite frequently lately, usually to grab a salad to supplement the too-small lunch I've brought for myself.
First, the negatives. This…More »
The time has come for me to seriously downgrade my review for Zenari's :(
I hadn't been in months, but met a friend yesterday for lunch. The food is still delicious. Most of the old staff are there, with a couple of new faces. The service I received…More »
Zenari's is one of my absolute favourite places to go for lunch downtown. I'll admit I haven't been… Read more »

I've worked at my current job for over two years, and I can see Cafe Da Gama from my window, but I didn't end up going there until World Cup 2010 because someone told me they were playing all the games and it wasn't too busy. Needless to say, I spent…More »
I like The Druid. Great location on Jasper Ave and 116 Street, big on the inside, not usually too crazy crowded on the weekends, and good specials during the week. They used to have a pretty good trivia night on Mondays, but got rid of it for some…More »
I went to MRKT today with a girlfriend from work on our lunch break. I kind of felt like I was cheating on The Sequel, but alas, I wanted to try the place, so off we went!
I'd read the other reviews here, so I knew it was going to be nice, but i was…More »
I've been banking with Servus for years. This branch is located in the City Centre mall (east), on the second floor near The Bay. It is not my regular branch, but I go there often because I work downtown and it is most convenient for me.
They appear…More »
