By far, our favourite thing here, and the best you'll find in the entire city, and arguably Canada, is the RAMEN! IT IS AMAZING. However, the rest of the menu is an interesting and delicious fusion of Japanese and Italian food. The owner had a very successful ramen shop previously but felt he couldn't keep both restaurants and his sanity as it was just too much for one person. If you love ramen, make sure to go! The duck confit with yuzu is to die for!

BEST CHOCOLATE CROISSANT IN THE CITY. They also have wonderful sourdough bread, sweet treats, sandwiches and creative salads. They have multiple locations but the one in the East Village is definitely worth a visit! Located in the historic Simmons building along with Phil and Sebastian Coffee and Char Bar restaurant.

In the winter Bowness Park has the best outdoor skating rink in the city (in our humble opinion!). It is HUGE and there are fires to warm your toes up by. In the summer, it is the launching point for many people to float down the Bow River. On warm days you'll see people inflating rafts and inner tubes to float all the way to the East Village downtown on the Bow. If you join in on the fun be sure to have a life jacket as the river is patrolled and fines can be handed out to those without PFD's.
