Tony went for a latte or something and a pistachio croissant. Tony really liked his stuff. I enjoyed the scone but it was not very flavorful. But still good. Their drip coffee was cold so they offered me an americano. It was good. But the irony was the americano was too hot. But it's a nice place. May stop by again.

This was our last meal in Canada so I knew I wanted to try a vegan place. I also saw that they had…read morepoutine on the menu. Traditional poutine has beef in it so I can't do that, but this place is vegan so I was excited to try. I had the Buffalo chicken sandwich and my husband had the original burger. The meals here really slayed! Mine was surprisingly a little spicy. The lady at the counter was helpful and super nice ( as most Canadians are) . The actual store was casual but super cute. The poutine was SO good. To be honest I haven't tried real poutine so I can't say if it tasted the same, but the beef gravy with the cheese and fries was so comforting it made me sad to go back home where they don't offer poutine. 100% recommend this place to visitors wanting a cheaper meal that still tasted amazing!

Full of flavor despite it being vegan. We stopped by on our travels craving Vietnamese food and…read morethis place really hit all the right notes. The restaurant was pretty spacious and not very busy on a Saturday late afternoon. The place however was a little warm inside, maybe the AC wasn't working as they had some fans on. We ordered the vermicelli dish and pad Thai as the staff told us it was their most popular dish. The pad Thai was indeed one of our favorite. It had a unique smoky flavor to it. We also ordered the pho and eggplant dish. The pho had a surprisingly rich flavor. I would definitely recommend the pho. Overall we were very pleased with our meal and left full with hardly any left overs.

Being a vegetarian, I have had a hard time getting pho that's flavorful but the chefs here have magic in their hands, they have put so much heart and effort in packing so much flavor in their broths! I had the Sate Tofu Noodle Soup, ah can't get the taste out of my head!! Such richness, the freshness of the house made tofu paired with soft rice noodles was just beyond perfection!! The Pad Thai was also delicious: it missed one thing: crushed peanuts which we usually get at Thai restaurants. The restaurant has a very calm and peaceful auto to it!!! Full of large plants and a meditation area, it's a nice getaway from the corporate hustle outside. The place closes at 8, so reach early.

White Oak II, Veggie House, none of this overpriced Buddha's FUSIONBECAUSEWEDECIDEDTOPUTMEATONTHEMENU garbage. The lighting would be dingy, the walls would be made of room dividers, and if you asked nice, you could purchase the gluten required to make the stuff at home which I would often do. This was before nice little internet sources like Yelp would tell me where to go, so I would go seeking these places based on word of mouth from friends of friends. Fast forward to 2012, and Heart's Choice opens up in the CALGARY FARMERS MARKET, which is basically the equivalent to a yuppy farmers market shopping mall. This is a pretty neat little place, and they do all the work for you, so you don't even have to season the fake meats yourself. Thaw, throw it in a pan with some veggies, and you have yourself some classy Chinese/Thai inspired food. They even make some pretty bomb curries that you can buy frozen if you're too lazy to make yer own. Yay! No hard labor in the kitchen, and no animal suffering! While I was a little irritated at the SURPRISE of patrons, that they could possibly be enjoying something NOT made out of a corpse (hi, it's 2012 you cavemen creeps), I am really happy to see Heart's Choice thrive. The owner and I had a nice chat about the struggles of following a vegetarian diet sometimes in Calgary, and I congratulated her on these awesome products which are winning the hearts of even non-vegetarians. I myself went home with her two recommendations, some ginger "chicken", and black pepper "beef" steaks that I plan to throw into a wok with some Shanghai noodles, carrots, bok choy, and broccoli. Also, Le's Vietnamese Subs a few rows down makes a killer vegan kungpao chicken sub with some of the proteins sold at Heart's Choice. *Review 9/30 for Yelp's 30 day challenge 2012
