Why are my Sunday’s so fantastic? Because we have football Sunday’s! JAM!

Every Sunday, Fiance and I head over to my parents house where we do laundry, eat lots of food, and watch 5 different channels full of football. The best is when rival teams play and everyone gets out their team poncho and trash talks the opponent. Poor Fiance loves the Seahawks – he takes the brunt of the trash talking.

The end of football season usually sucks. We tend to just sit there and stare at each other. Nectar Desserts and my favourite server in the whole world have come to our rescue.  They have Sunday Tea Parties. Oh yes family, you read that right, we’re going to start having Tea Parties when football season is over.

For $30/person you can go and have tea, bon bons, macrons, mini pavlovas and so much more. They even have GF scones and house made preserves. We are so making reservations and they are all going to LOVE IT.

Since I wont be able to make it until the end of the season, I highly recommend that you guys go and try it and then tell me how wonderful it is. The more positive things I can tell the family about it, the more likely they are to come with me!

Please mention when you make a reservation that you are a celiac, it will help them make sure that they have the scones etc that you will want. And please tell them that Scrumptious (aka Keegan) is the server of your dreams. He really is that fantastic and I think his boss needs to know it!

Thanks for the heads up Scrumptious! And happy tea partying to you all.

Why?

Because a great place deserves a little  more attention.

To steal from a line from a review written about Nectar Desserts – Nectar Desserts is Raising the Chocolate Bar.

Actually, it doesn’t just raise the Chocolate Bar – it takes the Chocolate Bar out back, beats it with a stick and asks it who’s boss!

When going head to head with other dessert bars in Calgary, Nectar Desserts obliterates the competition.

Why?

Because they have class, style, service, and amazing GF options. You can eat in, you can take out, you can do both in the same night.

The staff is so knowledgeable and helpful. They know what they are talking about and that only helps instill a sense of trust and security when ordering and eating. My notable favourite is a server that I will call “Scrumptious”. I choose to call him that for a number of reasons: 1. I don’t like to publish names. 2. He’s the cutesiest morsel of awesome – it’s okay Fiance, I think you’re a cute morsel of awesome as well. 3. His recommendation from the menu was so scrumptious that I had to hold back my desire to squeal with excitement.

No matter who you’re server is, I can guarantee that you will be impressed. They all know their stuff and they all truly care about your health. Going to Nectar is like a hug for your stomach, and a hug for your soul.

My recommendations are:

• Nectar Macarons
• Pavlova
• GF Chocolate Cake
• Fiance loves the: Chocolate Experience.

**Please remember to mention your dietary restrictions. They will need to modify the desserts slightly to accomodate you. They won’t mind, and they will take you very seriously; so feel free to just sit down and ask them what they recommend today for a celiac in need of dessert**

That’s what they make at Nectar Desserts in Inglewood. And then they sprinkle it with sparkles and sunshine.

So only a few days ago I blogged about going out for dessert with the girls; and in that blog I may have mentioned how difficult it is to find amazing GF dessert and how I was maybe feeling cheated and how maybe I hated the universe. Well the universe answered with Nectar Desserts. Not only does Nectar provide a large array of gourmet desserts to the gluten eater, but they have a very knowledgeable staff that know what it means to be us. Thus, they have found a way to make GF desserts that non-gluten eaters will die for.

Oh and let me tell you about the wait staff – they rock my world. Young, knowledgeable, social, honest and trendy. What more could you want?! If When you go, look for a young cutie with dark hair and tattoo’s. Not only is he a Celiac willing to help, but he’s a total cutie and will simply make your night light up with his charm. PLUS, you have to ask him for his tempura batter recipe; it’s so good. And it’s totally idiot proof – even I could do it.

Okay people GO TO NECTAR. Bring a date, impress the daylights out them and let Nectar impress the daylights out of your deprived taste buds.

Oh and as a side note: they make flourless wedding cakes. So if you or anyone you know is getting married, think of Nectar. Better yet, if you’re getting married and your younger sister, who happens to be the maid of honor is blogging about GF wedding cakes, you may choose to take a look at them ~hint hint nudge nudge~
