It offers modern French cakes and pastries made with local ingredients and West Coast flavour, but with traditional French techniques. I did find most of them sounding better in the descriptions, but it is still one of the better patisseries in the city.

It’s the 35th World Association of Chefs Societies (WACS) in Daejeon, Korea and Chef Tobias MacDonald from La Belle Auberge is the representative for the Americas. I was honoured to be invited to attend Chef Tobias’ final practice run for his Global Chef’s Menu at La Belle Auberge.

Canada’s best culinary talent under one roof, in one kitchen, on one evening. This will be an epic experience. A recap of the Taste of Talent benefit dinner presented by the BC Culinary Arts Foundation & Canadian Culinary Federation.
50 lbs. 50 pounds of Alaskan King Crab. What the heck? And no it wasn’t all for me, although I probably ate at least 5lbs of it. This 50lbs was for 15 people though. 50lbs is a crap load of crab and this is how foodies work it!

For $30.95/person (includes a Mimosa) I found their Sunday Brunch quite reasonable for what was offered. I was pretty impressed with their selection which included the standard American breakfast items, international options and desserts.

Although Bel Cafe offers gourmet soups, sandwiches and salads with West Coast flare, it is equally known for its freshly baked goods and of course macarons. Their Parisian Macarons are one of the most sought over in the city.

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!
