Meat YEG - Edmonton Restaurants

As we travel all over to watch sporting events around the world, we are on a constant adventure to not only cross stadiums from our bucket list, but to indulge in the culture. That includes the unique food and eating at the top Edmonton restaurants that the city has to offer. Sports Travel is definitely Elite Sports Tours strong point, however we also have a ton of experience and knowledge of the top Edmonton restaurants and things to do when traveling to visit an unfamiliar city. Edmonton is a popular travel destination for hockey fans, as they are home to one of the best players in the NHL, Connor McDavid of the Edmonton Oilers. With a brand new arena built in 2016, Rogers Place is one of the newest hockey arenas in the NHL.  The Elite Sports Tours team traveled to Edmonton, Alberta to watch the Toronto Maple Leafs at Edmonton Oilers in some Saturday night hockey in Canada. But first we had to make a stop at Meat For Dinner - YEG - Located in Old Strathacona just on the other side of the North Saskatchewan River.

After successfully killing off a penalty in the extra frame, John Tavares potted the winner by beating Carey Price with a back-hand beauty after taking a slick feed from Mitch Marner, giving the Maple Leafs the 3-2 overtime win.
