DINER: Pape & Iranzad Pick Up Ex-West Chef David Gunawan For New “Wildebeest”
November 21, 2011
by Andrew Morrison | Early last month we revealed that restaurateurs James Iranzad (Cartel, Abigail’s Party) and Josh Pape (The Diamond) had secured 120 West Hastings with plans for a new joint arriving in 2012. There was no name or chef at that point (they’d only just signed the lease), so the news was “info-light”. In this week’s copy of the Westender, I have written a piece on the place, revealing a whole bunch of details, including a glance askance at the first menu and cocktail list drafts (mmm, bacon bitters). The paper doesn’t come out until Wednesday, so until then, here are the Cliff notes… Read more

DINER: Josh Pape And James Iranzad To Open 115 Seat Restaurant On Hastings
October 3, 2011
by Andrew Morrison | Good news, gluttony fans. Local restaurateurs James Iranzad (Abigail’s Party, Cartel) and Josh Pape (former Bartender of the Year, co-owner of The Diamond) have picked up the voluminous, 2,400 sqft space at 120 Hastings across from the Woodwards complex with plans for turning it into a new restaurant and bar by February 2012. They’ve only just signed the lease on the newly renovated (read: empty) location, but trades have nevertheless made their assessments and the keys are in hand. The board is set. The pieces are moving. I can’t wait for this one. Read more

Vancouver, BC | Abigail’s Party hosts the second of a series of monthly cask ale nights leading up to Vancouver Craft Beer Week this Tuesday, February 8th. A cask of one of our favourite local beers – Red Racer Pale Ale – will get tapped by Mike Tod of Central City at 6pm. Brewed with Simcoe hops, it’s delicious, it’s what pale ale should taste like, and it’s a session beer. Chef Cameron’s still recovering from Dine Out delirium but there’s talk of a roasted bone-in Sloping Hills pork chop, with polenta and bacon-braised savoy cabbage as a dinner pairing. And if it’s a different sort of pairing you’re looking for, we’ve got some new bourbon and rye on the bar too. Drop in, or call us at 604-739-4677 or visit www.abigailsparty.ca to book a table or a seat at the bar. Dates and brewer details after the jump… Read more
