Restaurant RENO...SUCCESS!

Alright so most of you probably know by now but just incase here's my take on the newly renovated "downstairs Bison" ....it's now called
THE TAVERN
everythinghas been re-done....some of you may ask? wow really? didnt they just renovate that place? and the answer is yes, it did feel like it was still very new. But that's what good business people do. They keep people interested in their joint and comin back for more. If something isnt working, they change it.
so now we have The Tavern. completly new look and menu. I like to describe it as a upscale cozy place to spend a long time in. It can be great in many ways, you could come down from the hill and get a good spread of nachos, pizza and mac n' cheese (which by the way is DELICIOUS....you know how some mac n' cheese is just so blaaaaah unless it'd KD? well this has got a great zip to it so you wont be disapointed!) or you could get all dolled up with your girlies and go in for a quick bite and a few drinks cuz they got everything there....good wine/beer/cocktails...you name it. Or you can even grab your sweetheart and hang out in the cozy made for 2 people lil booths and enjoy sum nice steak and cheese fondue.
Can you appriciate the picture i'm trying to paint here people? It's an anytime, anyone, wear whatever you want and feel comfortable sorta place!
For Banff and winter happening right now it's perfect for the people that appriciate better food than just your everyday pub food. NOT that i dont enjoy a good plate of grease once in a while but i do like to put in an effort what i put into my body and i know that this being restaurant developed by people i know and used to work for i know that there is serious thought put into everything and i know they dont just buy crap food from anywhere therefore feeling better about myself eating and spending my money to people i know it matters too!
so please go check it out, the management knows how to treat ya and you wont be dissapointed! something for anyone!
ps. as i was having lunch there today, there was talk on how the menu upstairs (THE BISON) has changed as well and "it's sooooOoooOOOOo good" so i'm excited to grab my man or bff's and go check that out soon!
High Fives to Grant and Sal (tha chefs)...amaze of a job boys! keep it up!

Merry Xmas


*must watch alert*

I just saw this on saturday. you can thank me now.

NYE ...wutch u be doin'?

YUP! it's NYE soon and it's BANFF so helllooooooo shit's gonna go OFF! if you havent been here for a New years Eve then you have no idea. the streets are PACKED for the countdown. if you think you can drive thru, think again. It's Amazing, un describable. The only other time this has happened was when the olympics were on and Canada was in the final hockey game. why people were on the streets? not too sure...but they were!

here's sum idea though on where to go for AFteR the party in the street!

Devils gap...masquerade par-tay only $20 entry.
Hoodoo...$75. but ihear it's sold out already?
Aurora...$100....but i hear they are down to 50 tix left so get on it
and of course..
Dancing Sasquatch....$75

each bar promising a good time and most likely A LOT of people from Calgary soooo good luck with everything! as for me....not too sure. i feel kinda lost.

but JUST saying....we have masks at the shop if you need one for the gap.

3 days till XMAS? nope

So i don 't know about all you guys but HOLY SMOKES! ....IT IS XMAS IN 3 DAYS? that sh*t just aint right. A xmas spurt did hit me in november, when i took out my decorations and we put up xmas lights outside but after throwing a party @ the sasquatch for the food bank and being on this new buisness venture and then and then and then , i could go on but ONE thing is for sure i definatly have reflected on this year in the last couple days and here's wut i came up with:
in no particular order:

-facebook is taking over my life. i didnt realize this until i constantly get comments about how much i change it in a day...but then i worry people when i dont change it...litterally..i get a text on my phone that consists of : meesh..you doin ok? i havent seen an update in a few days...anything goin' on? haha it's silly
-and as cliche as it is, my boyfriend/family and friends are unbelieveable...i would be no where without the tight bunch in my life!
-Heads or Tail is pretty much the first and last thing i think of in the day. as sad as that sounds, i'm pretty into owning a business these days. Really excited for Feb/Mar when the clothing unfolds into the store. EEEP!
-i more than ever understand the value of a dollar and shopping locally.
-summers in banff blows. but i was ok with it this year cuz i was tied down to working in the basement and it seems as though i got way more traffic when it was crappy as opposed to when it was sunny.
-i still like to go out and party, but now i know my boundaries better. EHH OHHH!!!

there is more i want to write but i'm afraid it may get me into some trouble if certain authorities read this so i better not.

anyways that's just a few. now think to yourself wut's happened to you in the past year. this is not a test, i do not expect a reply. Hope your holidays go merry and fun!
-Merry xmas you filthy animals-
