Restaurants in Calgary that are an *experience*

[the_fornicator]

Does anybody have any suggestions as to what restuarants in the downtown core are worth going to? Doesn't have to be the most expensive or exclusive place in Calgary, but definitely has to be above-average.

Clues? Ideas?

Thanks in advance,
W

Head to the Laurier for the fondue dinner. Not cheap at about $95 for two, but it's three courses, and it'll impress your date.

LOL, $95 for two sounds pretty damn cheap to me. Is this not including any drinks or something?

Are you guys all students on a budget or something?

My lunch tab is that much for two people.

Some places I would recommend that have great menus and an upscale feel.

Blink
Tribune
Divino Wine & Cheese Bistro
The Living Room
Bistro Twenty Two Ten

I enjoyed them all.

+1 for Blink. We went there for dining week and really enjoyed the food and atmosphere there.

I forget what the pricing was there (it was decent during dining week) but I think it's a bit above-average pricing.

The pumpkin soup was delicious!

I'm giving away $100 bills if anyone needs any, I got no room in my wallet cause of the $1000 bills i only carry.

Yeah, that's just the food, doesn't include a bottle of wine or anything.
And, I'm not a student anymore, but I do live by a budget. I need to save my cash for hookers and blow.

lol $95 for breakfast that you dont even eat? does that not include juice and coffee?

do you live at the homeless shelter?

I piss 100 (dolla dolla bills y'all) when i wake up, before i even think about breakfast




on a serious note, when its nice out go to River Cafe, it's a nice walk to the restaurant and you can walk through the park after dinner.

i like murietas as well, i like the atmosphere, uber old building and it used to be a bank waaay back when (so i was told)
