The GOODS from Kale & Nori

Vancouver, BC | On March 6th, Kale & Nori’s popular Bittered Sling Bistro returns to Legacy Liquor Store for a third season. Each month, guests are engaged with a different spirit – both artisanal and multi-national – and their ability to pair with stunning combinations of flavours with the right Bartender at the stick. With interactive monthly themes and scorecards, this will prove to be Bittered Sling’s best season yet. Presented at the Legacy Liquor Store’s beautiful Harvest Table and hosted by Kale & Nori’s award-winning Mixologist Lauren Mote and Chef Jonathan Chovancek. This is Vancouver’s longest running and biggest cocktail and food-pairing competition, offering a high level creative event for apprentice and veteran bartenders across British Columbia.
