It turns out y’all really love fried chicken. So much so that my post on the first fried chicken crawl generated so many more great recommendations that I had to do a second round. It’s a tough job, but somebody’s gotta do it. I kept the format the same as last time, which means the tasting […]

Edmonton Fried Chicken Crawl
Ever since starting this blog I’ve wanted to assemble a few people and blind taste test a bunch of Edmonton’s fried chicken, then compare notes and pick our favourites. It’s been years since this idea took hold and I can finally cross it off my “must blog” list. The assembled judges included myself and my […]

I guess you could say that employing a detailed analysis method to find the best of <insert tasty food stuff here> has […]
The Great Edmonton Perogy Showdown
Edmonton is a bit of a hotbed for perogies, due to our large Ukrainian population, but it seems that everyone has their own ideas on where to find the best ones. Since the demand for perogies goes way up at Christmas, I decided that I should make an effort to find the best ones for […]
Stress and Stage-fright: A Recipe for Success
For weeks I’ve been stressing about competing in the Food Bloggers Cook-off as part of A Taste of Edmonton. I had agreed to compete against 2 other fierce competitors, Teresa, and Michelle, in a timed competition on-stage in front of an audience under instructions to create our best “food truck entree”. I’ve never cooked for […]
