“Bon Appétit” Does Vancouver’s Food Scene In Three Pages…

20179_logoReader SH just sent over the linkage on Bon Appetit’s new Vancouver story slated for their August issue. Alan Richman, one of my favourite food writers, did the quick and breezy dirty work. In addition to his story, there are recipes from Boneta, Bin 941, Fuel, and Market, as well as write ups of ten restaurants: Salt Tasting Room, Fuel, Bishop’s, Boneta, Go Fish, Market, Lumiere, Vij’s, “C”, and Tojo’s. Extra special ribbons to Kurtis Kolt at Salt for the service nod and to Dale Mackay at Lumiere for the Michelin tickle.

  1. I thought it was lazy writing with really obvious restaurant choices. Can’t Bon Appetit do better than review Granville Island? The excessive focus on local food had this underlying skepticism that it could actually taste good. Right – because obviously, if it’s produced near Vancouver, it must be mediocre?

    The smug tone and dismissal of Vancouver’s local food love (and urban planning) was insulting overall. It’s obvious the writer has no respect or interest in the place he visited.
