ROUGE RESTAURANT – Inglewood
I love food….doesn’t have to be fine dining, just good. If you are looking for fine dining, look no further than Rouge situated on the Bow River in the historic district of Inglewood just over the bridge from downtown Calgary. Continue reading ROUGE RESTAURANT – Inglewood
LAMPE BERGER PARIS – Inglewood
In 1898, in response to a major preoccupation at that time – a sepsis in hospitals – Maurice Berger, a pharmaceutical dispenser, invented a system of diffusion by catalysis, for which he filed a patent. This revolutionary technology, which purifies the air in enclosed rooms, was soon to be applied for private use , giving birth to the Lampe Berger company. Continue reading LAMPE BERGER PARIS – Inglewood
PARC BRASSERIE – Mt. Royal
I had a girl’s luncheon with a friend who lives in Calgary. She chose Parc Brasserie in Mount Royal. It is located on 16th Street and is adjacent to a small green neighborhood park….just like one would find in Paris. Continue reading PARC BRASSERIE – Mt. Royal

WE ARE SMITTEN
Our visit to Calgary is drawing to a close. We have one week left. The city has captured our hearts for several reasons. It has the vitality of an energetic young population in a hurry to get inside the skyscrapers and then turn the corner and you are surrounded by mature evergreen trees along the Elbow or Bow River; you can walk down shaded lanes of historical homes; Continue reading WE ARE SMITTEN
CILANTRO – Calgary
We have biked all day and I want a brake from the kitchen. While I have enjoyed the opportunity to cook in Calgary…it is nice to go out. Cilantro has been recommended to us by the same friend that has impeccable taste in food, art and style in general. Continue reading CILANTRO – Calgary
VERO BISTRO MODERNE – Kensington
We’re headed down the bike path toward Kensington, a small gentrified district across the 10th Street Louise bridge which connects Downtown West End with Memorial Drive.
