| - Hey Yelpers!
On September 19 of this year, we had the chance to win the bar's first ever online contest for a free dinner worth $50 for two through Instagram. We were lucky enough to get the said prize and for the two of us foodies, we definitely enjoyed our food and beer experience. We were greeted and welcomed right away by two adorable hostesses and courteously led to our reserved seats (we felt like VIPs). I was completely stunned with the crafts beer selection in the bar AND I'm really proud that they are fully supporting our local beer industry here in Ontario! One of the managers (Kayla/Shaela) was nice enough to introduce and welcome us to the restaurant that night. My boyfriend and I both selected the "Beer Flight" which offers flight of four different beers in five ounce glasses. Beer lovers or beer newbies will surely have fun picking their drinks as there are one hundred and twenty beers to choose from! My boyfriend was overwhelmed and shocked to see how much beers there were serving and needed extra time to choose his flight(I did my beer research before coming in the restaurant so I had my order up and going). My beer preference would be for the light lagers or citrusy, orange beers. I picked the Weiss beer- belgian wheat beer, Hop cider- dry hopped cider, and two randoms. All of them taste amazing! I am a sucker for Belgian wheat beers since I tried Shock Top and Hoegaarden. The Weiss beer was perfect as I was able to satisfy my cravings for the orange peel taste in a beer. Okay, so moving onto food- we chose to have the Lumpia spring rolls, Blue cheese fries, Cuban stack, and Mushroom burger. I was happy and giddy to see Lumpia in their bar menu as it is a Filipino appetizer present in a Western menu bar. I would recommend the said spring rolls as the recipe sticked with the traditional Filipino way of cooking (approved by my Filipino taste) , also served with the classic pairing of banana ketchup, although the banana ketchup tasted different from the traditional one. The Blue cheese fries was definitely the food of the night as the serving size was huge and good for sharing with a food buddy. I think there were caramelized onion in the fries- I liked that because it added a bit of sweetness with the salty taste from the fries. I was already getting full when I was about to start my Cuban stack sandwich but I gave myself a little push to heighten my curiosity to give the sandwich a bite and decide whether I should go on with the instincts of my taste buds. The sandwich was indeed a hit for my tiny taste buds. They sliced the sandwich in half, so I found it to be big in serving too. I like the pork and capicolla meat plus the swiss cheese in it. Yum! My partner had the Mushroom burger and he devoured it in seven minutes! I had two bites and it was pretty up there too! The entrees were delicious, satisfying and both of us enjoyed the whole dinner:) The bar was busy on a Saturday night (Blue Jays night too) but the service was an A+ as the hostess always looked after us whether we needed something or not. I would recommend this dining spot as it is in the heart of the city and there are lots of seats to entertain each guests for either a casual or special dining experience. If you guys dont try at least one beer, then you suck. You would miss the wonders of this amazing craft restaurant! Thanks to the staff and chef who made my boyfriend and I's night a wonderful time! The free dinner fell on my birthday month too so it was really a surprise! i wish we took a photo with the manager but we got too tipsy and shy ahaha! We will definitely come back and try another beer flight next time:)
