Celebrating this beautiful weather with @lukesdrugmart's latest soft serve - Supermilk & Chocolate Deluxe 🍦 with Chocolate Pocky, cocoa sprinkles and @dicktaylorchocolate cocoa. #yycsbest #yyceats #yycfood #icecream #softserve #softserveicecream #dessert #sweettooth #sweettreats #lukesdrugmartThe Best Yet - loving their new take on some of my faves on @thebridgettebar's latest menu. The Chicken Liver Mousse now with pear and crispy shallots is fantastic! That pear 🍐 totally makes the dish! 👌 Of course, we had to have our fill of their awesome Eggplant Fries, Garlic Bread, and Hummus Chips, and couldn't go without our all-time favorite entree - the Wood Roasted Duck with Creamed Corn and Chanterelles. And their new version of Brussels Sprouts with pecorino cream was a hit too! For dessert, I really had to fight the temptation and not have my latest fave (the Charred Marshmallow Opera Cake) in order to try one of their newest desserts - the Sweet Potato Cake with malted barley ice cream, maple toffee sauce and candied walnuts. That ice cream was definitely the star of the show! 💯 #yycsbest #yyceats #yycfood #bridgettebaryyc #awesome #amazing #capturecalgary #yycliving #chickenlivermousse #myfaveDiscovered some notable gems @rockywinefood this year: 1. As a long time fan of the @meiomiwines Pinot Noir, I was happy to discover that their rosé is also top notch 2. Loved the @citycountrywine Okanagan White blend & their Similkameen Rosé is like summer in a glass; the @spirithillswinery Bonfire Mulled Wine will be perfect for those snowy days; the @castorodeoro Viognier is fruity yet unusually dry; the Garzon Reserva Albarino is the first wine I tried from Uruguay and it was delish 3. There Strawberry 🍓 Nigori Sake is like dessert in a glass 4. Can't tell you how stoked I am that we can now get Shin Yuzu Wine here in #yyc 5. The Kubota Manju Junmai Daiginjo is probably some of the best sake I've ever tasted 👌 6. The Brandy Umeshu is super smooth and the perfect after dinner drink 🥃 7. The White Oak Aged Whisky Umeshu is a unique plum liqueur that's aged in white oak casks and finished with Akashi whisky. (Thanks @wandabaker_ for the recommendation! I managed to snag the last bottle!) 8. Loved the newly released HoneyBerry Gin made with haskap berries and the Medica Honey Liqueur from @burwooddistillery 9. The Peppercorn Gin by @rawspiritsab in Canmore will make a delicious Caesar. 10. @steinhartdistillery's Habanero Vodka with pineapple🍍 juice is a match made in heaven #yyceats #yycfood #yyccocktails #yycevents #rmwff #rmwff2018 #rockymountainwineandfoodfestival #rockymountainwinefestival #wineandfoodfestivalWeekend dim sum with the famjam at my go to spot in the basement of the Chinese Cultural Centre. Love their Eggplant Stuffed with Shrimp Paste and of course the Sweet Creamy Egg Yolk Buns. 👌 #yyceats #yycfood #dimsum #chinatown #chinesefood #liushabao #eggyolkcustardbun #ricecrepe #dumplingsWow, this SQUID INK SPAGHETTI @eatforeign with chili prawns, clams, and octopus in a lobster emulsion is a total flavor 💣! I'd be dying to try this dish and it totally knocked my socks off! Hands down, easily my new fave dish at Foreign Concept! 💯 #yycsbest #yyceats #yycfood #squidinkspaghetti #seafoodlove #flavorbomb #pastalove #comfortfood #spaghetti #pastaNOODLE ON THE ROAD // One of the newest and most beautiful noodle shops in town. I was totally mesmerized by the decor the moment I step foot in the restaurant as it doesn't look like your typical noodle shop. Located within Dragon City Mall in #chinatownyyc, 'Noodle on the Road' serves up Xi'an style noodle dishes. I've been missing the hand pulled biang biang noodles from Auntie's Chinese Burger ever since they closed up shop in their original location (they have since reopened in a new location but I don't believe they are serving those noodles any more), so these hand pulled noodles with chili oil really hit the spot. 💯 Loved the chewiness of the hand pulled noodles! My colleague tried the Chinese pulled spiced pork biang noodles with poached vegetables (potatoes, carrots, green beans) and bok choy. PRO TIP - try to toss the noodles thoroughly to coat all the noodles with sauce/chili oil prior to eating, otherwise the noodles will taste bland. #yyceats #yycfood #handpullednoodles #biangbiangnoodles #noodles #noodlecravings #noodleontheroad #chinesefood #noodsThe best part about turkey leftovers is making Turkey Congee. I started off making the turkey bone broth from scratch with the carcass in my @instantpotofficial. I then made the congee with shiitake mushrooms and dried oysters and then finished it with scallions, cilantro, fried garlic and crispy shallots. #yyceats #yycfood #homecooking #homemade #madefromscratch #comfortfood #instantpot #chinesefood #congee #turkeyleftoversJESMONA BLACK BULLETS - a gift from a friend who brought them back from England. It's my first time trying these handmade traditional North England sweets. This popular mint flavored hard candy has been in existence since 1906 and is made from just 3 simple ingredients - sugar, glucose and peppermint oil. #englishsweets #jesmonaoldfashionedblackbullets #oldfashionedblackbullets #sweets #candy #confectionery #sweettooth #sweattreatsThe perfect afternoon snack - Green Halo and Autumn Haze pressed aburi sushi from @bigcatchcalgary! Sad that their last day @marketonmacleod will be Oct 21 but happy to learn they will be re-opening in a new location near the Save-Ons on MacLeod in Nov. 🍣 #yyceats #yycfood #sushilove #sushi #aburisushi #oshisushi #marketonmacleod #japanesefood #bigcatchyyc
