I love love love Charcut’s daily lunch specials. This is a restaurant that is unassuming, despite it’s many accolades, success and recognition on “where to eat” lists throughout the country. For only $15, you can grab a sit down with your colleagues (while still looking fancy) and try their parmesan fries, a daily soup or…

More than just “Salt & Pepper”
Locally owned with character plating and décor, this restaurant offers platters to sample & share as well as entrees ranging from $14-~$20. They have some pretty enticing weeknight specials which would be great for a midweek yyc date night.

If you follow my posts you’ve likely realized I have a penchant for fried chicken. So of course I ordered the Buttermilk Chicken Slider. For a slider, this was a HUGE portion size. I also picked off a friend’s chicken salad with parmesan dressing – and it was absolutely delicious. Use the term “salad” loosely as…
National on 8th – Scotch Egg
This is not a full review of the restaurant – just of one appy to go with my beer: The Scotch Egg. What is a scotch egg? It is a medium poached egg wrapped in sausage and deep fried in batter. The trick is not overcooking the yolk – which is really hard to do….
