MARKET- Calgary

MARKET – Calgary

Terry was golfing, so I explored the restaurants on 17th Street and decided on Market.  The motif is black and white with a modern turn…white chairs with white tables and cloths…black chairs, black tables and cloths.  Young, attractive chefs and waitresses.  I additional to using ingredients from the garden out back, neighboring  farms contribute to the menu.  I enjoyed a sandwich named Belt….potato bread, lightly toasted, friend egg, bacon and cucumber!  Delicious food with Florence and the Machine providing lively background music!

Beaver, UT, our first stop, population 3,000…sneeze; blink or cough and you are through Beaver. Continue reading SOMEBODY’S BEEN SLEEPING IN MY BED…
