I have been wanting to try out Buffalo Wild Wings since I saw that it opened, so the family and I finally made it out on Sunday. This restaurant definitely has the sports bar feel with loud T.V’s all around you all playing different various sports channels, but it also has kid’s menus! The kids all loved this place, and unlike their parents, actually ordered the wings. I thought kid’s meals were pretty well priced, for 4.49 you get a choice between wings, chicken fingers or cheeseburger all with fries, however, a drink is apparently not included as we discovered when we got our bill. My husband had the burger and was really quite thrilled with, even proclaiming it to be one of the best burgers in the city. I was quite happy with my buffalo chicken wrap that came with tortillas and salsa. All in all we had a wonderful time, and will be returning for sure.

Brewsters – Calgary
Last night was our annual siblings dinner out. A triple date is you will. We started out the evening at Brewsters, and shared some appetizers. We went for the Lobster Artichoke Dip, it was amazing, plus the honey garlic wings, also amazing, and the calamari which I didn’t try but every one else said it was amazing. Okay, so you get the picture, we liked the appetizers. Now on to the meal portion, I had the Crispy Chicken Ranch Burger with a side of sweet potatoes. It tasted exactly like I thought it would according to the menu description, and let’s be honest with ourselves, that is a rare thing. For dessert we all shared the leprechaun Pie, and the Raspberry Chocolate Cheesecake, again, I didn’t actually try these, however, everybody else seemed to enjoy them immensely. So all in all, we had a great dinner out. Next, was home for Settlers of Catan, and I was the champion! Woo hoo!
The Black Swan-Calgary
On holiday Monday my husband and I had the pleasure of spending the day together sans kids. I will admit we missed the little monkeys, but they were off having a great time with their Grandparents so we had a date! We couldn’t decide what movie to go to, so since we didn’t have kids for the whole day we took in a matinée and an evening show. It was fun! We started with The Dark Knight Rises, excellent end to the trilogy. The evening show was The Amazing Spider-man, we really liked that one too. We went for dinner at The Black Swan (cuz I love me some pub food), it was really quiet, the waitress informed us long weekends are really slow there, so we got to enjoy a lovely quiet dinner for two. We also enjoyed some dart playing, so overall it was a really fun day. The Black Swan’s menu had lots to choose from, I really had a hard time making a decision, so I went with an old British classic, the bangers and mash. The mashed potatoes and gravy were the best part of the meal, in fact hubs kept stealing some of my plate. Everything was great, we both really enjoyed our meals.

Coach and Horses Ale room
Last night we finally got to see the Avengers! So exciting! It was amazing, and that ends my review because I don’t want to give away anything to you all who haven’t seen it yet, except this, The Hulk was Awesome! Dinner and a movie is my very favorite date, I love eating out, I love movies, combine the two and you have a perfect evening in my opinion. We went to a pub in Millrise for dinner called The Coach and Horses Ale Room. It was a great choice! A huge menu with lots of variety, very friendly wait staff and nice decor. We started with some wngs to share as it was 25 cent wing night. Clarke had the clubhouse sandwich with fries and gravy, I tried out the Ginger Beef Bowl over noodles. Everything was delicious, I think this may even be my new favorite pub!
