Food place recommendations for #icca2026:
Deville - good coffee not too far from campus.
Sugarbowl - about a 10 min walk from the main hotel and a good range of food. Bison chili was good.
The Colombian - good coffee and killer sandwich.
Bistro Praha - yummy Czech food and a solid choice downtown.
Trying to think of all the food I should try and what places to avoid. Is it chipotle that people report food poisoning from? Is chick-fil-a the homophobic one? Canadians - what should I get and what should I avoid?
Yes I’ve had poutine and could just eat this all week tbh. #icca2026
Isn’t this a name for one of the circles of hell? Just above the Thoughts and Prayers Foyer.
I feel like a new job for me could be “advance team” for conferences and it’s literally just trying coffee and food to recommend places.
Is there an hdr networking group that I could encourage my PhD student to head along to at #icca2026
More good coffee for #icca2026. I went to the Colombian which apparently has a few stores around. They have a few specials and pour overs too.
Question mark
Looking for Canadian gifts for my kids - ages 7-13. I have enough bag space for books, so please recommend your favourite Alberta or Canada books and graphic novels!
