Despite its name, the restaurant neither invented the Caesar salad nor the Caesar cocktail, but they serve up a mean version of both. The salad is theatrically prepared tableside while the cocktail is a Calgary-invented melange of Clamato juice, Worcestershire sauce and vodka or gin. Best drunk as a hair-of-the-dog hangover cure, but delicious any time of day.

Music Mile
Often referred to as “Nashville North”, Calgary’s lively music scene has been ramping up in recent years. There’s no better way to take it in than a crawl down the Music Mile, a stretch of live music venues starting from the Blues Can – a rollicking blues bar housed inside of a cavernous metal shack – to the horizon-dominating National Music Centre, a world-class piece of architecture that is home toCanada’s Music Hall of Fame.
Cap it all off with a drink at the King Eddy, a former railway hotel built in 1905 that’s seen many lives: once as a legendary blues bar hosting the likes of Buddy Guy, then low-rent housing and finally disassembled and rebuilt brick by brick by the National Music Centre as a hub for gigging musicians. With not much more than a spotlight and a microphone, the intimate stage lends itself to seriously raw performances.
