We walked by the Oyster Bar Restaurant inside the Grand Central Station in New York City many times in the past and didn’t get a chance to try it. This past January when we took Mom to NYC, we took her to the Oyster Bar restaurant for lunch since she loves oyster and seafood! 我們過去經過在紐約市大中央車站內的牡蠣酒吧餐廳多次，但並沒有機會嘗試一下。今年一月初，我們帶媽媽去紐約時，我們帶她去Oyster酒吧餐廳吃午飯，因為她很喜歡牡蠣和海鮮！ New menu is printed...

read moreEaster Brunch at Habitat Canmore
Yeah! It’s the long weekend and the weather was BEAUTIFUL! My husband and I drove to the Rocky Mountains with our dear friend for a much needed long weekend get away. We kept it schedule free, just wondered around the town of Canmore and soaked up our vitamin D with warm Spring sunshine and mountain fresh air. Rolling off the bed with the sound of running creek pass 10:30am, we were all hungry. Our local friend suggested we check out this restaurant called Habitat located at Grande Rockies Resort for their Easter Brunch. It’s $25...

Lougheed House is a historical house full of history. It’s located in downtown Calgary (on 13 Ave SW between 6 & 7 St). Most people don’t know that they also have a restaurant there – call “The Restaurant.” It serves lunch from Wednesday to Sunday (11am to 2pm MT) and brunch on Saturdays and Sundays from 10am to 2pm. The food is always good. They use as much local food as possible. It’s a lovely place for a nice brunch on the weekend with family – they take reservations & it’s...

We recently had an amazing dinner experience at Q Haute Cuisine in downtown Calgary! We will definitely go back for more! The Chef’s table in the kitchen sounds very interesting – that may be the next thing we try! If you are a foodie and love some extraordinary culinary surprises, then I’d recommend you to try the Chef’s tasting menu at Q Haute Cuisine with wine pairing. You can pick the number of courses and how many glasses of wine you prefer. It’s a great restaurant for a special occasion and for...
read more冬蟲夏草的價格比黃金還貴！Chinese Caterpillar Fungus – Dongchongxiacaojun is good for your health but bad for your bank account
這近兩個月，我一直在咳嗽！沒有喉嚨痛，就是乾咳 – 似乎是來從肺部深處。很惱人。我喝完了一個朋友為我做的冬蟲夏草泡的草藥酒。蟲草有止咳化痰、平喘的功效…它確實很有幫助 – 治好了咳嗽藥都沒用的咳，我喝了大概八-九天 (一次只要一小口. 我都只是在晚上睡覺前喝)，就不咳了。。所以，我也想要自己去做另一瓶 ，...
read moreGood Eat Review: Borgo Trattoria – Best Italian Restaurant in Calgary
We first read about Borgo Trattoria on Calgary Herald’s blog – it’s on the Air Canada’s enRoute magazine’s list for best new restaurants in 2012. We made a reservation for 6:30pm dinner. They only take reservations between 5pm to 6:30pm and after that it’s walk-ins (or shall we say “line-ups”) only. You could do walk in between 5pm and 6:30pm but we’d suggest you to make a reservation to secure your seats! Note: if you plan to go there for lunch, they do take lunch reservations. We ordered...
