A food and entertainment blog for people passionate about cooking, travel, and dining experiences
Remember when I said that the definition of a foodie is someone who doesn’t hesitate to travel for hours just to try a new restaurant? Well, this was one of those situations. In early March 2021 we made a long-awaited pilgrimage to Cambridge, Ontario (a mere 5 hours and 500 kilometers from our front door), to visit Langdon Hall – billed as one of the top restaurants in the country. And you know what – it was well worth the trip.
On a recent seven day trip to Western Canada, I had the opportunity to visit St. Lawrence restaurant in Vancouver, British Columbia. Located in the popular Gastown district, St. Lawrence currently holds the #5 ranking on the 2019 list of Canada’s Top 100 Restaurants and has received several other accolades since opening in 2017. The restaurant is a testament to the signature “haute country” cooking of Chef/Owner Jean-Christophe (J-C) Poirier and pays homage to his French-Canadian roots.
