We’ve taken quite a few walks down memory lane over the last few weeks, but never once did we stop for a bite to eat! This year, despite COVID closures and craziness, we actually saw a ton of new restaurants open up all over Calgary. From fusion spots to experimental dessert spots, we’ve really seen it all.

Truth be told, due to restrictions, we haven’t had a chance to check every single one of them off of our “to-eat” list – but we’re hoping 2021 is our year! Here are only some of the places that have popped up over the last few months!

Here’s to the next 365 of tasty treats, delicious dinners and experimental eats!
