Food That Tells a Story

Look, we're not gonna throw fancy French terms at you or pretend we've reinvented the wheel. What we do here is take incredible ingredients from BC farms and fisheries, treat 'em with respect, and serve 'em up in ways that make sense for where we are.

Our head chef, Marcus Chen, spent fifteen years in Vancouver's top kitchens before trading city lights for mountain air. He'll tell you himself - the best dishes come from listening to the seasons and not overthinking things. Wild salmon in summer, braised short ribs when the snow falls, foraged mushrooms whenever the forest decides to share.

The dining room's got floor-to-ceiling windows facing the peaks, because honestly, that view does half our work for us. Come hungry, leave happy.

Marcus Chen

Fifteen years in Vancouver's restaurant scene taught me a lot about complicated cooking. Moving up here taught me even more about simple cooking done right.

I grew up in Richmond, worked my way through every station you can think of, did the whole fine dining thing at some places you'd recognize. But there's something about being surrounded by mountains that changes your perspective, y'know?

These days I spend mornings foraging trails when I can, afternoons prepping with my team, and evenings making sure every plate that leaves our kitchen is something I'd wanna eat myself. We work with farmers who text me when stuff's ready to pick. That's the kind of relationship that makes this job fun.

The menu changes because I get bored easily and because ingredients tell you what they wanna be. Come say hi if you see me in the dining room - I like hearing what people think.

Sunday Brunch is Kind of a Big Deal

Every Sunday from 10 AM to 2 PM, we do this brunch thing that's become pretty popular. Eggs benny with wild salmon, buttermilk pancakes, breakfast poutine (trust me on this), bottomless mimosas... it's worth sleeping in for.
