The GOODS from Divino Wine Bar

Vancouver, BC | Because the holidays are all about food, family, and wine, and because no one likes doing dishes, Divino Wine Bar invites you to book your holiday party at their restaurant. Sommelier Sam Jonnery and chef Cam Picyk can wine and dine groups of up to 40 people for lunch or dinner, and up to 50 for standing cocktail receptions. Group menus feature exquisite cuisine such as braised bison short ribs, local butternut squash soup, and gingerbread crème brulée. The duo will also take the pressure off you on Christmas Eve with an “alla famiglia” dinner that will include antipasto, turkey with all the fixings and, of course, platters of Christmas cookies ($32 or $48, with wine pairings). If only someone would do your Christmas shopping for you, you’d really be set! For enquiries contact Sam Jonnery at 604.512.3358.

Sam is proud to offer an eclectic mixture wines handpicked both through his extensive tastings and expert palate. His wine program include more than 20 wines by the glass, wine flights, a 200-bin wine list and some of the best wine offers in Vancouver including 25% off bottle of wine every Tuesdays, free dessert with bottle of wine on Wednesdays and something that no one does in this city on Sundays. Divino’ monthly wine dinner is also an all-time favourite of many of his regular.

Chef Cameron Picyk’s menu is constantly changing not only with the seasons but also with the wines. “It’s always a challenge to be seasonal and pair with the interesting wines Sam selects but it’s a challenge I thoroughly enjoy. We both love wine and food and I hope it shows while guests are in Divino.” From the newly created Tasting Boards where you can get three different bite-size samplers with three different wines to their very popular three or five courses Chef’ Table with wine pairing, everything that Cam does is centered on the intricate marriage of food and wine. Divino Restaurant & Wine Bar is open from Tuesday to Sunday from 5pm.

About

Welcome to Divino on scenic Commercial Drive, voted Vancouver’s best wine bar in 2009 and 2010.

Located on the corner of Commercial and Gravely, Divino is much more than a modern yet comfortable wine bar. It’s also known for its excellent culinary offerings, with a West Coast menu planned around Italian influences, prepared with an artisan commitment to the freshest and highest quality ingredients. All our fish and shellfish are Ocean Wise-approved and we grow most of our vegetables in our own garden. Our tasting menus with wine parings are an all-time favourite, whether you fancy 3-courses or 5, this is an experience you will remember for a long time.

Visit Divino and spend some time looking over our extensive wine list chosen by our sommelier, Sam Jonnery. Pair your wine with a menu selection created by Cameron Picyk, our talented executive chef. Divino is also a perfect location for your special event. Regardless of the occasion, this cozy spot offers 20 seats and a beautiful south facing patio with another 40 seats inside available for your enjoyment.
