Wolfgang is coming!

I’m sure everyone is sick of my posts about the Wolfgang Puck Grand Cafe Niagara, but it’s just that I keep getting more information. The restaurant is officially open for business now, but they will be having a grand opening on June 28, 2005 and Wolfgang Puck himself will be there!

Classic Iron Motorcycle Museum almost ready!

During our walk today at lunch we walked by the future home of the Classic Iron Motorcycle Museum. They have taken down the scaffolding and you can see a couple of bikes inside.

Glow in the dark Miniature Golf

There is a new attraction on Clifton Hill opening today. Cosmic Golf miniature golf is in the old Movieland building. They are still sprucing it up on the outside, but on the inside it is very cool! When I get a chance to go in and play a round, I’ll post some pictures.

I’ve taken a couple of pictures of the building that you can see here.

UPDATE:
I was out on the hill Saturday night and took a few photos of Cosmic Golf and some other attractions. The exterior looks great with the new paint. They have since completed painting the exterior of the building with the same flourescent green.

Wendy’s on Clifton Hill

The Wendy’s on Clifton Hill was recently renovated:

  • The blue siding was removed and replaced with much nicer brick.
  • Trim was put around the roof to match the regular Wendy’s style.
  • There used to be a patio that was enclosed.
  • Other improvements inside were done
  • Clock was put into the side of the building
  • New pylon sign was installed

Wendy’s is located on the south side of Clifton Hill. It is above Movieland, and is adjacent to the Great Canadian Midway.

Montana’s sign is up

I’ve posted before about the new Montana’s Cookhouse & Bar that is opening up on Victoria Avenue.

Well, nothing exciting, but the sign is up:

It seems like there is always something going on…

These signs are located on several of the buildings on the south side of Clifton Hill (Kelsey’s, Great Canadian Midway, Movieland). In case you can’t read the sign, it states the following:
