eatery! There’s a great vibe in this little room on the Edmonton Trail where Carino was. Enjoy a maritime beer or a classic, but clever, cocktail like Peggy’s Coke and Maritime Mule with your garlic fingers and Brother’s Fried Pepperoni. Grate & Barrel
fam·i· ly style: [fam-uh-lee, fam-lee] Welcome back Grate & Barrel! Finally open in Bridgeland after a long wait, Calgary’s grilled cheese spot is back in business and easy to find in its little pink house. Bright and cheerful, with orange, red and yellow stripes, there’s nothing over $10 on this small, music-themed menu, and lots to love. Cowpuncher has Korean-style pulled pork, kimchi, gochujang, provolone and jalapeno jack, and is memorable – eat with swigs of tomato soup and dip it in house-made ketchup. The large, wraparound patio will soon be open, and there’s a rumour of fondue on Sunday nights! New on 9th Avenue SE, Calgary is 1912 Inglewood. The ex-Carmichael space is completely refurbished with black and white décor, and artwork by local artists and photographers on the walls. Vancouver chef, Michael Marko’s menu is simple and very tasty, and the 8-seat upstairs lounge is ideal for private parties and watching hockey games on the comfy couches. And there’s a piano player on Saturdays! Congrats to Monki’s new owners, Kaushik and Adi, on seamlessly taking over one of Calgary’s best loved breakfast spots. Fear not, many of our faves are still on the menu, like brisket and Monki sausage hash, but they’ve introduced fresh new dishes such as wild mushroom fricassee with rosemary, fried egg and bacon. Don’t miss the superb mimosas – fresh pressed grapefruit and mint lemonade is a star!
