We sat at the bar for a drink and despite the bartender being obviously very busy, he was so friendly and chatty. He provided us with fun info about their cocktail collection, as well as information about the current cocktail scene in Calgary. It was so lovely getting to speak with him and he was definitely a major part of our experience being as great as it was. Drinks were delicious and unique as well!

At La Mano pop-up. Ordered 3 dishes with another solo diner. First dish (octopus rigatoni) was good. Second dish (asparagus) was not good. Third dish (ravioli) took so long to come that I paid for my dining partner’s and left without trying it. I had to ask for the machine 3 times before giving up and paying in cash. Don’t mean to poo-poo, will return to b&p on a non pop-up night but my experience was poor.
