Hi ,
There is a food revolution happening around the world in London, New York, and yes, in Vancouver too. Chefs have been encouraging people to respect the animals that they eat, starting with Mr. Fergus Henderson, the owner of St.John restaurant in London who coined the phrase 'Nose to tail' in 2004. People are finally realizing that the whole animal is delicious if cooked correctly. As a result, things are
looking better for the environment and fewer animals are needed as more people decide to eat the whole beast not just the tenderloin. If you have to eat meat, eat it all. In homage to this food philosophy, Chef Jacob Deacon Evans, one of our favourite chefs (formerly of Wildebeest and now a partner in the 5 star Nemesis Cafe) has created a nose to tail that you will remember. Menu below...

Sat, March 2nd at 6:30pm
You are invited to our underground supper club in Vancouver. If you love lamb, this is your dinner, a 5 course nose to tail, Chef Jacob using smoke, flame and torch to win his way back into our hearts.
