Dine Out Vancouver is back and reimagined! Running from February 5 to March 7, 2021, 366 restaurants are offering prix fixe menus for dine-in or take-out priced between $15 and $54. I was glad to see the return of the iconic food festival, while it's made some adjustments to accommodate the current situation. I took the time to review the menus and here are what caught my eyes. I organized my list into Lunch, Dinner, Take Out, and Special Offer.
[Dine Out Vancouver 2020] Restaurants Extend Menu Dates #DOVF
The official Dine Out Vancouver may be ending on Sunday, but some restaurants have decided to offer the Dine Out menus just for a few more days. Here is a list that I curated. I will continue to update this list as I hear more about other restaurants.
[Dine Out Vancouver 2020] The Rise Eatery – Cheeky Names and Uni Pasta #DOVF
Where have you been so far for Dine Out Vancouver? I was quite excited to see The Rise Eatery on the list. Last year they did their own prix fixe menu for $30 and I took Mama Lam and Papa Lam there. It was a good deal and we really enjoyed the food. This year, it's $35 and I still think it's a solid menu; I had them on my list of recommendations. So when I got the invite to preview their menu, yes all the way!
[Dine Out Vancouver 2020] PiDGiN: 6-course menu shared family style #DOVF
I was invited as a media to preview the menu at PiDGiN. Their food is a fusion of Asian and French cuisines, and they decorate the interior by rotating artworks by local artists. They have designed their $45 DOVF menu as close to their regular prix fixe menu as possible, which is a 6-course menu shared family style for a minimum of 2 people. You have the option of a Omnivore menu, or a vegetarian one. You can also order drink pairing for an additional $40 per person.
[Dine Out Vancouver 2020] Menus are out: What looks good? #DOVF
Dine Out Vancouver is back! Running from January 17 to February 2, the prix fixe portion of this year's program is the same as last year, with 4 price points at $15, $25, $35 and $45. The menus are now live and reservations are open. Here are some suggestions, based on past experience (Dine Out or not) as well as menu attractiveness (e.g. value for the money, choice of ingredients, creativity in the menu, enough options for two people, etc.).
