{Local Loves} Petite Restaurant - Big Flavor

I was lucky enough to enjoy the fantastic Rocky Mountain Food & Wine Festival in Calgary this past Weekend and man....was I ever impressed! We had the opportunity to sample the Calgary restaurant industry's up & comers and heavy hitters and I was so impressed with this city's culinary genius!
However, some stood out above the rest.  Petite was serving mushroom ravioli and mini bison burgers with horseradish sauce and every bite literally melted in my mouth!  It was fantastic.  I received a buy-one get-one entree 50% off coupon and will definitely be visiting them to taste more of their super indulgent menu!  The space may be petite but the flavor is énorme!

{Local Love} New Wave Coffe Shop Rolls Into Town

Waves Coffe House has just opened their new location on 17th ave! Not only are their coffee and tea mixtures some of the frothiest and smoothest I have ever had in Calgary, but the new space is just as amazing.  This coffee house is more like a coffee main office with a full meeting room, (flat screen and fireplace included) tons of seating and a wrap around porch.  Not to mention, their catch phrase is,”a place to connect” so don’t worry about paying for wireless. These web waves are 100% free. Not a coffee drinker? No problem.  Try the Rooibos Symphony….un-be-lievable.  It’s basically 2 shots of African Rooibos tea and a scoop of white chocolate chips melted into velvety steamed milk! So….heaven in a to-go-cup.

They are currently offering $1 off their new Pumpkin Spice Chai Latte so catch the Wave today!

*Local Likes* The “sweetener” syrup at the condiment bar.  Though it is still made with Splenda, it mixes much better and does not seem to have such a “fake sugar-y” aftertaste.
