The GOODS from Wildebeest
Vancouver, BC | This weekend’s special Mother’s Day edition of our Sunday dinner series has made Nick Miller cry tears of joy twice already. As always, these meals are curated and butchered from whole animals, lamb in this week’s case, and as such availability is very limited. Each dinner is $180 and is a complete meal for four guests, or an amazing anchor for larger groups. Dig into the menu after the jump.
The stretch:
Crispy neck croquettes
Shoulder & wild garlic sausage rolls
Seared brain salad, grilled hearts and ramps
Now that you’re warmed up:
Seared belly confit, apricot, fava tips
Glazed shanks with mushrooms
Potatoes ‘Boulangère’, drippings
Roasted saddle & chops, coffee crumbs
Smoked bean cassoulet
Cool down:
Sorbet surprise
