Homey Cafe and grocery

Beautiful place tucked into a strip mall/industrial building. The inside is clean and beautifully decorated. The owner is incredibly warm and welcoming. Her food is absolutely delicious and the price is perfect. I have celiac so I was directed to the safe choices for me and I enjoyed a chicken noodle soup. My husband enjoyed his wontons and dumplings. They smelled fantastic! Our daughter had the sesame buns and she was pleased.

My absolutely favorite vegan restaurant in Calgary!!! The owner is such a lovely person and the food is top tier! I plan to try everything on the menu that I can (gluten allergy). I have enjoyed every meal I have tried so far!

Okay, so I'm a vegetarian of 5 years and had heard through the grapevine that this place is a hidden gem. 100% correct. Had some errands in the city near the cafe (I live in Airdrie) and decided to stop in. It being 330pm on a Thursday, it was very empty, but that didn't stop the proprietor from making me very welcome and assisting me with what to choose (bc I had no idea). A bunch of choices later, she bustled away to prepare my order, and I spent some time perusing the storefront portion of the establishment, which is completely vegan/vegetarian friendly and had some ingredients i didn't know i needed. The drinks and food came out in short order, and I quickly, and very happily, dug into some freshly made pan-fried dumplings and then bbq "pork" steamed buns. Seriously, amaze-balls and 100% did not notice that they didn't contain animal products. Or nuts or gluten (not a thing for me but others can appreciate). After I inhaled 2 persons worth of food (so good), my rubber arm was twisted when I went to grab some additional frozen packs of the steamed buns, and I ended up procuring 2 sample packs that she (Im sorry, I completely forgot her name) creates for people to make at home. Considering that I left completely full, satisfied with what I ate, had a wonderful interaction AND purchased additional items (2 sample packs and vegan worstershire sauce), I paid less then what I've often paid at other Asian restaurants, well under $100. Oh, and I didn't partake, as I was solo, but she also does hot pot! Btw, I just made up one of the mix packs at home, and it was absolutely fire (pic included, just missing the BBQ 'pork' steamed bun bc i left it in my steamer) Tldr: hidden gem, fantastic food, prices and service, 100% will return.
