| - If you ask anyone in Calgary about a great vegetarian place in Calgary, nine times out of ten, they'll tell you about The Coup.
But why go there when you can go to the Gratitude Cafe and not have to wait in line. I'm not a vegetarian but I still like going every now and then. For me, it is the equivalent of cleanse.
The portions at the gratitude cafe are huge, which I never expect from a veggie place. This time I got the quesadillas and the server gave me this board with about 25 ingredients. She let me choose exactly how many I want without any limit. So if you are really hungry, you can pack your food full of as many ingredients as you want. You definitely end up getting your moneys worth.
Be warned, it is one of those places that has flexible hours, so if they feel like they closing, they'll just close. So if you are thinking of going later in the evening make sure you call ahead. They are also usually out of their specials by the time the sun starts setting, so chances are you'll be stuck to the menu which is just find.
All the tables also have lots of boardgames to play while you are waiting for you food. I'm not terrified of germs, but this was a little too much for me, I'd rather not touch used board games that people played while they were eating their food. Maybe that is just me....
