In this episode we were thrilled to bring on two good friends in Conner Joseph of The Diamond and Brandon Frederick of 33 Acres Brewing. Their energy together delighted us as they shared candid insights about life as bartender and chef during a pandemic. How they coped early last year when things shut down, to how they've adapted along the way. Both are passionate about their industry and love what they do. Jamie stands by his ascension that Conner is by far the best bartender in Vancouver. The guy is a machine. Do go watch him.
This episode is fun, extremely frank and an overall great listen. Enjoy!
The Diamond is a cocktail bar in Gastown. It's been around since 2009. The room is killer. Fun. Energetic. Some of the best cocktails around. We recommend trying their Sidecar.
33 Acres is a brewery in Mount Pleasant. It opened in 2013. The room is chic and minimalist. It's extremely busy. All their beers are delicious. They have a fun side patio. Do try their Darkness. It's a dark lager style of beer. Delicious!
