Between tomorrow and Sunday Oct 23, Lonsdale Quay in North Vancouver is holding its food and beverage festival, Savour. It's a series of tasty events to help you discover the various food vendors at the market. Many thanks to Lonsdale Quay Market, we have a few Market gift certificates to give away. Enter here.
Suika Snackbar
Van Eats Media invited us to try out Suika Snackbar's special package called Suika Me Silly. What a silly name. I was a bit hesitant, but when I checked out the photo gallery on Facebook, I was intrigued. Suika Snackbar is a sister restaurant of Kingyo Izakaya on Denman Street. Suika is also an izakaya restaurant serving tapa size dishes. The package we tried is a sampling menu featuring 6 dishes, some are on its regular menu, some are not. This package is available at a limited quantity for $16 in the month of October.
Fairmont Hotels’ Culinary Apprentice Dinner
Through work I was among one of the lucky ~300 guests who attended the Fairmont Apprentice Dinner. This is a culinary debut of cook apprentices from seven Fairmont properties: Waterfront, Pacific Rim, Hotel Vancouver, Vancouver Airport, Chateau Whistler, Empress in Victoria and Olympic in Seattle. Emceed by Coleen Christie of CTV, it's a six-course dinner with wine pairing.
Event: Arts Club’s Fall 2011 Celebrity Chef Cooking Classes
The Arts Club Theatre Company just announced the lineup of its Fall 2011 Celebrity Chef Cooking Classes series. In May, Mr. and I were invited to one of the Spring classes and it was a ton of fun. We truly enjoyed Chef Ned Bell's food and the warm hospitality of our host Leah.
Les Faux Bourgeois
So I've heard about this bustling French bistro in East Vancouver for awhile now, and it seems to be on everyone's list of favourite French restaurants. Les Faux Bourgeois -- A Fake Middle Class. What an interesting choice of name. After taking a look at the seemingly reasonable menu (all entrees are under $20), we decided to plan a double date and check this place out.
