Tableau Bar Bistro To Prepare Multi-Course, French-Inspired Valentine’s Day Feast

unnamed-(83)

The GOODS from Tableau Bar Bistro

Vancouver, BC | This Valentine’s Day, tables for two will be filled with a multi-course French-inspired feast at Tableau Bar Bistro, with a selection of plates prepared by Chef Garett Blundell. Guests are invited to sip on a glass of the feature sparkling wine while deciding between options for each first course, plat principaux and dessert. To round out the evening, guests can pair each course with a wine suggestion from Tableau’s award-winning wine list.

Tableau Bar Bistro’s Valentine’s Day menu will begin with an amuse bouche of Croquettes de Jambon. Decadent options follow for the first course, plats principaux, and dessert. For the first course, choices include a Lobster Bisque with lobster ravioli, citrus, coriander and shaved asparagus, or a twist on Tableau’s signature Mushrooms on Toast, served with a foie gras and chicken boudin blanc and grana padano. Indulge in Porcini Crusted Veal Loin with grilled king oyster mushroom, pomme purée and sauce bordelaise, or opt for a creamy Saffron & Leek Risotto with crispy zucchini, basil and lemon for the plat principaux. For dessert, choose from a Dark Chocolate Mousse with blood orange sorbet, candied zest and chocolate shard, or Ginger Crème Brûlée with shortbread, raspberry gel and fresh raspberry.

The Tableau Bar Bistro Valentine’s Day set menu is available for a fixed price of $75 per guest, plus tax and gratuity. Guests are encouraged to book early to avoid disappointment. Please call the restaurant at 604-639-8692.

Throughout the month of February, Tableau is also collaborating with the Loden Hotel to offer a food-focused package designed to spark romance. The Loden’s Appétit for Love experience includes a special Lovers’ Menu dinner with wine pairings, and breakfast in bed.

Reviews & Accolades

“It’s French bistro done well enough to make me hungry at the thought of it.” – Mia Stainsby, Vancouver Sun Food Editor “You’ll go for the ambience and stay for the cocktails (which are excellent). But you’re bound to return, again and again, for the food.” – Alexandra Gill, The Globe and Mail

“Really great food. Great staff too. If I lived in that hood, I’d probably drop by once a week.” – Sarah Rowland, 24 Hours Vancouver

French-inspired eatery does it right – Metro Vancouver “Executive chef Marc-Andres Choquette (Lumiere) and executive sous chef Tret Jordan (Raincity Grill, Bacchus, Elixir) come with a fine dining pedigree that would be hard to match anywhere in the city.” – The Vancouver Sun

“Tableau channels New York bistro in much the way Joe Fortes channels San Francisco, that is to say, with a good deal of polish and sophistication. I plan to go back. Hell, I’d even pay.” – Randy Shore, The Vancouver Sun

“It’s to die for.” – Erin Ireland, Metro Vancouver
