I have learned only recently how important it is to have restaurant or food recommendations from a real live person. The internet is good in a pinch and there are some websites I love (DineHere.ca http://dinehere.ca/vancouver) but nothing is as good as one human being talking to anther human being about a human need: good food.
Our flight to Calgary was somewhat delayed, but I was able to catch up with a work mate and friend on the flight who was seated right behind us. Since we were delayed she was able to use her cell phone to call friends of hers who live in Calgary and put me on the phone with them to ask for their recommendation for a good meal. It was amazing. We dined in splendour at Blinkhttp://blinkcalgary.com/ thanks to Steven's recommendation.
The next day after spending lots of time and money at the Kensington Wine Market we took Andrew's recommendation and ate at the Brasserie which makes fries in duck fat!
