Calgary's Hidden Gem | Fresh Taste Corner

Attention northside foodies! If you're craving hearty, authentic Dongbei cuisine with generous portions and home-style flavors, this is your spot. As an honorary Northeasterner (by appetite), I couldn't resist ordering half the menu – and zero regrets. 🍽️ The Experience 📍 Atmosphere Free parking 🅿️ Spacious, bright dining area with large tables for groups No-frills, family-run vibe 💁 Service The owner and staff are warm and attentive – constant tea refills and check-ins They genuinely care if you’re enjoying the food (spoiler: you will) 🔥 MUST-ORDER DISHES 🍖 Braised Pork Knuckle ( Fall-off-the-bone tender, savory and rich – a carnivore’s dream. 🥓 Sweet & Sour Pork Crispy, sticky perfection. Balanced tangy-sweet glaze, freshly fried. 🍠 Candied Sweet Potato A caramelized delight – crispy sugar shell + soft, sweet potato inside. 🥟 Handmade Dumplings Four flavors: Celery pork, cabbage pork, pickled cabbage pork, and chive pork. Juicy, doughy perfection. 🥗 Cold Glass Noodle Salad Chewy, refreshing, and perfect for cutting through the richness of meat dishes. 🥩 Cumin Lamb Chops Freshly grilled, aromatic with cumin, zero gaminess – even non-offal eaters approved. 🌽 Cornbread Humble but essential. Slightly sweet, great for soaking up lamb juices. 🥘 Stir-Fried Pork Kidney Bold, wok-fired flavor – a must-try for adventurous eaters. 🥜 Peanut Soup Underrated dessert! Creamy, nutty, and not too sweet – the perfect finish. 📍 Practical Info 🍴 Fresh Taste Corner 3115 12 St NE #106, Calgary, AB T2E 8T3 💰 Price: ~$15-25 per dish (huge portions = great value) ⏰ Hours: Check Google (popular at peak times!) #CalgaryEats #YYCFood #DongbeiCuisine #ComfortFood #HiddenGem
