From the owner of Foiegwa, this bar was in my must try list. We worked this weekend (Friday to Sunday), and we were short staff in the hospital. Sunday morning, we decided, we need to blow off some steam, and one of the colleague suggested Milky Way Cocktail Bar, and I got excited.
The bar is situated in Pointe Saint Charles, a area that I would call ghetto (I lived in this area for over 15 years), but now cool restaurants, bars, and cafés are making this area a happening place, including Milky Way.
Milky Way entrance is super funky with the the glow in the wall. When I entered the bar, I was mesmerized how beautiful this place is with glass rooftop; I am sure in the summer, this bar will be looking fantastic here.
Our waitress was so good that she knew all the drinks to the details. She was also very honest when she brought the Smokey old fashioned, in a Russian doll (so cool, see the video), she mentioned she never tried this drink, and she wanted our feedback. We were six people, two rounds of different cocktails, and some food in us were amazing reward for our hard work. Cocktails were beautifully and fun way presented. Some of them tasted amazing, some were ok, but nothing bad. I had the rigatoni, and I drizzled a bit of spicy oil. Omg, it was an absolute delight.
In the end, our waitress was closing, someone else was taking over, so our waitress (the first one) gave us complimentary shots. She knew we came after work and we were exhausted. It was an amazing gesture that we appreciated.
The prices were moderate, maybe the food was slightly overpriced.
Anyway, can't wait to come back again!
