My first stop at Downtown Dining Week. I enjoyed the breakfast sammich and cappuccino from Sharon Yeo's favorite eatery, Rosewood.

My Downtown Dining Week adventure continued at Dorinku Osaka. Good eats (especially the chicken karaage and the shaka shaka fries), nice staff, and lovely decor. The only blemish was the hot sake, which should have been served hot instead of warm.

Curious that PCL has only started working on this as I’ve been told yet Ellis Don has the rest of the resorts’ expansion. Might be able to post some sneak peek pics before hand.Gordon Ramsay’s Hell’s Kitchen, set to be the first in Canada, will now open at the River Cree Resort and Casino in Summer 2026, a slight pushback from its initial goal of an early 2026 opening announced last June.

Wonder how many millions the band paid Ramsay for this…..I know a ton of YYC’ers are losing their mind that we’re getting one before them, my response, “the ‘Tina’s just haven’t offered as much money as Enoch’s have.”

Dining Week impressions so far:
The Common—I got the mushroom ragu and my friend got the pulled pork. I enjoyed all three courses, but it felt a little meager for $35.
Eleven Eleven—a soup/salad and personal pizza for $15 is a steal. The pizza was better than I was expecting for what's essentially a sports bar.
Bar Oro—you get a cookie/cream puff, a non-alcoholic drink, and a pizza/pinsa. The cookie (a large macaron) and drink (a latte) were phenomenal as always. The pinsa was fine. I got the boscaiola and it had a bit too much of a fake truffle sort of aroma for me to fully enjoy. Also, the total cost of my items at their normal prices was less than the Dining Week price, which I only realized after the fact!
