The first level on the tray of savory indulgences were imaginative, delicious and nothing like anything I have had at other High Teas. The were touches of Morocco, India and spring. The scone level with delicious and and the clotted cream to die for. And do not skip the custard on the top level, if other people hadn't been in the room, I would have licked to glass. So yummy. The gal waiting on our table, who is also involved in the food preparation was great, very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. If you get a chance make a reservation and go for a drive out to High River. You won't be sorry.

As she was from the UK and speaks so highly of this exquisite experience, I was dying to go for an afternoon tea. Last week, we found out in Calgary Herald about Noble Tea House. It was situated in High River, Alberta, around 45 minutes from Calgary. We did not hesitate to drive there. Since there are limited seating, make sure you book in advance. Three tiered tea was fantastic, we ordered earl grey and English breakfast tea, the tea comprised of scones, clotted cream and jam, sandwiches, blackberry macaroons with balsamic filling,amaretti cookies and sugared grapes and trifles, mini pumpkin pies. The owner of the tea house was very accommodating, excellent customer service. Definitely going back and if you love to have an afternoon tea experience, please go and support this local small business.

Fortunately, there was a facility just across the street where I could have this taken care of. While paying for the service, I was politely greeted by a woman named Jan. "We're opening the Channel 19 Café tomorrow.", she said. I was told the types of food they would be serving and was shown a menu. She also mentioned that breakfast was available all day. The selections were both decent and appetizing. "I'd love to visit!", I responded, "But, unfortunately, I won't be here. As soon as my load is ready, I'll be heading back to the U.S. but I do wish you much success." Upon returning to Cargil, I learned that my load wasn't ready to go yet. So, I waited... and waited... and waited. I kept waiting until the next morning and upon inquiring about my load, was again told, as I was consistently the previous night, "No. The load is not ready yet.". It was about 6:30 in the morning so I decided to go have breakfast at the Channel 19 Café. The first thing I noticed was that the sign said they didn't open until 7:00 o'clock. However, the door was wide open so I walked in anyway. "Oh! It's John!", I heard Jan say from the other side of the room while I was being greeted with a warm smile and a hand shake by Jason, Linda and Joska. In spite of it not being 7am, Jan seated me and I was presented with a menu. I told them that I didn't mind waiting until 7 but things were ready to go ahead of schedule. I ordered eggs, bacon, potatoes and toast along with a glass of water. While I waited (and the wait wasn't long at all) Jan kept me company with polite conversation. I learned about some of the local happenings in Alberta like "The Stampede". An event which takes place in June and sounds like a Canadian version of "The Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo" down south in Texas complete with parades, chuck wagon races, country & western music, food and fun. There is even a picture on the far wall of Jan's husband Jack participating in the parade. It wasn't long when the bell rang letting Jan know my meal was ready. She brought it to me and I found a nice surprise in seeing a small stalk of grapes on the plate along with the other items I ordered. I love grapes. Channel 19 Café is located at 466 Avenue & 82nd in High River, AB in the same building as the CDI Truck Wash. Their phone number is 403-652-4333. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great meal and to meet some of the nicest people in the entire world. The breakfast was delicious and while eating it, Jan and Jason frequently checked on me (each time addressing me by name) to ensure everything was okay and to see if I was enjoying the meal he had prepared. I was doing great, finished the meal and paid them with the Canadian currency I had. Also, since I was their first customer and, at least in the US, I notice businesses always post their first dollar on the wall, I left them an American $1 bill. Breaker One Nine, Good Buddy! For some of the best food in all of Canada, be sure to roll your rig to the Channel 19 Café. Tell 'em John sent you. You won't regret it!

Alert! Delicious donuts coming your way!…read more Check out the likes of these babies. My lovely friend and coworker Angie at Black Dog Ranch (check out her account for adorable dog photos) has a beautiful ranch south of the city and she led me to these donuts that are the talk of Black Diamond. Naturally I had to get my hands on some. Rules for ordering your Westwood Donuts: 1 They change up their flavours every week, so if a round appeals to you, jump on it! 2 You have to place your order on Wednesday before they sell out. Don't press the snooze on this. 3 There's only a short window on Saturday for pick-up (12-3PM on Saturdays). Once you've completed the steps above, you're on your way to donut heaven. RATING: 9/10 - Westwood: Donuts The dough is everything you want it to be--soft, fluffy and fresh. It makes a great base for the various donut creations. I had the pleasure of trying these flavours: Chocolate Fudge Filled: With rich chocolate custard and coated in cinnamon sugar. You can't go wrong here. Banana Cream Pie: This tasted exactly like it sounds. Fragrant banana custard with whip and bananas on top. If you did a blind taste test, it would be hard to differentiate this from the real pie. Nerds Glaze: Imagine a blue raspberry starburst. This one was sweet, tropical and sour. Lemon Glaze: Pound cake in donut form. I adored the natural lemon flavour! The Banana Cream Pie stole my heart, but they were all worth writing home about. I can't wait to have an excuse to try these glorious donuts again and check out Westwood's food and patio. Black Diamond here I come!

This place was exactly what we hoped to find for lunch on our first day in Cochrane. We sat on the back porch overlooking the busy road with lots of excavating going on across the street but it added to the experience. Our server was incredibly efficient and made the meal even better. We ordered the pulled pork sandwich with fries and the honey garlic wings with onion rings. The guys ordered beers of choice and we girls had club soda with lime - a $3.00 charge. Some places it's free. The food was so much we didn't finish even though we split a meal. Outside there is a rock garden where you are encouraged to take one and leave it somewhere else to bless someone. I will take mine home to FL. So glad we came here!
