Located at the Crossroads Market, Primal Grounds enters YYC Hot Chocolate Fest this year with the Sponge Toffee Boss. This decadent drink gives the classic hot chocolate an indulgent, toffee-laden upgrade. The toffee-spiked hot chocolate comes topped with burnt sugar whipped cream, homemade sponge toffee sprinklings, chocolate sponge dust and a duo of caramel and chocolate sauces.
Just east of the downtown core, Crossroads features all the requisite Alberta farmers’ market staples from honey and frozen perogies to deli meats and hothouse veggies. A considerable portion of the market is also given over to flea market and boutique vendors hawking everything from antique toys and coins to used books and kids’ clothes. Indoor-outdoor market, Friday to Sunday, 9 am to 5 pm; boutique market, Saturday and Sunday, 9 am to 5 pm.
