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.
RIP McRib
Visually speaking the patty is now just a rectangular block, where as (if I remember correctly) before, it took on the shape of a slab of ribs. Some might say that’s disturbing, but I thought the shape of it added charm. Now it’s just boring. The bun seems to be a slight improvement on whatever they use for regular sandwiches. There’s more texture and substance to them. The patty is very saucy, making it messy to eat and difficult to grab on to (the meat likes to slide).
Wok Box
Honestly I was rather hesitant when I first received the invitation to check out Wok Box. Asian stir-fry fast food usually isn't all that authentic, but the idea of having so many options at one location definitely intrigued me.
Burger Juice Trickle at Tree House Cafe
We were walking around town with a map in hand when one of the locals asked if we were lost. He suggested a few places for food, but insisted that we check out the cafe. He said it was one of the locals favourites around here and that it’s different.
