Epcor wants us to know that Edmonton’s award-winning water is safe and tastes good. They have recruited several local restaurants who pour tap water to take part in the Glass of the Sask program (you may have seen is at K Days too). Edmonton’s drinking water comes from the Rockies via the North Saskatchewan River. The final product is treated for up to 12 hours (clarified, filtered and disinfected) at water treatment plants before being delivered to over one million taps in Edmonton and surrounding communities. Find Glass of the Sask at the District Café, Dogpatch, Fox Burger Bar, The Lingnan, Padmanadi, Partake, Strathcona Spirits Distillery, the Sugarbowl and the Urban Diner.
