Places to try in Edmonton

[ThePenIsMightier]

Wow, when I lived just off Whyte I knew I didn't go downtown much, but this makes me realize how little I actually did. I think the only DT names I recognize from these huge recent lists are Corso-32 and that shitty, watery taco place everyone thinks is so good. * Oh and I guess Sherlock Holmes.
I guess I was all about the Whyte Power.

My recommendation would be Tony's Pizza Palace. Its in a seedy area but the food is amazing.

Yes Edmonton is seedy.

Bar bricco for sure. So good.

If downtown, just try to stay alive and not get stabbed. Seriously.

Joey's has supersonic jack and cokes during happy hour. So good.

Says a lot about a place when Joeys is a recommended restaurant.

I’ve only stayed downtown when I go to EDM for work, the Union Bank was a preferred hotel since it was close to where I need to be, but police were outside all the time, I was told it’s much worse now so it should be an interesting week.

I think that's racist. We are supposed to be a mosaic.

Awesome, Kanto is close to the viet sub place Dj_Rice recommended, I’ll try both places.

Kanto 98 is a good choice. You'll have a good dinner here as mentioned above. Edgar cooks some great food

sabor is great. Had some of the best lobster there I've ever had. There is normands on 116st and jasper that's got amazing food. It's like stepping into a restaurant from 40 years ago. Place has been around forever.

Lots of the suggestions seem like their made by poor students on a tight budget.

Campio brewing has beer. I've heard the pizza is good.

[flipstah]

Syphay for Thai food

[Team_Mclaren]

Thai Together for thai food. A++

I don’t mind, I’m mostly solo during these trips so I prefer low key places.

Any recommendations for places near the the law courts? I’m here for another week and getting sick of the cafeteria food for lunch.

New Tan Tan is awesome, legit Chinese.
Too bad Hardware Grill is gone...

That area is literally homeless and stabbers so I would recommend staying close to a sheriff at all times.

[killramos]

And a hospital nearby wouldn’t hurt

Yeah, I’m at the JW and wander around often, they’re everywhere but pretty harmless so far. I will check out TanTan sounds promising.
