Edmonton places to find perfect perogies

Perogies originate from Eastern Europe and you’ll find them as a cuisine staple in most Slavic countries, including Poland, Ukraine, Hungary, Czech Republic, Slovakia and Russia. These little bundles of dough are boiled before being baked or fried with other accoutrements. Finally, they are topped with bacon and sour cream. Regardless of the variety you choose, you’ll fall in love with this comfort food.

These Jerks also serve up a perogy appy, with $1 from each order going towards St. Michael’s Facilities. Guess they’re not such jerks, after all.

Some like it hot: Best hot chocolate spots

On a cold, snowy Edmonton night, nothing says lovin’ like a cup of hot chocolate. It’s no surprise this drink was originally dubbed the “elixir of the gods.” Regardless of the variety you select, or whether you opt for the simplest hot chocolate on the menu, all I can say is ... don’t forget the marshmallows.

A slice of heaven: Perfect pie places
