DIGGING IN TO UPTOWN WATERLOO’S PATIO MENUS 

PREAMBLE & PHOTOS BY CHRIS TIESSEN 

HERE’S A STATEMENT I’D BE PREPARED TO DEFEND: UPTOWN WATERLOO PATIOS JUST HIT DIFFERENT. THE EXPANSIVE RAISED DECK AT ETHEL’S LOUNGE. THE QUAINT, INTIMATE BACK TERRACE OF THE JANE BOND. THE SECOND-STOREY OASIS AT THE HUETHER HOTEL. THE SHADED VERANDA AT BEERTOWN. AND THERE ARE MORE. SO, IN LATE JUNE, THE TOQUE TEAM VENTURED UPTOWN TO ENJOY FIVE DIFFERENT DISHES (PAIRED WITH DRINKS) ON FIVE UNIQUE UPTOWN PATIOS. THE BAUER KITCHEN. RED HOUSE. PROHIBITION WAREHOUSE KITCHEN & BAR. SEVEN SHORES. AND THE RE-IMAGINED SOLÉ.
