Crackers and breads and dips OH MY. That’s Cielo Rooftop food and drinks. Can you believe – this was the 50th bar in my adventures. I made a reservation *Friday 27th May 2022* thru the website, that gave me 2 choices: TERRACE or SKYLINE seating? Being a rooftop bar I thought: Skyline – which promised…

Don’t be disappointed when you get to Dirty Sultan and it’s not a Middle Eastern mecca of harem décor. There is adventure finding this rooftop bar.  First, walk down the laneway of beautiful cherry blossoms that is Bëy Lane, til you get to a glass elevator and ride it to the top. There you walk…
