Chow Down

June 26, 2009

Calgarys First Street Southwest has been an eyesore for many months.
First, the desolate feel of the boarded up windows and then, the
never-ending construction.


But an ultra cool neighborhood is on the horizon with the opening of the
strips first café. From the upscale baristas at deVille
Coffee
in Art Central comes Chow Bazaar.

Like its sister locale, it serves plenty of handcrafted caffeine
beviesbut the new space is more late-night lounge than coffee house. The
evolving menu from neighbouring Saint Germain restaurant includes
sandwiches and soups like gazpacho and duck confit with rice (both $7)
and small plates like Dungeness crab mac n cheese for under $10.

It’s a beautiful day in the neighbourhood.

Chow Bazaar, 1302 First St. SW, Calgary, 403-233-0880.
