Update — April 24, 2017 I was invited by the owner to come to The Street Eatery after they forcibly closed during the winter of 2016/2017. And this time was better than the first. TASTE: Good.

Lunch at Eddie Burger and Bar in Banff
The Eddie Burger and Bar serves great burgers and drinks for a casual dine-in at Downtown Banff. After arriving at Banff (at 2:30PM), I immediately made my way down to Eddie to have lunch because I was starving.

Vegan Vietnamese at Tamarind Vietnamese Grill & Noodle House
If you’re vegan (even if you’re not vegan) and seriously want to try Vietnamese food, Tamarind Vietnamese Grill & Noodle House, an eatery tucked away in westside of Downtown Calgary, serves excellent vegan Vietnamese food.

Hearts Choices Thai Vegan Cafe is a vegan paradise in Calgary if you are itching for Asian and Thai cuisine. This is somewhat of a self-serve restaurant. The counter people provide the food, but you clear your own plates and serve your own water. While they don’t offer everything on their menu in the website, […]
