I've been wondering, and is there any good store Downtown, Oliver, or in Old Strathcona that would sell quite unique suits and pants? What I'm looking for is a wide variety of fabric and styles (not just the usual black or dark blue business suit).

Colorblind, Jaysel, red ribbon, those kinda places typically have trendy fitted suits or bits and pieces.

or if you want to use the online route, I'm a fan of Indochino.com. Not Edmonton by any means, but I've had a pretty good experience with them so far.

I can't recall downtown Bay having a Restaurant... unless they call that small cafe as the Restaurant.

The current location did not have one, Like you said it was only a cafe. The old bay location had a cafeteria in the basement by the food department.

I remember the old Bay resto - it was often full of seniors.

Question for those who may know - (semi off topic I guess) - does anyone know a good place to buy local artwork?

I walked by the Pure Vida space on the Allard Block (Jasper Ave between 112-113 St). I noticed that the "For Lease" sign is gone and there's work going on inside. Anyone have any info on what's going in there?

^You know it. It'll add to the somewhat limited choices near the office.

With Press'd opening there and Cactus Club rumored to open across the street, this strip of Jasper Ave is getting better!

^ Someone mentioned on C2E that they want to open Cactus Club where the Sicilian Pasta Kitchen is now. Of course, I'll believe it when I see it.

On my way up to Edmonton on the Red Arrow and we just picked up 5 customers at YYC on our way up from downtown Calgary.
