Cocktail Gummy Bear Tasters at Untitled Champagne Lounge
You can now try your cocktail before you buy at Untitled Champagne Lounge — in gummy bear form, that is. After many weeks of concocting, the cocktail magicians at Untitled have created gummy bears versions of three of its cocktails: Coffee & Bubbles (rum, amaro, coffee, cardamom, clove, foamer and bubbles), Lavender French 75 (gin, coconut rum, green chartreuse, lavender balsamic, basil and bubbles) and The Belafonte (green chartreuse, tequila, citrus, chai, coconut milk and cinnamon).

Feta cheese is pretty fantastic on it’s own, but baked? Yes, please. Try it at Greek Next Door, a neighbourhood Greek and Mediterranean restaurant located near Heritage Plaza. It’s served on a hot skillet with crunchy roasted peppers, onions and tomatoes. Go on a Wednesday or Sunday when wine is half-price.
