📍The Wilde on 27 This award winning restaurant is one of my favourites in Calgary for celebration dinners or special date nights. They just came out with a new chef tasting menu which we tried over Valentines weekend and were blown away. It features some of the chefs favourite dishes on the menu, perfectly curated so you get a full experience of their restaurant. Highly recommended booking reservations early and calling in to reserve the all year heated patio seating! #calgaryfood #datenightyyc #yycfoodie #michelinkey
