Oh.....heaven is here on earth?! I wasn't sure until I found Coup on a trip to Calgary. And I have returned for multiple meals every time I am in the city!
The first time I went was on lunch break from a yoga workshop just down the street. I was so happy there was a vegetarian place in the area as it makes my veggie life a whole lot easier! It was a cold 6 block walk, but well worth it. I had a flowering tea and the Hot Pot which changed my world. So delicious. And I think it was the first time I had eaten Lotus Root. I was craving more so I went back that night and had the Satay Bowl. Also amazing. Also filling. I couldn't finish it all!
A week later I was back in the city with my fiance. He was also excited about a veggie place that was so close to where we were staying. We decided to check it out for lunch and he was also very pleased. I didn't stray too far and I had the Hot Pot again as I had been thinking about it all week. He had a veggie bowl with falafel and an amazingly tangy dressing. I only got one bite, but I thought it was great and judging by the time it took to disappear, he also thought it was great.
I will be back to try more on their amazing menu! There is enough variety to keep me interested for a while, although that Hot Pot alone is enough to keep me coming back again and again and again and again and....
