The menu may have changed but the prices sure haven’t! Save a quarter or two. Here is our Blue Plate menu from 1998. There’s still one hour left of Blue Plate Bonanza!

This month we’re featuring Sandhill Wines on our wine list. Located in our beautiful province of British Columbia, they operate around a key philosophy: natural is best. Just how exactly?
To create great wine you must start with the soil and vines, so our focus at Sandhill is the vineyards. Next, our winemaking techniques are designed to enhance, not interfere with, the naturally occurring fruit flavors. Two words you will hear frequently from Howard Soon to describe his winemaking technique are “gentle” and “non-interventionist”. Great fruit, helped along the way when necessary using a soft touch, will result in great wine”.
Enjoy the following wines until the end of June:
2010 Chardonnay – Okanagan Valley, BC
2010 Pinot Gris – Okanagan Valley, BC
2009 Cabernet Merlot – Okanagan Valley, BC

We dare you to resist this week’s Chef’s Choice: toasted Italian meringue sitting atop fresh lemon curd in a sweet pie crust, served with raspberry coulis and whipped cream on the side.

How does one celebrate their two-year anniversary with Twitter? With a tweetup of course! We invited some of our favorite food bloggers and Twitter superstars to join us for an impromptu cocktail party in the bistro, complete with Oyster Shucking Lessons from Oyster Bob and a fun photo station from Photostar.
The result? Converted oyster lovers, new found friends, and tweets galore (enough to have us trending in the country!).
Thank you to everyone who joined us for the evening!
Special thanks to Rick Chung, Dennis Pang, Maurice, and Alvin Lee for the photos above.

This week’s Chef’s Choice is our Lobster Benny, made with two poahced eggs and Atlantic East Coast lobster simmered in a grainy mustard vin blanc, both on toasted Yukon scallion bread and topped with hollandaise and fresh chives.
Lobster at brunch. What more could you ask for?

This week’s Chef’s Choice is our hearty Roasted Red Pepper & Roma Tomato Soup, drizzled with creme fraiche and topped with fresh chives, just like how nonna used to make it.
