While preparing for an insanely busy weekend at wedding fair, Tammy and I headed to Zin restaurant and met the executive head chef and to sample some of their amazing treats. Not only was the atmoshpere simply zen but I have to comment on an amazing dish we sampled. If you ever find yourself around Zin at dinner time, you have to try the Canadian Shortribs. After tasting it, I had to call the chef out to find out how he did it. Here is the lowdown… the beef is braised until tender with porter beer, balow, fresh herbs, and veal stock. It is then served up wth Okanagon Goat cheese, celery root, and potato puree. Simply divine. Not only is the food amazing, but Zin on Robson might just be the perfect place for your rehersal dinner!
A wedding show in review
the aislewalk team attended the annual BrockHouse wedding Show this Sunday. We’re always on the scene, checking out all the happenings in the world of weddings so that we can report back to you on all the cool events and awesome vendors and products available.
The show was put on this year by Vancouver based wedding&event planners DreamGroup Productions and the principles Sarah & Geneve did not dissapoint with a classy and well put together show. As always, the culinary team at BrockHouse put on an amazing display of treats for attendants and the fashion show offered many unique dress options. There was variety of vendors there for couples to chat with and the atmosphere seemed relaxed. Although we did not get a close up of the goodie bags that the couples received, we certainly didn’t hear any complaints. At times we found it a little difficult to move around the venue as it seems that many engaged couples opted to atttend this year’s event but we heard from one of the vendors that there was actually three sperate show times and that the middle showtime actually seemed a little less busy….note to couples for next year!!!
All in all, we were super impressed with the show and will be adding it to our list of wedding must do’s.
