Surprise! What a delicious and fun way to celebrat Surprise! What a delicious and fun way to celebrate a special occasion! Le Petit Chef has found a home in Calgary at The Dorian, Autograph Collection. Four tiny chefs used all their creative skills to make our dining experience exciting. We were delighted with each tiny chef and their course offerings and especially the sweet finish! So much fun!
Hyatt Regency Calgary Part II. I found the perfect Hyatt Regency Calgary Part II. I found the perfect place to celebrate Wallace's birthday - Stillwater Spa at Hyatt Regency Calgary. They carry the Barbour line and products by Bioeffect from Iceland. We had amazing massages, mine was with Liz, the Spa supervisor who has a magic touch. Like many folks at Hyatt, she has been with them for over 20 years. One of the best spa experiences we've had anywhere.
As guests of the hotel, we had access to the pool with a view of the Calgary Tower and the new upgrades to the Glenbow Museum.
Afterwards, we had a celebratory lunch at the Spa Cafe catered by Thomsons Kitchen and Bar. Highly recommend this as a great way to celebrate a special day. @hyattregencycalgary ##luxuryhotels #yychotels @hyatt_hotels_and_resorts @thomsonskitchenbar @stillwaterspacalgary
