Summer's Negroni

August 5th was a beautiful day in Toronto; a perfect summer day to visit La Société to check out their new Le Cocktail menu. The restaurant would be introducing five new cocktails, the creations of sommelier, cocktail designer, and mixologist Kyle Stefanato.

Based on our experience at the last U-Feast dinner we attended at Böehmer, we had a lot to look to forward for the next Chef Concert Series dinner on July 9th. This time it would be Italian Michelin Star Chef Cristina Bowerman helming the kitchen, with chef and TV personality Christine Cushing taking emcee duties.

On Wednesday evening, July 8th, the Hennessy Time Barrel arrived to LS Bistro (La Société) on Bloor Street as part of the cognac brand’s 250th anniversary.

Only until July 14th, 2015 you can send your message to the future 50 years from now.

Panorama revised: The One Eighty on the 51st Floor

The scenic Panorama Lounge on the 51st floor of the Manulife Centre has been a long-time highly sought after destination in Toronto for event planners and celebratory occasions.

Still under the same ownership at Eatertainment headed by Sebastien Centner, the destination now has a focus as a Los Angeles inspired dining experience with influences from Centner’s travels while also growing it’s image as an upscale cocktail lounge.

As Toronto’s luxurious and chic Yorkville neighbourhood, Hazelton Hotel’s ONE Restaurant stands as one of the dining centrepieces of it all under the direction of one of Toronto’s most renowned chefs and restaurateurs, Mark McEwan.

Now enter McEwan’s young talent who has been there since day one of ONE Restaurant: Chef Darby Piquette has been making waves in the McEwan Group since he took on the role of Chef de Cuisine with his first undertaking being the most recent Winterlicious 2015…

What is old is new again and conceptualized in the re-invention of Toronto’s beloved former Panorama Lounge on the 51st floor of Manulife Centre. Add a mixture of elegance, glamour, luxury, and hospitality to complement. The design, touches and finishes are reminiscent of the golden age of the 1920’s with a modern Los Angeles inspired flair; warm, earthy wood textures against palettes of cooler tones, accentuated by a glossy white ceiling.
