My go to restaurants

Itoko sushi in Chaparral
Pho Hoan in mahogany
Iyycburg for smash burgers off Sundance
Sammies for pizza in midnapore
Chinese is either Bills or Kam Han

Blackbird pub in Auburn had really good food prior to covid but we went a month or two ago and found the quality to be meh

I'm always hesitant to tell people they are wrong on matters of taste.

But c'mon people, we've talked about this.

[Disoblige]

3 slices of those and a nice afternoon nap would be awesome.

[CompletelyNumb]

Who puts cheese on top of toppings? Yikes

I'll cosign Pho Hoan in mahogany and SEN on 130th though.

[ercchry]

At least that’s the “good” Sammy’s location… assuming he means summerset, the braeside one is owned by the brother or something? Inferior location.

I'll never eat at Modern Steak after seeing the owner bitch like a baby during the first part of the pandemic, blaming delivery app fees yet they choose to use them... What a fucking whiner.

It's like complaining someone is selling a PS5 for $900, yet you still go and buy it.

Good to know! I like holding grudges. You like holding grudges. I like you.

Take the "back way" in on that road that runs adjacent to Macleod. Super easy to get in.

More about getting out than in...

I really, really need to create a better delivery app.

Modern steak was cool before they franchised

It’s not franchised. It’s owned by a small partnership (and always has been).

Now that people in canyon meadows have one it’s by definition no longer cool

I didn’t even like the idea of the Stephen Ave one. At least they did modern ocean and burger there…

[Disoblige]

They were cool until people realized they weren't.

Things are cool until they are common.

Like Canada Goose jackets, and fast quarter mile times.

Hahah, you hipster. But yeah. Who cares what others think is cool. The people who dictate what is "cool" are lame anyways.

Point: I saw a bunch of people line up to wait and go into Canada Goose last week. Basic bitch starter pack people, like Canada Goose jacket, burberry scarf, Uggs, Lulu's...

Anyways, I do get bummed when places I like to go to all of a sudden gets viral or super popular and it becomes infested with people who stand on their chairs to take a snap for the Insta.

[ExtraSlow]

I'm shocked the hipsters haven't discovered the deer head cafe yet.

[BavarianBeast]

Met with some friends at bow valley ranche tonight. Food and service were both very good. We all did the surf + turf and some appetizers and everything was damn near perfect.

[max_boost]

Lol dang. I like moxies. Thought it was on par and consistent with the joeys, earls, original joes etc.

Steve at modern is probably the hardest working guy I know, always loved the food and decor and all the concepts but that’s just natural of me to defend my guy.

[hurrdurr]

Deagla in Legacy is pretty good for shawarma. Much better than Jerusalem on 130th which tastes like shit in comparison to 16th Ave location.

Nice, I'll check this out soon. I haven't gone back to Jerusalem since the norovirus incident and have been missing some good shawarma.

Moxies is the worst of the mid-end regional chains.

I find Cactus Club to the most tolerable one. Then State & Main.

[Tik-Tok]

When you start looking into why all these chain restaurants serve the same bland food, you come up with a couple of common denominators. Cara and Northland groups suck.

[mr2mike]

Deep SE restaurants. Might as well take your passport and hit up duty free while you're at it.
If I wanted to drive that far, I'll go to Canmore for a nice meal or Banff.
