SOCIETY Dining Lounge is launching a new promo and it is called Movie Night at SOCIETY. I was lucky enough to win a contest hosted by @Glowbal_Group on Twitter to attend this special preview event.


Movie night takes place in the lounge area upstairs where everyone can enjoy the movie while snacking on complimentary popcorn. I sat in the back but was still able to see the movie clearly. They showed Crazy, Stupid, Love and even though I've seen it before it was still hilarious the second time round.

 
The chef also prepared a special movie night menu which includes $5 Buffalo Chicken Wings and Popcorn Shrimp and $8 Pastas and Pizzas. I got to try out some of these foods and they are so delicious! We were also given a complementary popcorn box full of candy!
 

Wild Mushroom Pizza was sooo good.

Drinks were served too, my favourite being the boozy oreo milkshake! Mmmmm.

 There were also a lot of cotton candy floating around! =D


Movie Night at SOCIETY occurs on the first Wednesday night of every month starting on March 7th with a showing of Bridesmaids. I think it is a great idea and SOCIETY is such a fun place to be at with awesome food and drinks! Thank you to Glowbal for inviting me!

Disclosure: I won tickets to this event from a contest held by Glowbal Group. I was not expected to write anything in return and all opinions expressed are honest and of my own.

On Sunday, I went snowshoeing with my friends at Mt Seymour. It was the first time I've ever done it and I think it may be the first time I've ever been up there too. The snow came suddenly as we were driving up. The roads weren't even salted by then. Good thing we had snow tires! There was a car in front of us who was skidding. There were a lot of people there since there was a competition going on. We stayed to watch some of it after spending about 3 hours on the trails. The snow is so beautiful and refreshing!

CB2 is a highly successful offshoot of Crate and Barrel and has opened its second store in Canada right here in Vancouver. Affordable modern furniture for the apartment, loft and home is their specialty. 

These bird tea candle holders were my fave!

I was at the VIP opening last night to take a peek at what they had in store. DJ She was on site pumping out amazing tunes as people mingled and shopped.


 CB2 had pulled out all the stops and had The Dirty Apron, La Brasserie and Re-up BBQ serving delicious appies and there was also an open bar!






I really love their chic furniture pieces. They had a lot of funky decor. It kind of reminds me of a IKEA store but with personality! I would love to get some pieces from there when I purchase my own place.








CB2 is officially holding their grand opening today! They are located at 1277 Robson Street, Vancouver. Go check them out!

Last Sunday, I was invited to celebrate my friend's birthday at Q4 Ristorante. It used to be called Quattro on Fourth. It is beautifully decorated and has a nice warm feeling. The first thing you notice are the iron chandeliers.

Two of my friends and I shared the Pasta Pazza e Pezzi which costs $22/person. It consists of a combination of four classic pastas: Fettucine Ghiottone, Penne Arrabiata, Fusilli Tartufate and Linguine Vegetariano. My favourite was the Fusilli Tartufate which had lots of portobello mushrooms. So good! The fettucine was a bit bland in my opinion but the others made up for it. It was a really delicious meal and it's great that Q4 offers such a platter for their guests to try them all in one night! 



There's always room for dessert! The only dessert our party didn't order was the Mela Croccante which I'm sure would have been good too. I tried the Panna Cotta. It was very light and a lovely end to a filling meal.
