The contest is now closed. Thank you all for entering! Congratulations to Montserrat and Anita on winning the two pairs of tickets – have fun!
On March 30, Tasting Plates will take place in the Marpole neighbourhood, along Granville Street between 67th and 74th. The Tasting Plates series give you an opportunity to discover gems in different neighbourhoods. This is the first time Tasting Plates is held in this area, so I’m quite intrigued by what Marpole has to offer.

The map is your ticket to all Tasting Plates participating restaurants
Want to join me? This could be your lucky day as we are giving away two pairs of tickets (each pair is valued at $120) to Tasting Plates Marpole on March 30!

You definitely have to try Tableau Bar Bistro. Mushrooms on toast is the best thing to happen to bread since people started slicing it.

Penang Delights! Best Malaysian food in Vancouver hands down! The flavours are so authentic, everything is seasoned perfectly and the service exceeds expectations. Sweet, savoury, crunchy, spicy.. it hits all these spots! Exotic flavours that will leave you wanting more!
