Join us as we return to North Van and tantalize your taste buds at several restaurants and establishments centered in and around Lonsdale and on Marine Drive. This evening tasting extravaganza is on Wednesday April 26 from 6pm until 10pm and is presented by Vancouver Foodster.
Each restaurant and establishment will be serving up Tasting Plates and Tasting Cups for guests to enjoy and you will have a chance to visit many different types of restaurants throughout the event, meet some new food loving friends, meet the chefs, and learn about each of the participating restaurants.
