DINNER: La Roca, 155 Smith St.
It’s hard to beat the appeal of a roof-
top patio — something about even a
minor amount of added elevation feels
very novel in this exceptionally flat
Prairie city.
La Roca has a large, two-tiered
patio with 165 ground-level and
second-storey seats. The downtown
Mexican restaurant also has some
attractive happy hour specials:
trios of tacos (of which there are 11
varieties) are $14 from 4 to 6 p.m. on
weeknights, margaritas are half-off
on Wednesdays, as are bottles of wine
and “macho nachos” on Thursdays.
The restaurant and lounge doubles
as a music venue with live acts every
Friday and Saturday.
La Roca is open Tuesday through
Saturday from 4 p.m. to late. Reserva-
tions available.
OTHER STOPS: Rae and Jerry’s
Steak House (1405 Portage Ave.); the
Oxbow Natural Wine Bar & Restau-
rant (557 Osborne St.); Pizzeria Gusto
(404 Academy Rd.)
DESSERT: La Crêperie du Pont
Provencher, 50 Esplanade Riel
Sweets in the middle of one of Winni-
peg’s most iconic bridges? Yes, please.
La Crêperie Ker Breizh’s kiosk on
the east end of the Provencher Bridge
features a small seating area with
views of the Red River, Canadian
Museum for Human Rights and Old
St. Boniface. The seasonal crêperie
is situated in a replica 19th-century
tram car with a menu of savoury
galettes and sweet crêpes filled with
everything from homemade jam and
bananas to chocolate sauce and ice
cream.
Ker Breizh’s West Broadway hub,
located at 267 Sherbrook St., also has
an outdoor seating area. The kiosk
is open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. and
from 5 to 9 p.m. Wednesdays through
Fridays and from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. on
weekends.
OTHER STOPS: Sargent Sundae
(2053 Portage Ave.); Nucci’s Gelati
(643 Corydon Ave.); Sub Zero Ice
Cream (298 Jamison Ave.)
DRINKS: Langside Grocery, 164
Langside St.
The backyard patio at Langside
Grocery is a small verdant gem
surrounded by high brick walls and a
lighted tree canopy. The courtyard is
cute, cosy and often visited by neigh-
bourhood cats — an added bonus, in
my opinion.
The drinks menu is large and
ever-changing with crafted seasonal
cocktails (including low- and no-al-
cohol options), wines and beers. The
lounge also has a tight food menu with
small shareable bites, such as olives,
a shrimp cocktail, beef tartare and a
rotating cheese board.
Open from 5 to late, seven days a
week. Reservations available.
OTHER STOPS: Darling Bar (171
McDermot Ave.); The Roost (651 Co-
rydon Ave.); Pony Corral Pier 7 (1700
Pembina Hwy.)

Justin Timberlake charged
with driving while intoxicated
S
AG HARBOR, N.Y. — Pop star Jus-
tin Timberlake was charged early
Tuesday with drunken driving
in a village in New York’s Hamptons,
after police said he ran a stop sign
and veered out of his lane in the posh
seaside summer retreat.
The boy band singer-turned-solo star
and actor was driving a 2025 BMW in
Sag Harbor around 12:30 a.m. local
time when an officer stopped him and
determined he was intoxicated, accord-
ing to a court document.
“His eyes were bloodshot and glassy,
a strong odour of an alcoholic bever-
age was emanating from his breath,
he was unable to divide attention, he
had slowed speech, he was unsteady
afoot and he performed poorly on all
standardized field sobriety tests,” the
court papers said.
Timberlake, 43, told the officer he
had one martini and was following
some friends home, according to the
documents.
After being arrested and taken to a
police station in nearby East Hampton,
he refused a breath test, said the court
papers, which listed his occupation as
“professional” and said he’s “self-em-
ployed.”
The 10-time Grammy winner was
released without bond later Tuesday
morning after being arraigned in Sag
Harbor.
He was charged with a driv-
ing-while-intoxicated misdemeanour,
and his next court date was scheduled
for July 26, the Suffolk County district
attorney’s office said.
Timberlake’s lawyer and represen-
tatives did not immediately return
requests for comment from The
Associated Press.
Fluent in the inflections of pop and
R&B, he’s known for such Gram-
my-winning hits as Cry Me A River,
SexyBack and Can’t Stop The Feeling!
Timberlake also built an acting
career, garnering acclaim in movies
including The Social Network and
Friends With Benefits and winning
four Primetime Emmy Awards.
Last year, Timberlake was in the
headlines when his ex-girlfriend Brit-
ney Spears released her memoir, The
Woman in Me. Several chapters were
devoted to their relationship, including
details about a pregnancy, abortion
and painful breakup.
In March, Timberlake released
his first new album in six years, the
nostalgic Everything I Thought It Was,
a return to his familiar future funk
sound.
Sag Harbor, a onetime whaling vil-
lage mentioned in Herman Melville’s
classic novel Moby-Dick, is nestled
amid the Hamptons, around 160
kilometres east of New York City. The
Hamptons have long been a hot spot
for the rich and famous, and various
stars and otherwise prominent people
have had brushes with the law there.
The village has long had its share of
prominent homeowners and residents,
including singer-songwriter Billy Joel,
former CNN host Don Lemon, Nobel
Prize-winning novelist John Steinbeck,
feminist writer Betty Friedan, and Pu-
litzer Prize winners Colson Whitehead
and Lanford Wilson. Whitehead’s novel
Sag Harbor is set there, particularly
in a beachfront enclave where gen-
erations of Black families have spent
summers.

said he’d only
had one martini
but refused a
breathalyzer.

Get on up: La Roca on Smith Street has a large two-tiered outdoor space.
“It’s been just like a fairy tale. I’ve
seen so many kiddos rush up to me,
saying hello,” she says. “I love the
performances at Kitty Corner with
T&J, and seeing all the princesses; it’s
been absolutely magical.”
Guests are invited to chat and take
pictures with Elsa and other charac-
ters, which has been a highlight for
many children, she says.
“Throughout the week, there will
be more characters to come. So far,
we’ve had Buzz Lightyear, Sonic,
Belle and even Spider-Man in the
parade today,” the princess says.
“Elsa” says she’s loved every min-
ute of interacting with people.
“I love spreading joy and happiness.
It’s an absolute dream being here.”
A market within the fairgrounds
boasts diverse booths, offering ev-
erything from one-minute caricature
drawings to henna applications, and a
mini art gallery.
Cake-ology’s pastry chef and
co-owner, Austin Granados, showcas-
es an array of delectable pastries at
his booth.
“It’s been really fun interacting
with everyone and seeing people
enjoy themselves, especially on the
rides,” he says.
This is the second time at the
exhibition for Cake-ology, which has a
permanent location at 85 Albert St.
“The reception has been good so
far. We’ve been doing long hours,
waking up early, baking with my
team, and then bringing everything
over, setting up and staying until the
end,” says the Kostuch Media Ltd.
Top 30 Under 30 award winner for
2022.
Granados, who is featured in this
year’s second season of the Food
Network’s Summer Baking Champi-
onship, offers the flaky Breton pastry
kouign-amann at his booth.
“It’s a staple in our bakery and a
fan favourite,” he says.
Gate admission is $15, or visitors
can purchase an event package,
which includes all-day ride access,
for $59.
The Ex runs through Sunday.
