THE CALGARY FOOD SCENE

Looking for the top food influencers in Calgary? Check this out!

One of the most exciting things about visiting a new city is checking out the local cuisine and the special dishes that a place is known for. Calgary is no different, it offers food selections for a diverse food connoisseur’s taste and preference. While many people know Calgary for it’s beef, there is a diverse international experience waiting to be had with cuisine from Italy, France, India, Mexico, and Asia.

Calgary’s food scene isn’t often mentioned, but the city is home to some amazing dishes that are uniquely Calgarian. Here are a few things to try if you have a chance to visit this western Canadian city.

Alberta Beef

You can’t eat in Calgary without including some type of beef. Alberta is the leading beef producer in Canada, known globally for producing rich tasting quality meat. And, there’s not a shortage of steakhouses to dine at to satisfy your protein desires. Calgary restaurants provide an opportunity to feast on juicy steaks, burgers, briskets, and filets.

Poutine

This classic French-Canadian junk food is a must have when visiting Calgary. Basic poutine commonly features french fries that are topped with cheese curds and brown gravy. Some Calgarian restaurants kick up the flavor of this classic by frying the fries in duck fat or adding it to breakfast menus with additional toppings like bacon, chicken or poached eggs.

Banh Mi

Alberta has one of the largest populations of Vietnamese, many who call Calgary home. So it makes sense that Banh Mi has become a popular food for the city. You will commonly see street vendors dishing up baguettes that are filled with meats, cilantro, cucumber, onion, chilies and pickled veggies wherever you go. You don’t want to miss out on this Vietnamese sub sandwich, it’s so good!

Ginger Beef

It might be surprising to see a Chinese dish on a list of unique foods to try in Calgary, but ginger beef is an iconic dish of the city. You can find it at almost every Chinese restaurant in Calgary thanks to Chef George Wong, the inventor. He created the dish in the 1970s to appeal to western palates and it quickly became a Calgary favorite with its deep-fried beef, ginger, peppers, carrots, and onions in a sweet sauce.
