This was my first experience with Taste of Calgary and it wasn't too bad. It wasn't quite as big or as busy as I expected, and the dessert selection was sorely limited, but the food I did try was excellent. I wish there had been more restaurants in attendance, as I came ready to spend! At Taste of Edmonton I always went multiple days and spent about $60-$100 on my favorite eats, but at at Taste of Calgary my boyfriend & I together only spent $30! Overall a great way to spend a few hours, but definitely needs a boost.
