"This small but mighty restaurant represents the best of Vancouver dining: incredible seasonal British Columbia ingredients you’d find at a local farmers market, prepared in ways you'd probably never come up with on your own. Plus, the kitchen often uses byproducts, like sake lees and the whey left over from homemade ricotta, as extra special touches in some of the dishes. With a tasting-menu-only format ($150 CAD, with an optional $75 or $110 CAD wine pairing), candles on every table, and a warm and romantic dining room, this is one of the better special occasion spots in Vancouver. In mild weather, sit outside to enjoy the same great food, plus more plants than most restaurant patios can even dream of." - Amber Gibson
