Wanted pass this last minute dining and wine opportunity along. I haven’t reviewed La Terrazza for eatvancouver.net yet, but I have been there for dinner many times in a former life and was always tremendously satisfied with the quality of the food and the overall dining experience. This particular event looks like it might be fabulous.

If anyone out there does attend, please drop us a line and let us know how it was!

In a haze of packing, kayaking and last minute shopping, my brother and I found ourselves famished at 3pm on West Broadway and Fir. A whole bunch of places were closed until dinner and we didn’t feel like going to Earl’s, so we stopped into this new pizzeria that was having some kind of soft opening. The pizzas they were selling by the slice had clearly been around for a time, but we decided to have a go anyway. It’s a chain restaurant, but it seems like a pretty nice family runs this franchise. I paid with a $50, and the owner’s daughter gave me change for a $100. So there’s always the chance you could get a really good deal there (I kid).

Anyhow, for the first day, the pizza was alright, if a bit thick for my taste. But they seem like good people, and they just sent me the following email, and menu. Could be worth a shot.

Quickbite: Chianti’s
By Jason Chin
Eat Vancouver editor
Seeing as Chianti’s is only a short jaunt from my apartment, it is somewhat surprising that it took me this long to give it a try. Add in the fact that I’m a huge pasta nut - I was in New York [...]
