The words “summer” and “feast” stand on their own to be magnificent things to look forward to, but when combined they truly knock it out of the park. Summer Feast does just that. Thirteen of Calgary’s best restaurants have joined forces to offer prix fixe lunches and dinners which range from $15 to $35. It’s a chance to get out to enjoy the rest of your summer while getting a taste for a wide range of restaurants.

1. Brown butter and olive oil ice cream sandwiches from Bridgette Bar‘s $25 and $35 lunch and dinner prix fixe menus.
