Each year at the end of January, a whole bunch of restaurants participate in Dine Out Vancouver - a  2 week foodie extravaganza. Each restaurant comes up with a 3-course menu and sells it at $18, $28 or $38. Reservations go very quickly at the most exclusive restaurants but there always seem to be plenty of tables at medium to higher-end restaurants that normally the average person wouldn’t go to because it is on the expensive side.

We’re not going to take advantage of it this year due to having to pretend we are paupers in an effort to save for our upcoming house-purchase (when we will be paupers). But it has been very difficult to resist, especially as there are a few restaurants participating that I have wanted to try out for ages, such as Bacchus, C, Diva at the Met, Joe Fortes, La Terrazza, Raincity Grill and the William Tell Restaurant.

Ah! I’m salivating now. There’s always next year, right? Right?
