Enjoy a cozy breakfast prepared at one of Edmonton’s favorite local eateries, the Blue Plate Diner. Try the ciabatta breakfast sandwich ($13) with sausage, egg, provolone, tomato and basil mayo or go with a more classic option like French toast or a traditional plate breakfast.

 

Don’t miss the glass pyramids at the Muttart Conservatory, a prominent feature on Edmonton’s cityscape. Three of the pyramids display the botanical gardens’ separate biomes, while the fourth is home to ever-changing creative exhibits. From fine art to live music to plant science, the conservatory combines it all. Tickets are only $12.50.

Delight your sweet tooth with a little shopping at Duchess Bake Shop. The monthly roundup of treats include French classics and Alberta favorites, with absolutely everything made in-house daily from scratch, with fresh and quality ingredients.

 

One of Canada’s favorite shopping streets, Whyte Avenue, is located in Alberta. Trendy and local boutiques sell art, gifts, books, clothing, music and more from the revitalized interior of the area’s historic buildings.

While shopping, pick up lunch or dinner at Café Mosaics, serving vegetarian and vegan food from eco-friendly farms. One of the seasonal fall favorites on the menu is the jalapeno pumpkin macaroni and cheese, topped with baked kale and breadcrumbs.

 

After dinner, Whyte Avenue is a great place to stick around for dancing, drinks or theater.

Many of these patients are attracted out of the United States to other countries for shorter wait times for medical procedures, as well as cheaper pricing. Many travel to Central America, Thailand or India, where prices for procedures such as angioplasty or dental implantation can be only a quarter of what you’ll pay in the United States.
