For a restaurant in a winter city, this can mean creating an experience beyond just dining, as Tiramisu Bistro has done with their snow domes!

We are a #WinterCity (at least we are told that) but lack the #PoliticalWill to prioritize the equity and safety of vulnerable road users.
And if you live here, you are aware of large population of seniors that use mobility devices. How is that fact not prioritized? How?
Even a cold spell can’t keep the hardiest of us indoors! Just make sure to layer up before you head out there!
