Culinary Stars Come Out to Play in a “Caviar” & Cocktails Collaborative
Vancouver, BC – Thursday, March 6 marks the first culinary collaboration of its kind as some of Vancouver’s best mixers and makers host a spirited “Caviar” & Cocktails event. YEW seafood + bar’s Ned Bell and lead bartender, Justin Taylor are joined by West Restaurant’s celebrated Executive Chef Quang Dang and award-winning mixologist David Wolowidnyk, as well as renowned Bittered Sling proprietors Jonathan Chovancek and Lauren Mote for this inaugural ‘mix and match’ multi-course event.
Coming together in the ‘spirit’ of collaboration, these eminent chefs and illustrious bartenders will show guests what diverse pairings their magnificent minds can come up with when outside their comfort zones and put to the test. For the first three of six courses, traditional alliances will be off the table and intriguing ‘one night only’ teams created between bartender and chef: Ned and David; Jonathan and Justin; and Quang and Lauren. The final three courses will reunite each restaurant’s respective colleagues. All in all, this will be an exciting opportunity to showcase the vibrant potential of creative culinary combinations.
Cocktail creations are supported by local craft distillery Okanagan Spirits. Okanagan Spirits is an internationally acclaimed craft distillery featuring a unique selection of speciality spirits.
