Happy thursday,
There's talk about this great restaurant...

A powerful culinary movement is reshaping Edmonton’s dining scene as Indigenous chefs reclaim and celebrate their ancestral foodways.
This is more than a trend; it’s a renaissance of flavor, heritage, and storytelling rooted deep in Alberta’s soil.

Celebrated figures such as Shane Chartrand and grassroots entrepreneurs like Curtis Cardinal of Teepee Treats are also bringing national attention to the richness of Indigenous ingredients.
