Since I’ve moved here, I tried to go to a new restaurant once every week at least. Yesterday, I was on 17th Ave. Since I really like a good pint of draught, the idea of a global fusion cuisine mixed with over 40 types of beers was kind of attractive to me and my friend.
I have been disappointed by the restaurant/pub. As a start, there was probably one ...

It was a blast, not only did they have $3.50 highballs and $3.75 pints of domestic beer, they also had a live band. The band played some original tues, ...

I like food, no I really LOVE food. I’ve been recently introduced to Indian cuisine. I have to say that since then, I have tried several restaurants across the city in order the find the best lamb curry.

Joey Tomato's has always been a fond favorite of mine with its mouth-watering ahi tuna tacos and the ever-delicious Diva salad, however last night was a definite anomaly. Perhaps it was an odd moon phase or the recent chill that's been plaguing us or perhaps it was just too late for them to take our order seriously, but the service was slow and by the time the food got to ...

Searching for a club that was more than just a meat-market that played old-school funky tunes seemed to be quite a challenge in Calgary, until I stumbled upon the hidden gem known as the Hi-Fi Club. Located on 219 & 10th Ave. SW, they blast tunes from all eras including the oldie-goldies of Michael Jackson, James Brown and Aretha Franklin up to the modern beats of Mylo, Tiga and ...
