Mosaic Bar and Grille- Italian Chef Tasting Menu

The barely cooked runny yolk is meant to be popped and enjoyed along with the risotto...and enjoy I did. The golden lava coated every kernel of rice with its warm embrace and made the risotto that much more comforting.

reLISH Gourmet Burgers - Get Their Green Peppercorn Poutine!

Besides Romers, Veras, and Moderne Burger, I can't think of too many other gourmet burger joints in Vancouver (even though I obviously know there are a billion places you can get a good burger here in the lower mainland).

When you order BBQ meat, they give you a LOT of banchans (Korean side dishes)....

They make custom artisan pizza using a traditional stone oven at 600 Celsius. Hearthstone is located in Port Coquitlam so it was a little far for me. But it was definitely well worth the drive. What's unique about this pizza place is that you can create your own pizza  by picking your dough, sauce, and toppings....
