Swallow Tail Culinary Adventures

Chef Robin Kort
With over 200 restaurants cooking up a flood in Vancouver for the Dine Out Restaurant Festival 2017, it can be a bit daunting to pick where you're going to get the best eats.  Here are my top picks to help narrow it down for you, if you trust me:) - Chef Robin
  1. Bishops - A Vancouver institution really and eons ahead of the locavore trend and many diners have never been there.  So this is your chance! John Bishop has created a dine out menu for BC seafood lovers, classic.
  2. Maenam - Chef Angus An knocks it out of the park every year.  Go and leave stuffed to the brim with his modern twist on delicious Thai food.
  3. The Vancouver Aquarium - Star Chef Ned Bell creates a 3 course menu in the aquarium bistro as a pop-up restaurant
  4. Secret Supper Soiree of course:) A travelling culinary odyssey set in 1920's Vancouver.  A few tickets left for  this Friday, more info here.
