The GOODS from L’Abattoir

Vancouver, BC | On Saturday, February 27, L’Abattoir will be hosting an exclusive wine dinner with Il Poggione, one of Montalcino’s historic and largest family-run wineries in Italy. The evening will begin at 7pm with a welcome reception and canapés, followed by a four-course dinner in the private dining room.

Please join L’Abattoir in welcoming Francesca Bindocci from Tenuta Il Poggione. Francesca is the winery’s Export Manager and the daughter of Fabrizio Bindocci, General Manager and Winemaker at Il Poggione – one of the three original producers of Brunello di Montalcino, with origins dating back to the late 1800s. The estate is located in the warmer southwest corner of the appellation, near the picturesque town of Sant’Angelo in Colle.

L’Abattoir is excited to present wines from this historic estate along with dinner pairings from Executive Chef Lee Cooper and Chef de Cuisine Greg McCallum. Wine pairings will include the celebrated 2007 & 2010 Sangiovese ‘Vigna Paganelli’ Brunello di Montalcino, and 2003 Trebbiano/Malvasia Vin Santo Sant’Antimo.

L’Abattoir is located in the center of Gastown between historic Gaoler’s Mews and Blood Alley. The restaurant was built in the 19th century and is the site of Vancouver’s first jail. Originally buttressed to the city’s main butchery and meat packing district, the name L’Abattoir pays homage to the neighbourhood’s colourful past.

Set in a refurbished brick and beam building that combines classic French tile work with industrial fixtures, natural wood, and glass and steel finishes, the restaurant offers a bar and lounge setting, elevated dining room and plush, sun soaked atrium.

Chef Lee Cooper and Owner/Operator Paul Grunberg are dedicated to highlighting the finer points of eating and drinking in L’Abattoir’s informed but informal setting. French influenced West Coast fare is paired with Wine Director Lisa Haley’s eclectic wine program and Thor Paulson’s innovative cocktail list offer a truly unique dining experience.

L’Abattoir adds to Gastown’s bustling breakfast scene with a menu mixing comforting staples with hearty, unique entrees. Thirsty brunchers can sip on creative cocktails, as well as daily feature vermouth on the rocks. Non-alcoholic options include daily bottled house made iced teas.

Just adjacent to L’Abattoir’s regular dining room is the restaurant’s stunning new private dining facility. The 1,200 sq ft. facility features historical architectural elements complimented by a contemporary design aesthetic. While large enough for 50 people seated or 70 standing, the room retains an intimate ambiance and a noise-reducing barrier blocks out the hustle and bustle of the regular dining room.

Serving seven nights a week. Join us.
