downtown dining week until April 25
Get yourself downtown for delicious brunches, lunches and dinners for take-out (and patio dining, if applicable). It’s a good deal too—with menus ranging from $20-$65. The annual celebration of dining downtown looked like it might be shuttered when the province shut down indoor dining last week. But, the restos rallied and 48 different spots are taking part. Have lunch at Bite of Brazil abiteofbrazil.com (including their delicious brigadeiros); Filistix filistix.ca has a savoury lunch or dinner for two; the Marc themarc.ca offers seared duck breast as a main course. And Madison’s unionbankinn.com four course dinner is available this weekend only for take-out and in-room dining. Check out all the menus and make your resos at edmontondowntown.com.
