DM Blog Design Changes…
This weekend, I updated my blog to the new Worpress v2.5 and changed the theme to Arun Kale's "The Morning After" theme. Post a comment and let me know what you think!
Calgary Earth Hour
Michelle and I decided we'd walk up the hill with our dogs to Crescent Road and take in the view of Downtown Calgary during Earth Hour. We took some pictures and as you can see, The City of Calgary and downtown businesses really took it to heart! (sarcasm)
Broken Plate Kensington
We've been living in Sunnyside since last July (2007) - Kensington is just a short walk away and downtown Calgary is just across the river. It's great to have so many restaurants close by. After passing by the Broken Plate in Kensington so many times, we finally decided to go try it out last Wednesday night for dinner. We (three of us) got there at around 7:30pm or so and the restaurant seemed to be pretty busy for a Wednesday night. We hadn't made a reservation in advance but...
Donairs at A & A Foods
My favorite place for donairs, (and the best I've been able to find in Calgary), is A & A Foods at 1401 - 20 Ave NW. Everything is very fresh, the donair meat is seasoned perfectly and is exceptionally moist. The donairs come in three sizes: small, medium and large. The small size is adequate for most people and is equivalent to what is considered a "large" everywhere else. Also of note is that they are very generous with the meat. All-in-all, it's a great donair and I highly recommend it.
Sample Arrangements
I recently (finally) uploaded some new sample charts/arrangements to my ¡Gózalo! website. Have a listen and let me know what you think: Gozalo.ca/charts
10 Places to Eat in Toronto
There are so many great places to eat in Toronto that it can give you option anxiety. It's one of the biggest things I miss about Toronto - the culture and the numerous restaurants. Out here in Calgary you mostly find large chains and it's nothing like what you get from the smaller independent restaurants that line the streets of Toronto.
