BC Spot Prawn season officially kicked off yesterday and live ones are available May until June (8 weeks). So where can you find these large, sweet, succulent and delicate yet firm prawns? All over Vancouver! In the foodie world this is equivalent to Christmas.

Grocery Showcase West features independent grocers trying to take their products to the next level. Here are some trends I spotted at the show. I don’t really like calling them “trends”, but they are more or less just popular items or new ideas and products in the food scene right now.

It supports local suppliers and seasonal ingredients, and it’s a very West Coast version of Canadian cuisine. The food is fresh and good quality and it offers sophisticated versions of the basics that are still very approachable.

It’s an upscale restaurant serving Pacific Northwest and West Coast cuisine, but on occasion I felt a disconnect in the theme of the restaurant and the approach to the menu. I was on the Boneta board for the most part, but there were some hit and miss dishes.

It offers breakfasts, salads, sandwiches, and healthy options made with fresh ingredients. It’s affordable, clean, comfortable, straight forward, casual and everything is made in house besides the bread. It’s a great every day kind of place for breakfast or lunch.

It does have that “chain-like” atmosphere, but it was comfortable and no different than say your Moxie’s or Earls. The menu was more like The Keg and it’s casual dining and a modern take on a steakhouse.
