While visiting in Calgary, stopped by the Chinook Centre. It's a great mall. There's utilitarian stores like Sears and Zellers, Apparel stores like Hollister and Roots, as well as Electronics retailers like Best Buy Mobile and Apple Store. It's a…More »

Bow Bottom Trail Southeast
Calgary, AB
Canada

Category: Parks

10/29/2011

Fish Creek is located in the Southern end of the Calgary. It's a good example of what Calgary looked like before the urbanized Calgary we see today.

I was only at Fish Creek for a few hours on a Summer day as a tourist and only explored the trails…More »

10/22/2011

So my friend and I decide to go on a Banff day-trip while I was visiting Calgary in late September. We decided to take the Sulphur Mountain Hike up and the Banff Gondola down. We asked the ticket sales office, because it was offseason, the down…More »

JAROblue is okay. It's on trendy 17th Ave and looks trendy inside as well. The restaurant/bar is a narrow space, with a single aisle down the middle, with seating on both sides, the bar, kitchen and bathrooms are in the back.
My friend had a lunch…More »

Recently stopped by Grizzly Paw on my way back to Calgary from Banff. Saturday afternoon, there was a wait, no big deal. I was with one other person. We put our names down, we were told 10-15 min. Fine. I eye a two person table that sat empty…More »

6. Tubby Dog

1022 17 Ave SW
Calgary, AB T2T 0A5
Canada
(403) 244-0694

Category: Hot Dogs

9/27/2011

Tubby Dog, a "gourmet" hot dog establishment. While that concept may not work in California, it appears to be alive and well in Calgary thanks to Tubby Dog. Their hot dog links are really big, as is the buns that enclose the hot dog. I ordered the…More »

7. WestJet Airlines

22 Aerial Pl NE
Calgary, AB T2E 8N4
Canada
(403) 250-5839

Category: Airlines

10/1/2011

This is not a review of their frequent flyer program or a review by a frequent flyer:

Westjet is fine for what it is, an airline that goes to many places in Canada. Think of it as Canada's JetBlue, except that they use Boeing 737s. You get one bag…More »

Calgary, AB T2E 6W5
Canada
(403) 250-7275

Category: Airports

10/29/2011

Calgary Airport (YYC) definitely is no LAX or O'Hare when it comes to size or international destinations, but it does the job.

International arrivals involve a long indoor walk to the customs area. There are some workers offering golf cart service if…More »
