We found the BEST BURGERS in Calgary!

Published 2023-09-28
The "Lilosophy" of Lil Empire is simple: treat other beings well.

They put layers of goodness into their burgers, right back to how the cows are raised.

We sat down to talk with Dave Sturies to learn how he transitioned from environmentalist to restauranteur, and how he's building a vision of a better world, starting with food and family.

    Another burger joint, perfect for Alberta.
  • Some production for Hardly any views. Carls jr was trash when I had it lastweek so as long as those burgers don’t cost 86,000.00$ then they should be pretty good. At carls jr I got a double jalapeño burger with the poppers and it was edible but the patty tasted like a dirty sunspun patty cooked on a dirty burger king broiler. Needless to say before my family left I had shit my pants and tried to flush them down the toilet then ran out naked with my 4 year old on my shoulders. Anyhow daddy Trudeau will make it better I’m sure it’s happened to him a few times too.
