BISTRO PRAHA
What’s old eventually becomes classic — and what’s classic is undoubtedly cool. Bistro Praha is very cool, and
my Gen Z brain can hardly compre- hend the history that goes into a place like this. I’m flabbergasted. From the vintage green velvet and carved wooden furniture to the brass-framed photos
of the European countryside, Bistro Praha oozes antique continental couture (think The Grand Budapest Hotel, but green instead of pink). The cordon-bleu schnitzel brings out a sweetness in my Czech Pilsner that just makes sense. But many of you already know this about Bistro Praha — I’m just a happy newcomer to this long-held Edmonton tradition. —L.N.

COLISEUM STEAK & PIZZA
There’s a trend on the internet these days where users post scenes like these — little artifacts from a bygone era lost to time — accompanied by grainy filters and music designed to make you yearn for the lost days of childhood. If there’s one Edmonton landmark that deserves to be featured in that trend, it’s Coliseum Steak & Pizza.
The decor hasn’t changed much
since 1976, and neither has the menu (flame-grilled steaks, charbroiled ribs, homemade pizzas and foil-wrapped baked potatoes accompanied by a tray of fixings are still the staples). But that’s part of its appeal. After so many years, Coliseum has become not just a restau- rant, but a feeling — and for many people, that’s the feeling of coming home. —J.C.
