This year I was invited to be a guest judge and what an honour it was. What?! You want me to eat 10 mains and 10 desserts made by some of Vancouver’s finest chefs? It’s a tough job, but someone has to do it, so I guess I’ll sacrifice myself.

Pull at my heart strings. I’m almost embarrassed that it took me so long to discover this hidden gem. A fundraiser dinner with Bocuse D’or Canadian Chef Alex Chen at the new Cafe 374. A cafe worth supporting!

The menu is a bit stale, so it might be reliant on what they’ve always known, which can be good, but at the same time could be better. Although it has heart, some of the food lacks passion, but at least the ambiance is inviting enough to make up for it.

This is a definite feel good post! It had all the qualities I look for in a macaron. What? Did you think I was going to say “man”? C’mon this is Foodie in the City, not Sex in the City!

Sweet Revenge Patisserie is one of Vancouver’s few dessert only restaurants. I was charmed by the quaintness of the room, but the home made aspect of the desserts didn’t translate nearly as much as the ambiance suggested.

L’Abattoir is basically the restaurant Yaletown wish they had, Main Street secretly wished they had, and Gastown is pleased to have. Personally, my feelings haven’t really changed since my first visit and it was recently voted as Top 10 Best New Restaurants.
