"This much-buzzed-about club on Atwater in Little Burgundy, which is owned by the folks behind Foiegwa next door, draws a crowd of hip 30-somethings looking for after-dinner drinks. You'll find bubbles by the glass and bottle, beer, and wine. It's the cocktails that are flawless, though, from a classic Old Fashioned to inventive house drinks like the Bonne Maman: Jim Beam, port, blackberry liqueur, and vanilla syrup with berries muddled with lemon and thyme. There's an element of showmanship, too; the Smoke Show, for instance, comes with just that. The sister of Foiegwa, Atwater Cocktail Club offers a full menu, including upscale snacks (garlic escargots, salmon terrine) and mains (truffle spaghetti, black angus steak frites)." - Isa Tousignant
