Meat the Bun

August 24, 2021.Reading time 7 minutes.

There are so many new communities developing around Edmonton and aside from all the beautiful, newly built homes, my favourite thing is finding the hidden food gems in these areas. Too often, I notice that the suburbs around the city seldom have something unique and local. Sure, chain restaurants are convenient and well-loved but as […]

Co Chin Saigon

If you’re looking for an authentic take on Vietnamese food, Co Chin Saigon should be your next stop! Their menu offers a good variety of Vietnamese dishes that you’re unlikely to find elsewhere. After eyeing their social media posts for some time, I finally decided to make a visit and left feeling satisfied with what […]

Del Posto Italian Kitchen

If you’re looking for some Italian eats, consider Del Posto Italian Kitchen. Located on 107th St and Jasper Ave, this quaint restaurant opened up a few months ago and they have a menu full of Italian favourites. I’ve seen a few spots come and go in this space but I’m hoping that the owners of […]

Kanto 98 St Eatery has been on my radar for a while now… I recently learned that they have tacos on their menu every Wednesday and finally popped in for dinner. Better now than never, right?!

Al Salam Restaurant

If you’ve been following me for a while now, you might know that I often frequent Al Salam Pita Bakery! It’s one of my favourite places to grab food and it’s easily one of my top picks for Mediterranean eats in Edmonton (especially South Edmonton where there’s limited options). Their chicken shawarma platter is THE […]

New restaurant alert! Boxer – Albertan Kitchen & Bar has recently opened their doors, taking over Holy Roller’s old space. From the same team who brought us The Alamanac and Solstice, Boxer’s menu features craft cocktails and seasonal fare made with local ingredients. I went here for a catch up date with a friend and […]

Machef

July 6, 2020.Reading time 6 minutes.

Here’s to continuing my streak of checking out all the Korean restaurants in YEG. One of my pre-pandemic ventures was a visit to Machef. In comparison to other Korean spots, Machef does offer a smaller menu but don’t let that stop you from checking them out. The food is really good and the service/atmosphere was […]

Graham’s Jerkhouse

May 29, 2020.Reading time 7 minutes.

Jerk chicken is one dish that I often crave but cannot always easily get. There are definitely a few great spots in the city to grab Jamaican food but they’re not always the most accessible for me, personally. So when I discovered Graham’s Jerkhouse on Instagram, it felt like I hit the jackpot because they […]

Rae Mi Hyang

Looking for a hidden gem? Rae Mi Hyang is it! This locally owned, Korean-Chinese restaurant isn’t new by any means but it was my first time visiting (pre-pandemic) and I thought their food was excellent so I wanted to share what they had to offer.

Sepp’s Pizza

Let’s talk about my latest go-to pizza spot: Sepps Pizza! It started out with me seeing their pizzas all over my social media and I have to say… after a few visits, they’ve definitely lived up to all the good things I’ve heard about them. During this time where takeout/delivery is practically our only choice […]
