Thanks to Calgary’s talented community of artists, illustrators, photographers, food stylists and graphic designers, we’ve had some pretty great covers over the last five years.
We assembled the team and asked everyone what their top five favourite covers in five years were.
Here’s our top five favourites.

THE OG

Holiday 2019
Our publisher, Debbie Lambert, has a soft spot for the cupcake on our first-ever cover. Pulled from an existing library of photos (we were in a bit of a hurry to get this issue out the door), our design team added a celebratory sparkler and Savour Calgary was born.
CHEESE PULL

Early Spring 2022
Who doesn’t love a good cheese pull? Shot by Stephen Burchill, this epic cheese pull is brought to you by the French onion soup at Yellow Door Bistro at Hotel Arts.
BOUQUET

Early Spring 2023
When one hears the word bouquet, they automatically think flowers. Not this time. Shot by Mitch Kern, this gorgeous mushroom bouquet was dreamed up, created and modeled by Janine Aube of Red Fox Fungi.
SPICY CHILI

Late Spring 2023
Shot by Dana Pugh, this spicy cover features the photographer’s daughter and a beautiful red chili pepper to illustrate the issue’s salsa feature.
THE FISH

Late Spring 2024
Shot by Jarret Twoyoungmen, this cover features chef Shane Chartrand with his about-to-be-seared rainbow trout for that issue’s “Master Class.”
