If wine pairings, cocktails and a killer multi course tasting menu is your thing, then Anna Lena is a must. A place for foodies, a spot for date-night or a wine and dine with your friends, it's fine dining made fun. 

If you like seafood then it's essential to take a trip to Boulevard. A kitchen come oyster bar, which, to no surprise, rustles up a caviar service and seafood tower piled with pastrami steelhead, albacore tuna tataki and mussel escabèche, fit for champions. 

Though it's interiors may strike you as simple, the food is anything but. Inspired by the Canadian Pacific Northwest and driven by the ethics behind growing, farming and foraging, expect a menu dictated by the seasons. 

Welcome back to the vibey jazz cafés of 1960s Tokyo. It's a whole vibe. Records are spun, cocktails are mixed and the food artfully fuses Japanese and Italian cuisines. Halibut is braised with saikyo miso emulsion and caper brown butter, coppa is cooked for 24 hours and glazed with sukiyaki and a saffron salsa tonnata. Add a side of celeriac and you've got the perfect meal. 

It's all about the seasons; expect the freshest ingredients and the jazziest concoctions. Whether you opt for the roast hispi cabbage or elderflower dressed baby gem, the wagyu carpaccio for meat-lovers and the smoked barkley sound sockeye, it's all about experimenting. So don't expect the same thing twice!

The Acorn has it all: award-winning, zero-waste, fresh and locally-sourced ingredients...we could go on and on. Like with most things in life, you don't know until you try. And we really recommend you try the carefully crafted dishes at this plant-based restaurant! 

Marry local ingredients from the Pacific Northwest with Vietnamese flavours, and you get this gem: The Lunch Lady. It's Vietnamese street food in with a vibrant, modern and award-winning touch.
