Glass Solano pitcher, $24 US; Pottery Barn.
It’s time, my friends. The days are officially here where you can toss the throw blanket and slippers and, instead, take comfort in an ice cold bevvy in the backyard. The sun, thermostat, and my thirst is screaming to whip up some liquid refreshments to beat the heat! I love the Solano pitcher for its sleek, elegant shape, which can hold 1.3 quarts – great for some summertime entertaining. It also comes equipped with a glass wand, for those who prefer their cocktails stirred, not shaken.
What are your favourite summer drinks?

Goodbye, Ultra Supper Club; hello Ultra! The radical redesign and rebranding of Toronto’s elegant eatery reestablishes Ultra as the place to see and be seen in the hip Queen & Soho neighbourhood. If you’re not distracted by playing “spot the celeb”, check out the 15 ft. tall roosters, rendered on soaring screens from iconic photographer Stephen Green-Armytage. At the hub of Ultra’s “social dining experience”, the daring Canadian designers at Castor have crafted a grand solid oak dining table that seats 24. The 25-foot behemoth also doubles as a runway! Delish madness! Would you care for a catwalk after your cocktails?

Check out the hand-carved legs of Castor’s dining table. Incredible detail!

Acclaimed design duo munge//leung have delivered a delightfully tongue-in-cheek-global-chic vibe for the space. The cavernous entrance is lit by Moroccan-style lanterns and establishes a surprisingly intimate atmosphere. So gorgeous!
