The GOODS from Cork & Fin 

Vancouver, BC | The Cork & Fin team is proud to present the Nakashima Sake Brewing Company and their Kozaemon Sakes at a special dinner being held on Friday October 5th. Sake has always been a traditional pairing to the cuisine of Japan, whether Izakaya or Sushi, it is a match made in heaven. The C & F team along with Kozaemon the 14th will be exploring the beauty of pairing Sake with westernized cuisine. Playing off some of the lifted aromatics Kozaemon is known for, will allow for some phenomenal, out-of-the-box, pairings. Details and menu after the jump…

The reception will be from 6:30 pm and dinner will commence at 7:15 pm. Tickets for this event will be $99.00 plus taxes and gratuity and can be arranged through Doug Stephen – [email protected]

About The Restaurant

Set in the heart of Gastown in the historic Alhambra building, Cork & Fin is one of Vancouvers top seafood restaurants. The restaurant glows with the warmth of soft candle light, exposed brick and the antique banister framing the bar. The Raw Bar at the front provides the launching area for dozens of oysters a night as well as our famed Seafood Towers. The hot kitchen plays host to wonderful grilled whole fish, scallops and an array of carnivorous options.

Owners Elliott Hashimoto and Francis Regio work tirelessly to provide the best seafood experience for an affordable price. Working with local purveyors and farmers as much as possible has become de rigueur for the entire Cork & Fin team.

A small concise wine list is the backbone to the bar program that strives to deliver on all fronts, whether it be the seasonally changing cocktail list or an ever changing selection of local and international beers.
