The White Spot- Calgary

Philly CheesesteakYesterday we headed out to one of the kids favorite restaurants, The White Spot. It was our first time going since Erik has turned 11 which meant he got to order off of the adult menu. It is funny watching him peruse the menu and then order a huge meal. He pretty much always gets the Burger as it is his favorite food. Yesterday was no exception and he thoroughly enjoyed his BBQ Bacon Cheddar Burger. The best part for me is always the coleslaw. The White Spot has the best coleslaw, I think I like it because the sunflower seeds that they add makes it have a delicious crunch. Along with the super yummy coleslaw I had the Philly Cheesesteak as well as some french fries. Everything was pretty good, my only complaint would be I think we were seated right under the air conditioner so by the end of the meal we were all human popsicles! We will be back, many times over I am sure.

Harvest Cafe- Canmore

Harvest CafeYesterday I had the absolute pleasure to eat at The Harvest Cafe in Canmore. It is an absolutely adorable little cafe set in the middle of town, they serve soup, sandwiches, desserts and what looked like a tasty little breakfast menu. However we were there for lunch, so the eggs we did not try, we did however eat soup and sandwiches until ready to burst. My poor delicious cauliflower soup didn’t even get finished because I was just plain too full. I started the meal with a creamy hot chocolate. It was a drizzly rainy day so I was happy to warm up while we waited for our food to come. Then was the meal, I had a chicken and brie wrap, it was served with a delicious cranberry mayo and a cup of cauliflower herb soup on the side. The sandwich was quite flavorful, cheesy goodness abounded, and the cranberry mayo was the a perfectly matched little jolt of flavor. My husband had the Canmore specialty Grizzly Paw Root Beer to start, I stole some, it was great. Then the b.l.t and tomato soup , all was good, he said his meal was just perfect. We both liked that the mayo actually came on the side as a dip instead of on the sandwich , really nice touch! Overall, I would say if you are ever in Canmore this is a restaurant that you simply must try!

Coach and Horses Ale room

Ginger Beef BowlLast night we finally got to see the Avengers! So exciting! It was amazing, and that ends my review because I don’t want to give away anything to you all who haven’t seen it yet, except this, The Hulk was Awesome! Dinner and a movie is my very favorite date, I love eating out, I love movies, combine the two and you have a perfect evening in my opinion. We went to a pub in Millrise for dinner called The Coach and Horses Ale Room. It was a great choice! A huge menu with lots of variety, very friendly wait staff and nice decor. We started with some wngs to share as it was 25 cent wing night. Clarke had the clubhouse sandwich with fries and gravy, I tried out the Ginger Beef Bowl over noodles. Everything was delicious, I think this may even be my new favorite pub!ClubhouseCoach & Horses Ale Room on Urbanspoon
