The GOODS from Campagnolo

Vancouver, BC | “Bite your teeth into the ass of life and drag it to you!” – Ian Holm as Pascal, Big Night, 1996. One of the most adored movies amongst restaurant industry veterans is Big Night. The movie expresses both the passion and frustration experienced by many restaurateurs, while clearly demonstrating the level of dedication necessary to succeed in the restaurant business.

“Big Night is one of the best restaurant movies ever made,” says Ted Anderson, the executive chef at Campagnolo. “It captures a chef’s internal struggle to cook food that appeals to them, while desperately striving to please their guests.” Anderson has planned a family style banquet designed to engage, inspire and create a deeper connection between the guest and the chef. The menu pays homage to an array of dishes featured during the memorable feast in Big Night. Jaw dropping dishes include risotto tricolore, whole game hens, steelhead trout and suckling pig, and the extremely complicated baked pasta dish, timpano. Details and menu after the jump…

Dinner will be served alla famiglia at communal tables. Guests are invited to make their dinner reservations, for Campagnolo’s Big Night in advance by calling 604 484 6018.
