"For years, the Bayside Lounge existed in a strange little bubble. Cool because it was a bit uncool and unapologetically dated, it was, perhaps, the Norma Desmond of local lounges—a ironist’s place to hang out before irony fell out of fashion. Today there are classic cocktails, sure, but the bartenders aren’t above putting their own spin on a few longtime favorites; a Cucumber Collins, for example, or a Cosmopolitan made with raspberry vodka. There are also several variations of the Caesar cocktail, the Canadian equivalent of the Bloody Mary." - Guy Saddy
