La Brasserie massacre

June 29, 2012 //

There were a few beautiful days in Vancouver last week so what better to spend a warm evening than stuffing your face at a window seat at La Brasserie? Nothing, nothing at all. La Brasserie (German-Franco cuisine) is located on Davie (cross street Thurlow) and seats about a small family of 6… okay I lied, but it’s really small!

Truffled poutine was MONAAAAY, so were the whipped pommes puree (mashed taters for you common folk)

Aged White Cheddar, Bacon, Crispy Onions, Truffle Aioli – Not gon’ front, one of the best tasting burgers i’ve had in awhile… and i’m a burger hater.

MURKVILLE.

Lemon, garlic, parsley and cream mussels, eaten with the mashed potatoes. I seriously had itis for about 18 hours after. The first bite felt like heaven in my mouth!

A must go to resturant on Davie. Killin’ food with a view, ain’t nothin better than that good life

Businsess lunch at the Pinnacle Pier Hotel (North Vancouver, BC)

Succulent turkey, stuffing, garlic mashed potates, steamed root veggies, caesar salad, buttery green beans and a nice ballla butter to go with my fat buns…bread buns, that is. Turkey dinner doesnt happen enough, and the Pinnacle Hotel does a mean job of puttin it out on the regular. Buffet work lunch, the only reason i attended lol
