LUNCH IS SERVED

After debuting to much acclaim in 2018 we are delighted to welcome back Earls Restaurant who will be catering our GA and VIP Lunch menus for pre-order and on-site purchase. This year’s menu features the wildly popular Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl, returning from last year, as well as an Earls’ favourite: The Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich. Vegans and veggies too rejoice! The 2019 Deighton Cup Menu will also include Earls’ newly minted Beyond Meat Burger. There will be something for everyone at this year’s Deighton Cup, so make sure to bet on the ponies because you can’t lose on the food.

OH, THE COCKTAILS!

Thank you to everyone who attended the Starting Gate this weekend at Rosewood Hotel Georgia! The party was electric and it was a beautiful afternoon to ring in the summer’s style season.This year’s Starting Gate also played host to the 7th Annual Cocktail Jockey Mixology Competition, and it was a treat! Amazing to watch, informative to hear, and stirring in every regard. It was a fierce competition and to conclude this year’s edition we are happy to announce the winner of the 2019 Cocktail Jockey Mixology Competition as Nightingale’s Tim Lambden! Well done, Tim, and a special thank you to The Botanist Gin for partnering with us as our official spirit of choice for this year’s competition.

Relive the afternoon excitement with our galleries for both The Starting Gate and Cocktail Jockey.
