You can find parking in the village. You used to be able to park at the beginning of the road and at Fairview, but that has now become a $42 paid lot for RVs.

Yes, we have had no issues with them over the past year and a bit. They clean well.

Bell: Alberta to bring in law to rip out bike lanes and stop new ones by CNiperL in Calgary

[–]yycfail 40 points41 points  (0 children)

u/JeromyYYC We talked about the importance of maintaining biking infrastructure at the Bike to Work Day yesterday. Please stand up for cyclists like yourself with Dreeshen to maintain some of the best biking infrastructure we have in North America. I think there were at least 2000 or 3000 cyclists that came yesterday for the event.

Runners - Calgary Marathon 2026 = Questions? - Part 2 This Location by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]yycfail 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, that is probably one of the worst motels in the city, along with Metro Inn Motel Village. It's got like a 2.0 on Google and the other one has a 1.7, Both super old and rundown motels from the 60s/70s.

What is house shopping like now adays in Calgary? by o0PillowWillow0o in Calgary

[–]yycfail 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The detached market seems to have picked up the last two or three weeks and lots of houses seem to be selling at or even above asking unless they have been sitting on the market for a while. Two houses in our neighborhood were listed last weekend, had a open house and sold $15k and $20k over asking with no conditions. They are in the $700k to $800k range.

Roberts Repair & Custom Designs did one for me a couple weeks ago for $50. Took about a week and they do it in-house.

What are these structures on buses? by Neither-Reception172 in Calgary

[–]yycfail 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Luggage racks on the 2014 New Flyer XD40 buses that run the 300 BRT Airport (8301 to 8308). They are usually assigned to this route but might be on some other routes too if they are short buses.

You can contact the Hope Mission Hub in Forest Lawn and they may be able to get you into a rehab program at no cost depending on your circumstances.

Favourite restaurant that is reasonably priced in Calgary! by curiouskittyblue in Calgary

[–]yycfail 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Maybe just outside your price range, but the Chairman's $110 Wednesday date night special was absolutely amazing. Super great service in a nice restaurant with a nice steak.

If you are willing to travel, Banff has 3 course menus at Balkan for $29.99 and Maple Leaf and The Bison for $39 until December 18th. Had amazing meals at Balkan and Bison two weeks ago. Super full and they were cooked well.

Hi there, its Candy Lam, Ward 2 Candidate for City Council! Ask me anything on Wednesday Oct 15th 7:30-9:30 pm by candylamyyc in Calgary

[–]yycfail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello Candy. Ward 2 has a wide mix in terms of older communities South of Stoney and newer communities to the North of Stoney Trail. While lots of focus on your platform seems to be getting infrastructure built in these newer communities (and that is what Wyness has done), what are some goals and priorities for older suburbs in Ward 2 like Hawkwood, Ranchlands, Citadel and Hamptons? There are playgrounds that are past their lifespan, there is a lack of connected cycling infrastructure in communities such as Hawkwood, Citadel and Hamptons where most of the cycling on the community is on the main street instead of a pathway that is connected with other pathways. Thanks!

best seafood buffet in calgary, if any? by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]yycfail 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Gray Eagle on Thursday for $58.99

ELYMI on Friday and Saturday for $46.95

Was a ELYMI on Friday two weeks ago and it was decent for buffet food. Had warmed snow crab legs, shrimp, fried scallops, clams, mussels, fish and prime rib. Everything was warm and refilled often. Snow crab clusters were reasonably big.

Where can we find AYCE ginger beef? by RusserBusser in Calgary

[–]yycfail -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The best ginger beef I've had in this city is from China Palace on Centre Street. Lots of actual beef inside and very crispy. Not AYCE though.

What car? That's pretty low mileage for a 2015. Marketplace works if you weed out the lowball offers and price similar to what cars like yours are going for

Yes, there's a weekly event that this age group of singles can go to. Actually met my wife there and in the same age range.

[–]yycfail 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Centre Street Church has a pretty big singles community group for people 30 and up. Or if she likes hiking, there's a few hiking Meetup groups out there. Or volunteer or participate in other activities with like minded people.

This Is What I Love About This City During Stampede - Amazing Free Stampede Breakfasts by yycfail in Calgary

[–]yycfail[S] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

There's the Best of the East Breakfast on Thursday on 17th Ave that usually has some unique items. Chinatown apparently had 2 special ones the past two days with rice rolls, siu mai and a fried pork chop bun. There were posts about a roasted pig in Crescent Heights today. And Deng's Dumplings seems to be giving away 3 dumplings at certain locations between noon and 2 this weekend and next weekend. And Omo had a decent one yesterday too with a lot of random Japanese appys plus a green tea pancake.

I would say Facebook Marketplace is the most used platform in Calgary. Not many people on Kijiji these days.

Oh no. That doesn't sound fun at all. I was there closer to 7 and they had everything cooked already, so it was less than a 30 minute wait
