"The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire. The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire.

We don't need no water. Let the mother— burn. Burn mother—, burn."

I'm baaaacck. After 114 straight weeks of Vancouver Daze action, I took a sabbatical and travelled around Europe. You can follow all those misadventures HERE and HERE. Anyhoo, back to Vancouver... Summer patio season is almost upon us and I can feel it in the air.

Glowbal's premiere steakhouse Black + Blue has been fastly constructing its outdoor rooftop patio and they celebrated its opening with a big party. (Me posing with foodie Grace Cheung, very top.)

The rooftop lounge is quite nice with an airy breeze and enjoyably quaint third story view of Alberni street and the financial district downtown. As for the shindig, Glowbal went all out. (Editor Crystal Kwon from Vancity Buzz enjoying some ice chilled Absolut vodka straight from source.)

Glowbal's newest rooftop locale has a nice feel to it on a warm spring day with a mint julip in hand, knobbling on some medium rare, fine cut steak. It's sure to be a busy summer destination.
