The 100th Monkey
As Rawl has already written on his blog, we visited The 100th Monkey in Pickering last night. This is a café just off of Liverpool south of Bayly. I had heard of the place in the spring when I was trying to help my boss (Steve) find an Internet café in the east end, but the number we found for the place was out of service. I figured it had closed up shop.
Not true, though. Xavier told me about the place, and it was then that I realized Rawl and I might have another place to go for sitting, lounging and drinking coffee (or in Rawl's case, tea). So we dropped by last night to hang out and work on the murder mystery party we're doing for The Law's Hallowe'en party this year. I really, really like the place.
The owner, Ryan, is still building it up. What he has so far is pretty cool, but he wants to turn it into a full-blown cybercafé. Right now, it's mostly a lounge with a few TVs and Xboxes scattered throughout, but I the vibe is right. If he can attract some good regulars, then I think he's got a winner in The 100th Monkey.
Xavier and I are looking at maybe having a board game night there, and Ryan seems pretty cool with that idea. So here's hoping it works out alright.
