It’s hard to feel intimidated by The Store, especially when its interior is decorated like a mid-century modern living room complete with plush rugs and comfy sofas. The intimate space invites you and your friends to chill while sipping on innovative cocktails that make you go, “Huh, I didn’t think that would taste as good as it did”. Case in point: Tito’s Twisties Sour ($25), a vodka infused with our favourite childhood snack, Twisties, and mixed with fresh lemon, simple syrup, and saline.
Don’t skimp on the food menu either – The Store serves up delicious sharing plates and mains that make it a pretty good dinner spot. Try the onglet steak ($38) – a Black Angus hanging tender with a side of truffle mash, brussel sprouts, and chorizo bourguignon. As for sharing plates, the roasted mid wings ($16) are a must-try – think fall-off-the-bone tender chicken wings that have been roasted to perfection and glazed with a cajun-spiced sauce. Enjoy it on its own, or dip it in pickled mayo for some extra tang.
