After my first try at the Taste of Edmonton festival, I'd been dying to check out the full Padmanadi experience.
The only difference I could tell between "real" ginger beef and Padmanadi's vegetarian version was the crispiness. But the texture and…More »
I would say that The Greenhouse is a secret indulgence for me, but with a menu of healthy healthy treats, it's not much very indulgent, and I don't keep it particularly secret!
My favourite salad here is the Sol Caesar. It has a light but creamy…More »
No time between classes for a knife-and-fork kind of meal, but require something to keep you going? Beez is where it's at.
The name says it all - fast food that's healthy, too. A selection of fruity shakes to keep your energy levels up on your walk to…More »
Mmmm, yelpers, you were correct! MRKT is indeed a very cool lunch spot in downtown Edmonton.
We arrived just before lunch service was ending (2 PM) so it was just us and one other twosome. I freaking love the decor in here. It's so cool and trendy, it…More »
After much buzz, I finally checked out Chez Cora this morning. From what I understand, it was a smart move to visit on a weekday. It was quiet when I arrived at around 8 AM, but the place had filled up even closer to 9. Glad I didn't have to wait in…More »
This is the perfect place for a little student studying or some light reading during the daytime, and a wonderful spot for some live music in the evening.
A great space with a wall of teas to choose from (plus specialties like matcha and chai lattes),…More »
I've decided that excellent food is something worth spending my hard-earned money on, and Sunterra has everything that I'm looking for, even though it's not always cheap.
Although this little grocery isn't as large as the nearest Safeway or Save-On,…More »
Sometimes, I just crave me a super healthy salad. OK, that's not true at all. But sometimes I do crave a caesar salad, and I think The Chopped Leaf's is sort of healthy. Maybe.
Located in Commerce Place, it's a hot spot for the downtown lunch crowd. I…More »
I've only ever tried the Chicken Caesar Wrap at BAJ because it's the one thing on the menu that consistently appeals to me. Visiting this location last night was my first time in a BAJ in a couple of years, and I seem to remember there being way more…More »
I had plans for a tea date with my bestie when we both realized we were starving. What were we thinking, anyway, getting tea at noon on a Sunday? Clearly what we wanted was pizza. So pizza we had!
Famoso wasn't that busy, surprisingly. Well, busy but…More »
I'm so bummed out, you guys. I had the highest of hopes for El Rancho. It's a Mexican restaurant (star!) in a neighbourhood I don't get to explore as often as I would like (star!) that's highly reviewed by my fellow yelpers (star!) - what would there…More »
This was one of my favourite meals in recent memory. After a long day of visiting family-in-law for a post-wedding meet-the-couple kind of celebration at a community hall, followed by a gift opening (yawn), I was seriously starving. The desserts at…More »
I was so nervous about the opening of a new Remedy. My beloved Remedy. Quirky, tasty Remedy, location of my first date with my husband and many, many cake dates with friends over the years, where you always leave smelling like butter chicken (mmm,…More »

If you love bread and cocoa, you'll love....Bread And Cocoa. (Womp womp.) No, but for reals - I make it a point to stop by this place every single time I'm in SF. It reminds me a lot of one of my favourite cafes back home but with an even better…More »
Let's just start off by saying I don't really like chains, but as far as chains go, Original Joes is one of the ones I like a whole lot more. Because as a restaurant, here's all you need to do to make me love you, even if you are kinda chainy: offer…More »
Oh, heck yes. Big, massive, delicious thank yous go to my friend Michael (not my Michael, a different Michael) who hosted a big, private party here. I had never heard of nor seen this place before. But I'm down with any place that goes by the name…More »
