Important Event Notes - FAQ
- It’s in November. That’s not really fall, is it?
Yes, technically it’s still fall until December 21. - Oh, good, so it won’t snow then, right??
Our commitment to the highest standards of customer service and safety extends far beyond the comfort of our venue. Unfortunately, it can snow any day of the year, and in some previous years when this Do was held in September, it was snowed. So prepare for the worst and hope for the best! - Will the YYC Fall Do offer the ability to savour a choice of refined dishes and a vast selection of wines and spirits?
Yes. The restaurant has a very long whisky list and the best burgers in town. You can savour a sit-down meal from the à la carte menu crafted for the Do. - What if I like hockey puck beef?
Then you're a weirdo, but I guess you can ask them to do it.
Important Event Notes (real ones this time!)
- The burger and Scotch theme is purely optional. Those are the specialties of the restaurant, but you're free to have a salad and a Coke Zero, fish and white wine, or whatever floats your boat
- We will have access to a few of the restaurant's recent Whisky Wednesday tasting menus which offer a flight of 3-4 whiskies at a reduced price. For past Do attendees, this is the same as previous years

This might be the bánh mì place that some of you were referencing?

It’s pretty good, something I never say for Vietnamese food which has such a high bar for me
vancouver25k walked here and it’s closed on Sunday

Than you Adam, every year you make it possible for so many folks who enjoy this hobby/passion/lifestyle to come together for great conversations and fellowship.
Not only do you pick the same outstanding venue, but you always provide gifts and share your wisdom.
Thank you again and thank you to everyone for a great time.
