Finally made it back to @dandytastingroom for lunch to try more of chef @merritt_gordon's menu. We started off with the Crispy Chicken Skins with liver mousse, red onions & sumac. It was delish especially paired with the @dandyalesyyc 'All the Young Dudes' Dry Hopped Sour. 👌🏻 For mains, the Beef Tripe Gratin with chorizo & artichokes caught our eye. My favorite of the day was the feature Gnocchi with melt in your mouth tender Braised Pork Cheeks & Watercress. #yyceats #yycfood #yycliving #yycfoodie #lunch #dandytastingroom #dandyalesyyc #ramsayyyc[✨GIVEAWAY for Canada & USA✨] I’m always on the go and @revivesuperfoods has saved me from having to spend time making a healthy breakfast every morning.

Goodluck! 🍀 . . . *Sponsored *Gifted #yycgiveaway #yyceats #yycfood #yycfoodie #yyccontest #smoothie #breakfast #breakfastonthego #healthylifestyleReally digging these "vegetable" cocktails from @shelter.yyc's 'Nightmare on 1st Street' seasonal cocktail pop-up. 😍 The 24 Carrot Gold with Espolon Reposado, carrot, ginger, passionfruit & lime was tasty, complex yet really well balanced. My personal favorite was the earthy Borscht Negroni with Glendalough Wild Botanical Gin, dill, Campari, beet, cocchi torino & lemon. What we really came for though was more of Chef Mikko's Chili Rellenos 💕, Tiradito, and fluffy Brown Butter Cinnamon Glazed Donuts. I love the Chili Relleno topped with salsa verde and pineapple habanero salsa. 👌🏻 If you're curious to try these amazing lightly battered roasted chicken and potato stuffed jalapeno peppers that I've been raving about, the @conmitaco pop-up runs Tuesday to Saturday every week for the next few months. #yyceats #yycfood #yycliving #yycfoodie #yyccocktails #mexicanfood #chilirelleno #tacopopup #conmitaco #cocktailsThis snowy weather has me craving Katsu Curry 🍛 from @katsuten_calgary. Also love their Assorted Katsu with pork tenderloin, cheese, and prawns. There's no doubt their Katsu is the best in town! #yycsbest #yyceats #yycfood #yycfoodie #yycliving #japanesefood #katsu #katsucurry #japanesecurry #comfortfoodStill dreaming about those Chili Relleno 🌮's by @conmitaco at the @shelter.yyc pop-up. 💯 To be honest, I prefer them deconstructed and use the tortillas as a vehicle for all the delicious salsa. Those lightly battered roasted chicken & potato stuffed jalapenos are the perfect bite! 😍 I just might have to pop by one more time before they change the menu. If you go, don't forget to save room for those amazing brown butter & cinnamon glazed donuts with Mexican coffee cream.👌🏻 On my last visit, we also checked out some of the seasonal cocktails on Shelter's Nightmare on 1st Street menu - Drunk Uncle, Scandinavian Winter and Five Golden Rings. 🥃 #yyceats #yycfood #yycliving #yycfoodie #mexicanfood #tacolove #tacopopup #tacotuesday #tacos #conmitacoSatisfying my ramen 🍜 cravings @ramenichinenyyc. I don't get to go there often enough but I lucked out this week and managed to go twice. 🙌🏻 Their Tonkotsu Gyokai Tsukemen is definitely still my favorite! 💯 If you're looking for something spicy to warm you up, I highly recommend the Tonkotsu Red. That spicy miso is 👌🏻! And today for the first time, I tried the Spicy Mazemen with ground pork, simmered egg, seaweed, green onion, bonito flakes and chili threads. #yycsbest #yyceats #yycfood #yycfoodie #yycliving #ramenlove #ramen #noodlecravings #japanesefood #ramenichinenyycI'm super excited that @yifangtea.calgary now has a Uji Matcha Brown Sugar Pearl Latte as it's a combination of my two favorites - uji matcha & brown sugar pearls - in one drink. I love that it has an intense matcha flavour 🍵 although at 50% sweetness with regular ice, it was still a bit too sweet for me. I'll have to try for 30% sweetness next time. Overall, the drink tasted pretty good despite the few matcha clumps so I'd definitely give it a try again. #yyceats #yycfood #yycliving #bubbletea #brownsugarpearllatte #brownsugarpearlmatchalatte #yifang #boba #bbt #matchaThe fried whole fish at White Elephant Thai Cuisine with chili sauce, pineapple, peppers, basil, kaffir lime leaves and cilantro was a total flavour 💣! It tasted AMAZING especially with some coconut rice. 😍 I'd definitely go out of my way to have it again. Of all the dishes I've tried at White Elephant, this fish was definitely the most memorable. We also tried the Garlic Pepper Shrimp. It was ok but totally paled in comparison to the fish. #yyceats #yycfood #yycliving #yycfoodie #hiddengem #thaifood #whiteelephantthaicuisine #friedfish #spicygoodnessSome outstanding bites @shokuninyyc to celebrate the debut of canned Okami Kasu 🍺. Okami Kasu, the world's first sake-kasu beer, is the brainchild of @chefdarrenmaclean in collaboration with Chris Carroll of @ol_beautifulbrewingco. This beer, with its unique creamy finish, is the perfect pairing with Japanese food. My favorite bites included the Cold Shucked Scallop with yuzu kosho nuoc cham & cilantro stem salsa, Bubu Arare coated Veal Sweetbreads and the Tuna Tartare on Nori Crisps. 😍 . Okami Kasu, which was previously only available at Shokunin and the brewery, is now available in cans at select liquor retailers across Alberta including @5_vines @the.brewers.apprentice @collectivecraftbeershop @jwebbwine @marketwines.yyc @oak_and_vine @sundancewinemarket @vinearts. . . Many thanks to @chefdarrenmaclean @shokuninyyc @ol_beautifulbrewingco and @immediapr for the invite to this special celebration! Kanpai! 🍻 . . *hosted #yyceats #yycfood #yycliving #yycbeer #yycfoodie #shokuninyyc #japanesefood #okamikasu #olbeautifulbrewing #perfectpairing
