Bonjour Café Bicyclette

While on the south side and looking for a simple, peaceful lunch we decided to try Café Bicyclette. This quaint little café nestled next to the Campus St. Jean in Edmonton is a great place to find fresh food at a reasonable price. While the menu is entirely in French, the staff are helpful, friendly, and willing to assist with translation. Though, for anyone with basic French language skills (we’re talking elementary school) it should be easy enough. 

Mini Review: Food Blogger Meetup at The Common

A couple of weeks ago Steph, Jackie, and her fiancee Becky, embarked on an adventure: our first food blogger meetup! Organized by Marianne and Maki (of Loosen Your Belt and In My Element respectively) this would be our first chance to meet and eat with fellow Edmonton food bloggers. Naturally we were very excited (and maybe a teensy bit nervous) to meet everyone, especially since it was being held at The Common which we had never been to!

The Pourhouse Leaves Us Poor

After our last review of the scrumptious Duchess bakery, we thought we would head somewhere completely different this time around, and settled on the Pourhouse Bier Bistro. Located on Whyte Ave across from the Princess Theatre, an easy-to-miss storefront hides a long, narrow modern pub, with cheeky decor and plenty of brews. Boasting a brand new menu, and brandishing the title of "gastropub", they are working to join the ranks of awesome casual eats on Whyte Ave. A perennial favorite of ours for their amazing soft pretzels and ample beer offerings, we decided to cash in a Groupon and invite our friends Jeff and Becky to join us for a full meal at the Pourhouse.
