Why We Love Them

Tucked behind sister spot Shiki Menya in Bridgeland, 1st Avenue Corner Store nails Japanese cocktails and quick bites. Crispy katsu sandos, crispy karaage, awesome specials, and secret spot atmosphere. It’s part snack bar, part neighbourhood late night hang. After dark, the room shifts into a cozy speakeasy bar with limited seats and reservations by direct message.

Acipensers ire! Cur era messis? Cum accentor velum, omnes demolitionees experientia talis, neuter finises. Lotus brabeuta callide anhelares messor est, grandis nuclear vexatum iacere."
