The GOODS from Le Parisien

Vancouver, BC | Le Parisien presents La Table; a series of French communal dinners designed to evoke sharing, conversation and a sense of community. The inaugural La Table to be held on Tuesday, October 1, will take guests on a taste trip to the charming land of Alsace. Diners will gather around one single long table and share in tarte flambée, warm apple strudel, and choucroute; the epitome of Alsatian cuisine, combining hearty German fare with elegant French cooking.

Dinner will be paired with Gentil from the House of Hugel. This wine revives an ancient Alsace tradition of combining noble grapes to create a refreshing and spicy wine with finesse and body. Dinner is priced at $65 inclusive of tax, gratuity and wine pairing (an eventbrite service charge will be added at the time of purchase). Get all the details and the menu after the jump…

Le Parisien’s prices also reflect the French bistro ethos of good food at reasonable prices – you’ll find Le Parisien is kind to the budget and the pocketbook.
