Went to my second Dine Out Vancouver dinner last night with some friends. This time it was a Le Gavroche, a French restaurant at the fringes of downtown Vancouver. It is actually a house that they made into a restaurant!
There are a lot of awards that the restaurant has won hanging on the wall in the doorway. Looked promising.
The dining area was upstairs and is pretty cosy. Each table was decorated with a candle and two flowers for a centrepiece. Later on in the evening they dimmed the lights even more. Ooo romantic.
We were given this complementary chicken (?) pâté to start. It was quite tasty! Next came the complementary baguette bread accompanied with olive oil and basalmic vinegar.
Ok I have never experienced this before! Next we were given a dollop of lemon sorbet to clear our palette! So yummy! I want more palette cleansers!
My other friends had the short ribs which was a big hunk of meat. The waiter got one of my friend's order wrong so gave her a complementary drink to make up for it! That was really nice of them!
A. opted to order the 4-course tasting meal for $55 + $10 extra for the lobster. I tried a little of it and it was very rich.
I had a great time and a delicious meal. It is a bit on the pricey side but well worth it. Yum! Here is Le Gavroche's full $38 Dine Out menu:
