I live in Calgary but I've never heard of any of these places in my life. Thank you for making me realize I never get out of the house. I'll definitely visit these places soon!
It has been said that at least once in a lifetime we should be a tourist in our own city. This highlights to me that I need to check out the food in my country New Zealand.
I've lived in Calgary my whole life and have never heard of this event. Mind blown. You also took some really great pics of the city! Thanks for coming over!
@@Tangerined Good to know. "All you can eat without taking time to enjoy it" is more like it. Too bad - it's a fun idea. I can't eat as much and as fast as Mike can.
I appreciate you filming this during a 3-hr. period of time and trying to eat as much as you can and still enjoying yourself while filming, not an easy task to do. Also, the descriptions of everything you ate were very helpful to any foodie or chef looking for any new ideas. Anyone watching this, get out and help support your local food festivals when they happen, support your Mom & Pop Ethnic Restaurants and also your local Farmer's Markets and International food stores.
Anyone that comes to Calgary needs to try the VEITNAMESE FOOD !!! Especially the banh mi. We have tons of unique veitnamese dishes like goat soup, hot pot..
I live in Calgary and have always wanted to go to beast and brewery but have not gone yet, thanks for the wonderful showcase ! Pure is my favorite especially those little sesame meats I go just for those ! So packed with flavour !
Cool that you came up here to Calgary. I have been to Calgary many times, but I have never been to that festival. Edmonton doesn't have that, but we do have many other festivals. That food looks so good. Cheers! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️🇨🇦

Mike, you gotta come to Edmonton for Heritage Fest! It’s a festival in August that celebrates world cultures but the star is the food! Every ethnicity has its own food on offer.
@@hayleymah4325 This unique event has been going on since 2012 hosted in Calgary, Vancouver and Vancouver Island but city officials don't seem to be interested promoting it that's why we don't see it on the news or TV whatsoever. If you sign up for Brewery & Beast newsletter you will get all the updated info.
If you're still in town or ever come back I'm a big fan and I'd love to show you around different places to eat! There's some good hole in the wall restaurants and great jewels in Calgary you gotta try!
Hi Mike! I follow and am a subscriber of your Strictly Dumpling channel. I am glad you were able to come to Calgary. I was kind of hoping you'd come visit the city as I've seen you go to Vancouver and Toronto here in Canada. I hope you can come back again and see the other Filipino restaurants here.
@@dealhunter2317 beef quality is way better in Alberta. Maybe high end pho restaurants in Vietnam are better but average pho in Vietnam doesn’t have good quality and quantity of beef
Mikey! I hope you enjoyed our city!! Never thought you would come to Calgary lol We've got a great food scene here, if you ever find yourself here again there's loads more to eat!
Thanks for sharing Mikey!!! Love your attitude, reviews and the way you present your food.... like a man should. 10/10!!! Greetings from Capetown South Africa 🇿🇦
Dang! He fit the whole piece in ONE BITE! He IS THEE MAN!! 😮 Everything is BITE SIZE TO HIM ALMOST!! LOL! YES, IM JEALOUS WATCHING THIS! I GOTTA STOP!! 😊
@@sethg1333 there's a wee place by me, seats maybe 40+, and it's super cl an, family run. It's awesome....yummy broth...just saying that's there's so many that saying one is the best is.....
Ive lived here all my life (more or less) and have yet to go to the meat festival. It looks amazing, but my knees just cry at the thought of being on them for several hours. i will have to invest in one of those folding chairs someday we have some amazing food here!
wow what a place to eat... just 18 -- 25 Canadian dollars for one entry. U could get the same stuff in Japan for 5-10 dollars. Thank you for letting me know I would never want to go to CA for food.

Same here! But I just looked it up and its $140 dollars and the event only lasts 3 hours... Seems expensive.

@@TangerinedHe said you get 5 drink tickets too. That alone is about $50 value.
I've lived in Calgary for 45 years... I've never heard of this before. Obviously, their marketing is phenomenal. lol
That looked impressive to try so many different items! Thanks for coming to Canada Mike!
Wow I live here 35 yrs …never heard of it… welcome to Calgary

Welcome to Canada , we have fantastic food from all over the world
Mike is a national treasure and we love you.
Been watching you for years, its so surreal to see you on 17th ave haha so many late nights there
First of all I am super happy you enjoyed the city, and somehow as someone born and raised you showed me all new things to try!

Welcome to Alberta! You should come back to check out Calgary Stampede and Edmonton Heritage Festival! I hope you enjoyed your visit!
Steers & Queers at the stampede
Mike's in his happy place for sure!!!
And I am living vicariously through his enjoyment.
Lived in Calgary my whole life. I always thought our city was so borning with no great unique choices. Ty for showing me different.
Welcome! Calgary has so many delicious and diverse food. Very proud of that!
Enjoy!
Cool that you came up here to Calgary. I have been to Calgary many times, but I have never been to that festival. Edmonton doesn't have that, but we do have many other festivals. That food looks so good. Cheers! 👍🏻👍🏻✌️🇨🇦
I live in Calgary, and hands down the Pho from 'Pure Street Food' is probably the best in town.
I agree. Donairs from My donair and Pho from pure street
Short rib pho there is out of this world.
@@Shazam999 it's like going to the dog meat festival in China 😂
Better than Mekong?
Everytime I'm in Calgary and want some late night Pho, I go to night owl. It's amazing. They are open until like 230-3am

Most definatley, love the bison sliders that the natives offer, mmmmmm, as well as the Jamaican Jerk.
Could just go to stampede and skip “heritage days”
@@steveshideler1333 why? Trying something new, in different cities is what this channel is all about.
really happy to see my city being visited by big youtubers, its a really great place to live born and raised here
Hiya fellow Calgarian!
Hey Mike welcome to Canada, New Brunswick says hi👋hope you have a great time.🇨🇦
So glad you came to my city!! I am glad you enjoyed yourself👍🏼👍🏼
Cool that you came here and thanks for the local food tips..I previously knew about that biryani place - its was a hidden gem!
oh sure,I left calgary in 1981 and now I see they have this..could have toughed it out for 43 yrs I guess.
Welcome to Calgary. If I knew you were coming for that event I would have gone just to say hi. 😂
Same also why did I not hear about this festival?

Yahoo!! There is definitely a lot of good food here (not just meat). I hope you get a chance to come back and head up to Banff too! 🤠
Looks like a lot of yummy fun! Love the shirt too!
I live in Calgary and I love the diversity of food we have ❤😊
Try the dog meat
Welcome to Canada ! 🇨🇦
You should try the Vancouver and Victoria events as well. They showcase the local restaurants usually. I usually go to the Vancouver ones.
Alumni is so good.
The way this guy eat on his trips, he must have a hell of a healthcare plan.
Did I see that right? At 24:10, the bowl of noodles cost $15!? Oooohh Wwweeee, thats expensive for a bowl of noodles!! 😡
Glad you enjoyed my hometown Calgary. Awesome place to live and eat!
Welcome (and farewell) from Alberta, Mikey!
"Sweet creamy sauce on top" that'd be the Donair sauce.
I live there. How did I miss this 🤦🏼♀️
Shout out to Pure Street Foods Noodle Bar! One of my favorite spots!
Cool festival. Unfortunately $200 to $350 CAD per person is a bit too pricey for me.
@@ResinAlchemist2024 WHAT
200-350????? I'm 100% sure there's probably a better Brazilian/Texas unlimited BBQ buffet for cheaper in town
Whoa!: THAT is VERY EXPENSIVE FOR FESTIVAL FOOD! 😮
Nice T-Shirt! I have one too!! Great taste in clothing too!! LOL!! 😮 ❤
Broooooo next time you come let’s go fishing the bow river !!
I think some Pho restaurants in Edmonton and Calgary are even better than Vietnam
Lol there is no good pho restaurants in Edmonton or Calgary not decent one is co do hue
Lmao at better than Vietnam haha
@@dealhunter2317 beef quality is way better in Alberta. Maybe high end pho restaurants in Vietnam are better but average pho in Vietnam doesn’t have good quality and quantity of beef
Happy eating, Mike. 😋😁
Everything looks delicious
the food looks amazing there! wow and its very pretty
Nah look amazing dint taste that good haha ask people in Calgary or Edmonton
Not Caltown - it is Cowtown! Thanks for showcasing Alberta. As an Albertan myself, I will have to try this out.
I had a Vietnamese guy tell me once that the reason the pho is so good in Calgary is because of the water
I e been watching you for years and I had to hit the subscriber bottom again
I am so glad to call Calgary my home
That's my type of place..I hit all the brew fests and there is always fire foods..looked like a good time..cheers
I'm glad you came this far in Alberta. ❤
Mikey! I hope you enjoyed our city!! Never thought you would come to Calgary lol
We've got a great food scene here, if you ever find yourself here again there's loads more to eat!
Weightlifter paradise
Crazy seeing my city like this lol
Love the Asian food scene in Calgary. I find it a bit cheaper but just as good as Vancouver.
Dang, you were right beside Banana Leaf, the best Malaysian place in Calgary. You should’ve went there.
Hey mikey, im from calgary! Didn't get the chance to meet you!
Carnitas tacos are #1
Ps good call on alumni!!
On the brisket with sourdough chili crunch station did I hear a little "chee-hoo" in the background? Get some Hawai'i locals up in Calgary??
Dude gained a kilo of muscle at the gym the next day from all that protein!
