Holy crap! No, not the cereal, but just holy crap. I don’t know how many Mother’s Day restaurant promotions are happening around Vancouver, but my inbox is literally flooded with Mother’s Day menus. It’s the busiest day of the year for restaurants. Follow Me Foodie to Mother’s Day Brunches!

Fried chicken has been the craze for the last few years in New York and the one at Peels has made several “Top 10 Best Fried Chicken in New York” lists. The menu features gourmet comfort food and American regional classics and it was an eclectic approach to farm to table dining.

The brunch was all quite rich without necessarily being hearty, and many dishes were reminiscent of Southwestern classics, but presented in a West Coast style. At times the dishes seemed a bit repetitive, but it was still enjoyed.

Context, education, quality and the bartender can make a difference when it comes to appreciating new things, and I had all the elements to make the equation work. Here’s my Hawksworth Spirited Dinner featuring a southern menu paired with whiskey cocktails.

On the second day of Chinese New Year my true love gave to me, the “Year of the Dragon” Afternoon Tea! It may not be traditional, but it’s something new, modern and still festive to the New Year. Finish with a Matcha Fortune Cookie!

Sandwiches, burgers, pizzas and food carts dominated the Vancouver food scene last year and this. The following sandwiches and burgers are limited to the ones I tried this year and they’re definitely worth trying!
