Calcutta Cricket Club recently moved into a new restaurant space in Victoria Park. If that weren’t enough reason to check it out, the fact that dishes like this lamb biryani await should convince you. Baked “dum” style with a puff pastry lid, this dish has a major wow factor when you cut into it. It also comes with a lasooni raita.

Located inside Doughlicious, Dough Boy is one of Calgary’s newest spots for warm, delicious doughnuts. Stop in on a Friday or Saturday to get doughnut balls covered in toppings like dark chocolate and crushed pistachio, matcha sauce with matcha powder sprinkle or a combo of honey, cinnamon and crushed walnuts.

French toast isn’t just for breakfast anymore. At the newly opened Francine’s in downtown Calgary, it’s the perfect sweet bite to finish off your meal of French fare. Soaked in custard and roasted in sugar, Francine’s French toast takes the decadence even further with honey caramel, honey ice cream and aged Comté cheese on top.
