. "This is like the Toronto Temperance Society (that review is pending!) without the membership fees. Classic, beautiful ambiance and a great soundtrack that takes you back to the 20's and 30's. I love the little white cupboards with glass windows holding all the liquor behind the bar. And even the bathrooms are candle-lit and pretty. \nThe menu is impressive, even though on the night I went there were 3 cocktails that sounded SO good but were unavailable (the waitress said they had to \"infuse\" something...). I went for a sweet concoction of lavender, something citrus-y, and gin ($9) and it was unlike anything I've ever had -- and smelled divine. The cocktails are arranged under headings like 'modern white', 'classic brown', and range from 1.5-3 oz. They have beer and wine too, but it would be pretty silly to come here and not try a cocktail. Attention is paid to presentation, whether that's the perfectly curled lemon rind or a dramatically large ice cube. \nThe only food offering is a cheese plate ($18), but it is a great cheese plate! The size is good for snacking for 2-4 people. The cheeses probably change frequently, but when i went there was a blue cheese, soft brie-like cheese, and a hard cheese that was part goat milk and part cow milk based. All were from La Belle Province. Between my DC's, the blue cheese was the favourite. They came with 3 tiny pots of spreads and such. Most memorable were the marinated cherries. \nOur server was knowledgeable and warm. \nDefinitely will be back to try out more of the cocktails! \nNB: NO vodka and NO credit cards."^^ . . . "3"^^ .
