You are creating a source-safe restaurant research batch for BestCalgaryRestaurants.com, a Calgary restaurant discovery platform.

Research 30 real Calgary restaurants max. This must be useful enough to publish without fake data.

Focus:
Calgary Suburban Family, Mall, and Shopping-Area Dining

Scope:
- NW suburbs
- SW suburbs
- SE suburbs
- mall restaurants
- shopping-area lunch
- family dinner
- kids menus
- casual chains with sourceable Calgary locations

Source rules:
- Use only official restaurant websites, official menu pages, official reservation/order pages, restaurant-owned social/profile links, Tourism Calgary listings, mall/airport/hotel directory pages, or reliable public business/profile pages.
- Do not copy review text, menu descriptions, photos, or restaurant marketing copy.
- Do not invent ratings, hours, prices, dishes, patio status, happy hour, dietary options, kid-friendliness, accessibility, private dining, delivery, takeout, parking, or awards.
- Do not use unsupported claims like "best", "#1", "must-order", "award-winning", or "most loved".
- If a field is not clearly supported by a source, leave it blank.
- If the restaurant is real but the data is thin, include it only if name, address/neighbourhood, website or source URL, cuisine, and an original factual summary can be supported.

Formatting rules:
- Use lowercase kebab-case slugs.
- Use pipe-separated values for multi-value fields.
- status should be verified only when the restaurant is real and has enough source-backed facts for a public profile.
- description_original must be original, factual, and 1-2 sentences.
- description_original must not closely paraphrase restaurant marketing copy.
- hours_summary must end with: Always confirm before visiting.
- Leave unknown fields blank.
- Do not include aggregate ratings.
- Do not include copied customer reviews.
- Do not include a restaurant if source data is too thin.
- last_verified_at must be today's date in YYYY-MM-DD.
- data_confidence_level must be low, medium, or high.
- source_urls must be absolute URLs separated by pipes.
- source_notes must explain exactly which fields the sources support.

- Mall or attraction context can support usefulness, but kids-menu and feature claims still need source proof.
- For multi-location restaurants, create location-specific rows when possible.

Workflow

What to send back

Research output

Send restaurant rows and separate source logs.

Profile batches should include stable restaurant facts. Volatile claims like patios, happy hour, late-night, dietary options, private dining, kid-friendly details, and dish proof should arrive as feature logs or source logs so they can be reviewed before becoming public filters.
