Unwrapped

This has been a long time coming, this unwrapping of the corner at Georgia and Howe.

We are creating, have created, a gem of a cafe. That’s just my opinion, though I’m a little biased. But I think you’ll think it’s a gem, too. First of all, we have David Hawksworth. That’s right. Maybe I don’t have that the right way around. He has us? Either which way, we are close, so close, to opening the doors of David Hawksworth’s Bel Cafe. I know David’s restaurant had been long anticipated, but I don’t think the cafe has. It’s been under wraps. And I sort of think it’s the icing on the cake at The Hotel Georgia.

I should be able to post our menu soon. Is that right, Chef? In the meantime, the overview is this: full table service as well as some ready to go. We are making fresh and nourishing soups and sandwiches. We are baking fresh pastries and confetti-like macarons. It’s macaron game on in the city. And, lastly, we have a team of baristas who have been trained within an inch of their life. That is to say, a well-trained team. Because we know coffee must be good, no, it must be great, on this corner.
