...so anyway.
Well! Isn't this thread apropos!!?! This seems like a good place to post this.
Blues fan here in peace.
I came to your board to ask about things to do in Edmonton. I am flying there on Wednesday and will be in Edmonton itself for two days. One day in Grande Prairie (First Nation function) and one day touring Jasper National Park.
I won't have boat loads of time, so I will keep this focused.
1. What is the most awesome vegetarian restaurant in Edmonton?
2. What is your coolest (quirkiest) museum/attraction?
1) Padmanati's North of downtown. Lots of excellent analogs many meat eaters are fooled eating here.
Nourish - just north of Whyte Ave. Excellent quality and very healthy. Pretty new-age beatnik type atmosphere.
If you need something lighter I highly recommend Earth's General Store deli. They make fantastic soup and sandwiches. I think only the downtown location has a deli. It's on 10 4 Street North of Jasper Ave.
2) Fort Edmonton Park - make sure and check out the old theatre while you're there you have to see the show.
Muttart Conservatory especially if you enjoy nature.
Jurassic Forest - not sure they may not be opened for the season yet. It's animitronic dinosaurs it's pretty well done.
West Edmonton Mall Water Park + the mall itself.
