Nice Cream Calgary is the first nitrogen ice cream shop in Calgary, in which liquid nitrogen is used to freeze the cream. It was a shock that that the shop was empty when we got there! Well, granted that it was a Sunday afternoon. Liquid nitrogen is a new popular fad for ice cream. The […]

Sushi Hanami is a Favourite for Japanese & Korean Food
Sushi Hanami is a restaurant near MRU that has become a family (and my) favourite for filling Japanese and Korean food. Because Mount Royal University is their next door neighbour, Sushi Hanami is quite a popular eatery for students nearby. One of my friend who goes to MRU introduced me to this place. It’s also […]
Dinner at the Bridgeland Riverside Farmers’ Market
I LOVE farmers’ markets. I love talking to local vendors and farmers, I love the busyness and activity, and I love trying out new food! Of course, the Bridgeland Riverside Farmers’ Market was no exception. In Calgary, outdoor farmers’ markets are seasonal, usually appearing between June and October. After half a year of winter, Calgarians […]
Monogram Coffee in Altadore is The Most Hipster Cafe in Calgary
In all honestly, Monogram Coffee in Altadore is the most hipster cafe in Calgary. Everything seems hipster: the obscure location in southwest, the hole-in-the-wall venue, the wood decor, the incandescent lightbulbs (maybe?) and the homemade almond-cashew milk.

Diner Fare with a Twist at Burger 320 in Kensington
After spending a day in Kensington, I was hungry for food and stumbled upon an eatery I haven’t tried before: Burger 320. Burger 320 offers typical diner fare (think burgers, fries, milkshakes), but with a twist. The Calgary-born owner, Chef Mario, translates his Italian heritage and Prairie beginnings to his menu. For example, the Cavallari […]
Delicious Locally-Roasted Coffee at Kienna Cafe
Opening in April 2016, Kienna Cafe is the flagship cafe of the locally-Calgarian, Kienna Coffee Roasters. One of my new hobbies during the weekends is to visit cafes, sip coffee and catch up on my blog. I feel like I’ve been going to too many restaurants and cafes more than I can pump out blog […]
