The GOODS from Ancora

Vancouver, BC | Join Ancora Waterfront Dining and Patio for an intimate dining event this October, where guests will gather at the scenic waterfront location to experience a carefully curated selection of Moët & Chandon Champagnes paired with an exclusive five-course menu crafted by Executive Chef Ricardo Valverde.

Lauded as one of the top seafood restaurants in Vancouver, Ancora has wowed visitors and locals alike with its dynamic fusion cuisine that highlights West Coast seafood with Peruvian-Japanese accents. After a spectacular first year and range of awards – including being named among Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants and a recent nomination as one of Canada’s Best New Restaurants by enRoute magazine – Ancora has plenty of reasons to celebrate and, true to form, will do so with one of the world’s finest Champagne houses.

The glamorous anniversary dinner takes place on Wednesday, October 5, and begins at 6pm with a Champagne tower reception, followed by a communal-style dinner at the restaurant’s sleek long table. Led by hosts General Manager Andrea Vescovi, Restaurant Manager Kane Morgan and a Moët-Hennessy brand ambassador, guests will enjoy a selection of top Moët & Chandon bubbles (ranging from Dom Perignon to Moët Rosé Impérial), perfectly paired with Chef Valverde’s five vibrant courses.

“After such an incredible opening year, we wanted to treat our great supporters to a truly special night,” said General Manager Andrea Vescovi. “We take pride in our unique offerings – and what better way to showcase this than with a dinner featuring the Champagne house of Moët & Chandon alongside Chef Valverde’s inspired dishes.”

The 40-person dinner begins at 6pm sharp. Tickets are $200 per person (plus tax and gratuity), and include all food and wine pairings. To book, email [email protected] or call 604.681.1164.
