Mamak Dang Malaysian Fusion offers excellent Malaysian food and service in a Malaysian-styled eatery! We arrived at Mamak Dang on a Thursday afternoon, and it just finished the lunch hour rush so there were hardly anyone inside. This worked to our advantage because we had the full attention of the staff and chef! 😀 Once […]

A Tasty Surprise at Jackie’s Thai
Jackie’s Thai is an underrated gem hidden in the confines of Eau Claire Market. I was invited by Jackie and her colleague (Mark) to come downtown and try the food at Jackie’s Thai. It was a great opportunity to finally try this stall, and I was treated for a free meal! Yay! 🙂 Jackie’s Thai […]
Freshly-baked Japanese Pastries at Oguraya Bakery
Oguraya Bakery is a bakery that specializes in authentic Japanese sweets, which is one of only a few in Calgary. After going to the Calgary Greek Festival 2016, my cousin and I wandered around the area, and found this small bakery tucked across the Greek Orthodox Church. When we went in, it looked so dilapidated […]
Delicious Mediterranean at Village Pita Bakery
After researching for new (and cheap) places to eat at in NE Calgary, I decided to visit Village Pita Bakery, which is highly rated on Zomato. Village Pita Bakery is located near Marlborough, and it’s a bit out of the way for most people. It’s also located in a small strip mall that contained other […]

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. And I am in heaven~ I like to consider myself to be a bit of a hipster: vegan, […]
Sso Yummy is a Hidden Korean Gem in Chinatown
On my quest to find little gems in Chinatown, I stumbled upon this Korean food stall hidden in the basement of the one of the street malls called Sso Yummy. Sso Yummy is obsurely located and you wouldn’t find it if you just look from the outside. There are no signs whatsoever outside indicating its […]
Delicious Chinese Pastries at Rainbow Bakery in Chinatown
Rainbow Bakery Calgary is hands down one of my favourite Chinese bakery in Chinatown. This bakery is a nice introduction to Chinese baked goods if you’ve never tried it before. The bakery is located inside Dragon City Mall in Chinatown, and they’re usually open the whole week (except Mondays). The store itself is quite messy, […]
