We don’t need to tell you that piping hot French fries drowning in gravy and cheese curds is a more reliable source of comfort than any partner ever could be. However, this week Fable Diner’s Head Chef Josef Driemel is putting an elegant spin on the Canadian classic – poutine with beef gravy, smoked brisket, caramelized onions, Canadian cheese curds and horseradish cream. Sounds like love at first bite (cliché, sorry, but we’re in love).When: Now – Thursday, February 7Where: Fable DinerCost: $14More Info: fablediner.com (Photo Credit: Origo Club.)
Catch up on old gossip in the daintiest way possible in Richmond’s Origo Club, where an exclusive Chinese New Year afternoon tea is available for this week only.

Forget boy bands and girl groups: The Paperboys are self-identified as the only “multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, multi-generational, multi-lingual, multi-instrumental, genre bending, co-ed band” you’ll be shaking your booty to. That’s some pretty big talk, but with two West Coast Music awards, a Juno award, and nine albums in their back pocket, they have every right to strut their stuff. This just might be a band you and your dad can agree on.When: Saturday, February 9 8:00 p.m.Where: Fox CabaretCost: $22More Info: foxcabaret.com
