Important Event Notes
  • Promo codes are not applicable to this event. Upgrades and AE redemptions are blocked by revenue management - you get what you pay for.
  • No hockey puck beef will be served! If it is, send it back! (Unless that's actually what you like, you weirdo?)
  • The Do website will be down for regularly scheduled maintenance. Often. But we won't bother to tell you in advance.

Important Event Notes (real ones this time!)
  • The burger and Scotch theme is purely optional. Those are the specialties of the restaurant, but you're free to have a salad and a diet Coke, fish and white wine or whatever floats your boat.
  • Buchanan's does weekly tasting flights for a slightly reduced price. We'll have access to a few of these from recent weeks for anyone who's interested.
  • The Do host has not achieved Dorian's level of wealth and generosity. No T-shirts or other swag will be provided.
  • Reservation is under Adam Smith, but that shouldn't really be necessary. We will be taking up most of the main dining room, to the left after walking into the restaurant.

Just in case anyone is going to be taking the LRT system from downtown to airport hotels or vice versa, there is a closure between rundle station and bridgeland station. For those coming from the airport area, you either have to catch a bus from rundle to bridgeland station and re-board the train at bridgeland, or you get off at white horn and catch an express shuttle to city hall station and re-board the train at city hall. Don't know if this applies to anyone but wanted to make people aware.

Reservation is under my name, although it shouldn't really be necessary. We will be taking up most of the main dining room - it's the side to the left after walking in the doors of the restaurant.

I have arrived in YYC and will be catching the C-train from the NW quadrant in a few minutes so may be a bit late. See you all soon!
