Starting next Wednesday, March 7, once a month SOCIETY Dining Lounge in Yaletown, part of the Glowbal Group, will be hosting a Movie Night. Last week, we were invited to a sneak preview to not only learn more about this event, but also to provide some feedback to help them work out some kinks before the public viewing next week.

Finally took a short break from school work and had dinner with Joyce at Yaletown L’Antipasto. We had an early reservation on a week evening, which might explain why the restaurant was fairly quiet. The restaurant itself is small and tucked away, a little difficult to find. The interior of the building featured a lot of wood, dimmed lighting; it had a very cozy and romantic feel almost. We were invited by the restaurant to sample its menu, so most of the dishes we had that night were recommended, except for the beef tenderloin carpaccio.
Mexican Wine and Tequila Tasting

Last week we were also graciously invited to attend a wine and tequilla & mezcal tasting at the YEW restaurant + bar at the Four Seasons Hotel. It was a preview of the Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo Food & Wine Festival on March 22-24, 2012, the only one of its kind in Latin America.
February is Apple Month

When I say apples, you may think of the fall season. This mentality should change. Apples, depending on the variety, are now available almost year round – from September/October to somewhere between March and June. In fact, BC Tree Fruits, the largest apple producer of local apples in Western BC, is celebrating Apple Month in February!
Novo Pizzeria – Old World Ingredients with New World Creativity

If there was one secret to great food, it’s passion. When someone really cares about the food they are serving, it shines through.
This was my first time trying Neapolitan pizza. It’s a thin crust pizza cooked in an old-fashioned wood burning stove that heats up to almost 600 Celsius, for 60 to 90 seconds. This is done to produce a crust that is crispy on the outside yet still moist and chewy.
“Simplicity is beautiful” rings true at Novo.
