Nineteen beloved restaurants, cafes and breweries in the Strathcona neighbourhood in Vancouver will come together to participate in Dine Strathcona 2021. A culinary event coordinated by the Strathcona Business Improvement Association, Dine Strathcona runs from November 17 to 30, 2021, to raise money in support of vulnerable community members within Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside.
Taste of Yaletown is back for its 17th year! For the first time, it will run for the entire month of October, with restaurants offering special menus created especially for the event. This year, Taste of Yaletown (TOY) is also putting an emphasis on community and bringing the community back together safely.
I am excited to be a part of the NBRHD Restaurant Development Program, initiated by REEF Technology, to help Vancouver restaurants launch a delivery business. The restaurant industry has been hit hard this past year due to COVID, and many have turned to delivery and other innovative ways to keep their business afloat. This private grant money will provide some relief to a few restaurants, and perhaps help expand, preserve, or resurrect some beloved culinary concepts from going under and be lost forever.
At a time when the restaurants keep getting setbacks, let's show them we care. The BC Restaurant and Foodservice Association (BCRFA), Sumac Ridge Estate Winery, Save-On-Foods stores, and Town Hall Brands have partnered up in an initiative called #StandUpforService, where outstanding restaurant workers from across BC are recognized for their top-notch service at BCRFA.com.
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.
