1. Model Milk
If you are wondering where to go tonight, go to Model Milk.
Model Milk, as the name implies, is nicely nestled in an turn-of-the century building that was once a creamery. Newly renovated with a shout-out to it's roots, the interior boasts an inviting…More »
2. Anju Restaurant & Lounge
Anju is a tucked-away little hole-in-the-wall-but-cleaner type place that has a chef that I believe fell from heaven (or someplace close).
The owners of Anju long ago learned that going out for dinner is just as much about discovering as it is about…More »
3. Vin Room
Vin Room is a jewel in Mission.
This intimate restaurant has a France-meets-1940s-Americana style that's both appealing and relaxing.
The restaurant is a converted WWII house next to the Second Cup and across from the Joyce on 4th, and I guarantee if…More »
4. Boxwood Rotisserie Cafe
I have to update my review of Boxwood from a 4 to a 5 because of the nuts.
According to my friend Bill, "these nuts are so good, they should be illegal." I totally agree. The spiced, citrus, rosemary nuts at Boxwood are delicious.
Also wonderful is the…More »

I've walked by this restaurant a few times heading into or out of downtown and always thought 'what… Read more »
5. UNA pizza + wine
Of course, I was back at UNA; and of course, it was delicious.
But here's the best part ... I learned a little something special about UNA this last visit, (psst, don't tell a bunch of people okay? This'll be our secret) Josh at the bar is an…More »

6. Brûlée Bakery
Brûlée has turned me into a dessert person. I now sometimes look off into the distance and think about Brûlée's sugar cookies (which are so buttery delicious I wish they were a food group).
Everything on their menu that I've tried I've loved. Whether…More »
7. Galaxie Diner
Yep. Yep. I like Galaxy.
This little joint has always been a favorite of mine and it's for one simple reason; the food here is delicious.
This is quality greasy spoon; mismatched coffee cups and all. Expect bottomless hashbrowns, generous portions,…More »
8. JAROblue - CLOSED
I recently discovered that JAROBlue is not a clothing store.
I remember when JAROBlue opened in the wake of what (I think) was a clothing store in that location and thought, "Another clothing store? Well that's neat," and promptly never thought of it…More »
9. Tzin Wine & Tapas
Tzin is a cute, tiny, Spanish-meets-Alberta, Tapas bar with an equally adorable owner; who will attentively serve you great wine and great food with a great smile.
(As a special glimpse into the owners' sense of humor, Tzin is open until 11:03 PM on…More »
10. Vendome Café
Vendome embodies everything wonderful about Sunnyside; a cute, little approachable place with sunny windows, nice staff, decent lattes and excellent food.
I like it here, the atmosphere is relaxing, and I feel slightly teleported into a small town…More »
11. Glenmore Delicatessen
Wanna know something? I heart this Deli! I was delighted to find it here because I think more people need to eat the sandwiches made at this place. (I'm a sandwich nut, it's everything I like to eat on a daily bases smushed between stuff that I can't…More »
12. Bumpy's Cafe
Seriously, the best latte in town.
Not only are the baristas friendly, the food lovingly made fresh every day by a woman who I can only assume is everyone's grandmother, and the coffee excellent, but they put little pictures of ferns in your latte…More »
13. Cruffs Cream Puffs
Raise your hand if you like cream puffs! Raise two hands if you like them over the counter style with a bunch of filling options!
Little Cruffs Cream Puffs is the new cupcake place. Cute little sugar dusted cream puffs offered in regular and adorable…More »
14. Dairy Lane Café
Calgary has a great breakfast culture. Give us big eggs on our homemade toast, thick bacon with our fluffy pancakes and bottomless fresh coffee. Maybe it's the rancher in all of us that likes a good hearty breakfast on the weekend, maybe we just like…More »
15. Delicious-Thai
Before I went to India, I went for Thai; Delicious Thai! (pun INtended).
Delicious Thai is a small out-of-the-way place in Kensington that does a stand-up job at being, well, delicious. I was impressed that I could choose how spicy I wanted my dish,…More »
16. Davison Orchards & Farm Market
I am not sure that "quaint" even begins to properly describe this spot.
I happened by Davison Orchards this past May Long and it's an adorable, family-owned farm that bakes some of the best Grandma-style apple pie that side of the Rockies.
The apples…More »
