Carly Blasutt and Ryan Murphy’s new iteration<br />
of Public Kitchen & Bar is a stylish independently<br />
owned restaurant in one of Kitchener’s oldest<br />
neighborhoods. They take pride in creating<br />
delicious small, shareable plates and well-crafted<br />
cocktails. They also offer new and old world wines<br />
and an all-Ontario craft beer list at reasonable<br />
prices. kwpublic.com<br />

vibrant dining experience where people could come<br />
together, enjoy great beer, wine, share charcuterie<br />

Swine and Vine was born earlier in the year, to<br />
accomplish just that. The charming and updated<br />
premises at 295 Lancaster Street West in Kitchener,<br />
was previously occupied by Public Kitchen & Bar<br />

Welcome to Meltwich Food Co., <strong>Waterloo</strong>, in the<br />
busy and crowded King-University food hub near<br />
Wilfrid Laurier University. There have been a<br />
couple of grilled cheese shops in the area, and this<br />
one is obviously targetting students. And drawing<br />
on the “Food Co.” Identifier. Pick a sandwich base<br />
and add toppings. There are burgers and Philly<br />
Cheesesteaks too. Cheese and especially Cheddar<br />
plays a big part. meltwich.ca/waterloo/<br />
Also near Laurier, Kitchener’s Metro Restaurant<br />

— has taken over Frat Burger, at one time no less<br />
than a Mecca for burger aficionados who loved their<br />
tri-blend of house-ground burger meat that was<br />
cooked a bit pink if you asked for it. The restaurant is<br />
a combination of the two called Metro on King (even<br />
though it is on University Avenue). fratburger.ca<br />
