Established in 1980, the Calgary Sweet house is one of the first Indian Sweet Houses in Alberta.
The Calgary Sweet House is famous world-wide for its Mithai (Sweets). They make all sweets at their store from only the choicest ingredients. Their Gulab Jamun, Jilabi, Koya Burfi, Milk Cake and Patissa are second to none. In addition to sweets they make a wide range of Namkeen (spicy snacks) like Chevrah, Sev, and Ghatiya. Most of their products are made from "Chana Flour" (Chick Pea Flour). Chana flour is very nutritous and is a good alternative for people who have allergies to gluten (wheat flour). For vegetarians, they have a variety of peas and beans as a nutritious snack. Calgary Sweet House invites you to try their renowned Butter Chicken, tasteful Samosa, full-bodied Chole and Tandoori- baked Naan. Other favorites include Naan Kebab, Lamb Biriani, Puri Chole, Daal Makhni and Tandoori Chicken. Come and enjoy their simple, market atmosphere with no frills or fanfare. |

The epitome of the perfect little hole-in-the-wall restaurant, the Calgary Sweet House was a most excellent experience this evening. The small family-run business normally closes at 7, but they stayed open for us this evening and treated us to some first-rate Indian food. Seriously, folks... this was the BEST butter chicken I've ever tasted, and I've tasted a few butter chickens in my day. Beware, though... it isn't called "butter" chicken for nothing... mmmmmmmmm... butter....
Some folks loaded up on sweets to take home after... and some folks loaded up on a few more sweets.... mmmmmmmmmmm.... sweets... Thanks to all who came out and to Jorinda for giving me her leftovers. Mmmmmmmmm... leftovers... - Rhonda |
