I'm not sure if the folks in Calgary just do not have as good as restaurants as we do here in the States, but both restaurants that were recommended to me during my quick visit were just alright.
I had brunch with a few colleagues Sunday morning after they raved and raved about the food and atmosphere. To say I was disappointed would be an understatement. The food was fine, not great. The service was fine, not great. Overall, it was fine...not great.
I ordered the Crepomelette which is slathered with hollandaise sauce. The sauce was lukewarm and the omelette tasted like it had been sitting for a while. The food really reminded me of an IHOP or Denny's - not some place that received raving reviews from my colleagues.
