Our Art, Eat and Sip Mount Pleasant event as part of the Dine Out Vancouver Festival was a great success on January 25 where guests had a chance to explore the nieghbourhood and enjoy many different types of food, drink and art experiences.

We had a special VIP session earlier that evening at Tamaly Shop and featured artist Clarissa Banos along with Chef Maria; they talked art, did some drawing and then showcased the making of their tamales and had everyone make their own tamales.

The restaurants served up tasty eats that included:

Maizal RMF served Taquitos in a Mole poblano.

Pizza Rubato served up personal size pizzas or slices that included some of their favourites such as their Pistachio pizza and the Chicken Jalapeno and more.

Trees Cheesecake & Organic Coffee served up tasters of their cheesecake flavors, pastries, and organic coffee.

At the City Centre Artist Lodge they featured a selection of art studios, some with food or drink and others without.
