Robert Belcham (best chef award) is a genius. I have been following his 'work of arts' on a plate for many years. This award is truly deserved to be in his posession.

A quantity of the best restaurants, of course, have feet in both camps, looking at the job of their family and paying close heed to growers and the land, while using the latest tech and techniques to explain their best qualities to the table as plainly as likely. The very best do it invisibly.

Investment in fine wine has attracted fraudsters who prey on their victims' ignorance of this sector of the wine market. Wine fraudsters often work by charging excessively high prices for off-vintage or lower-status wines from famous wine regions, while claiming that they are offering a sound investment unaffected by economic cycles. Like any investment, proper research is essential before investing.

I think that the restaurant of the year award should have gone to LIFT. This is a fantastic restaurant. Every time i eat there seeing the view is fantastic. Not to mention how great the food is. And every other time im there i see some of our local hockey playing canucks there as well (although i wont mention any names) =)

Honoring the best restaurants is a great way of recognizing the stupendous work done by them. Surely all the restaurants that have been shortlisted for the awards must be the best in the business so even if they do not win the prize in a particular category it does not mean they are not good, they all are winners.
Keith,
This is the tenth consecutive time that it has been held. This time Bacchus at the Wedgewood has been recognized as the best Bar and Lounge on Vancouver by the Vancouver Magazine Restaurant Awards.

Hi,
Who can a person contact to haul away a big container of grease from a fastfood restaraunt???
Really? Les Faux Bourgeois? I was actually super-disappointed with them. Maybe it was an off night, but the service wasn't great, there was blood on my bread plate, and the food was only okay. Granted, the price was right, and it was trendy, but price alone shouldn't be enough to attract business, and the whole experience just didn't live up to the hype. However, La Quercia was tremendous. So, good call there.
For formal french dining in downtown vancouver Le Crocodile is fantastic, very intimate atmosphere, excellent food and a great selection of wines. They also had an amazing chocolate mousse the last time i was there,

Thanks, JR. Here's the link to Hapa Izakaya. And here's a link to a round-up of 11 izakayas in Vancouver.
My personal favorite for japanese would have to be hapa izakaya on Robson street, fantastic service ( even although it takes time to get a table sometimes ) the food is fantastic , ive noticed they use alot if not all chiefs from japan, and just generally a nice atmosphere.

Vancouver BC has some of my favorite restaurants, i am from the east coast and travel there each winter to see family and go skiing. I can't say enough good things about the city i am just in love with it. We sell restaurant equipment and have worked with a number of local places even a few in this article.
This is a fantastic restaurant, besides Lumiere I would say definately the top in vancouver, my wife and I recently celebrated our 25th anniversary there and the service was excellent.
