[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

Dockside Restaurant - Grilled Lamb Rack

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.).

Sip, Savour, Snap & Shop at the Vancouver Christmas Market #VanChristmas

The iconic Vancouver Christmas Market has returned for its 10th year. Same as the last few years, the Christmas Market can be found at the Jack Poole Plaza. I was invited to its media event and have returned a couple of times since. Here are some food and shopping suggestions for you.

Dine Railtown – Discover Restaurants and Celebrate Community this November #DineRailtown

There's a new food event in Vancouver that introduces us to some hidden (and not-so-hidden) gems in Railtown, while supporting a local charity. Running from November 1 to 30, Dine Railtown features nine restaurants in the Railtown neighbourhood. I was invited to preview 3 of the locations.

[Wine] California Zinfandel at Vancouver International Wine Festival

This year, Vancouver International Wine Festival features the wine region of California. It's impressive that the state of California alone can be the featured region. Similar to last year, instead of aimlessly drinking my way around the big tasting room, I focused on one type of wine. Since I'm not a huge chardonnay drinker, and I like Zinfandel in general, I picked out the California Zinfandel to taste.
