The GOODS from Tuc Craft Kitchen

Vancouver, BC | Tuc Craft Kitchen will dig deep into its culinary catalogue and bring back a number of past comfort-food favourites to celebrate its fifth anniversary when Executive Chef Roy Flemming debuts a new fall menu on Thursday, October 4.

The lineup of rustic fare on offer at the Gastown destination includes such newly introduced dishes as: acorn & pomegranate salad (acorn squash, pear, cucumber, roquette, ginger & pomegranate dressing); beer & cheddar soup (IPA, gala apple, cheddar, apple cider, oat crumble); beluga lentil falafel (cauliflower purée, pickled beets) and fish stew (Lois Lake steelhead trout, ahi tuna, white wine, chorizo, corn, mint).

While a number of Tuc’s most popular menu items will remain — among them, the crispy bacon and egg, which has been ordered more than 52,000 times and counting since the restaurant opened its doors in 2013 — Flemming is also reviving several ‘greatest-hits’ dishes from years past. Returning dishes will be offered with optional wine pairings from Tuc Co-Owner and Sommelier Colin Ross.
