She's not 'some New York chef'. Like another poster mentioned, she's more of a food blogger. She is a lawyer by trade and won a season of the Great American Baking Competition.

Make sure to get paid up front

Heading there this weekend for a bachelor party. Half the group renting a cabin in Banff tomorrow and meeting the rest of us in the city Friday. All of our first times, any pro tips?

I really enjoyed The Test Kitchen. It's the more casual sister restaurant of the highly rated Pot Luck Club (often listen on top 50 restaurants in the world). I'd suggest going there for a lunch then checking out the Neighbourgood's Market (farmer's market) in Old Biscuit Mill after.

Aubergine was also very good, a little more fine dining.

If you have time to go to wine country, there will be great scenery and food and drinks as well. I'd suggest getting a driver for that.

If your phone is unlocked, will be way cheaper to get a local SIM vs spending $10 a day. I called att and they unlocked my phone remotely.

There's a new place off Washington, Galway Hooker Irish Pub that I've heard is a good spot to watch. Otherwise Bar Munich in midtown or Firkin Phoenix.

I'm a fan of the salsa at Guadalajara. Lots of cumin. Green salsa at original Ninfas is good too.

Last year I had watched the game at the Sherlock's right off 75. Always had a blast, met friendly people. Almost always had ridiculously great beer specials. They set up the back area to show it on a projection screen.

Who are they playing next weekend? I'm waiting for the CyFalls game. It'll be good to have high school football return.

Thanks. I checked last night and all it had was info on the license plates and the full schedule, nothing about watching party.
