Choosing where to go is always a challenge — but here is my best attempt at my top four favourite dinner spots I stop by every time I’m in Calgary.

Montreal is a vibrant and diverse city with a rich cultural heritage and an infectious spirit. Some say the city has a “Joie de Vivre,” which translates to “joy of living.” Montreal has a sophisticated, cosmopolitan and festive atmosphere
