Entry: Dine Out Vancouver Round 3 Friday, January 27, 2006



Cannery Seafood Restaurant

First, I'd have to say it's a PAIN IN THE ASS to get to. We had to hike down to the place... If you drove, it'd still be annoying because you had to do a weird out of the way circle to get to this isolated pier placed resturant.

Appetizers

Roasted Parsnip & Fennel Soup with smoked Queen Charlotte sable fish

Well, I thought it didn't taste that good. It had a weird fennel taste... edible, but... I don't like.

Well, this one is my sister's. It's ok, I don't usually eat raw stuff... the tuna had a chared edge to it, so...semi cooked... it was.. chewey and tasted very tuna like...

Orange Cheesecake over Coffee Crust served with a semi sweet chocolate sauce

Eh, I don't like cheesecake, but it sounded nice... Orange cheesecake... I gave most of it to my sister. But if you like cheese cake, it was very creamy, a hint of orange, but not overpowering orange. The coffee crust didn't taste like coffee, more like had the oreo crushed cookie kinda thing... the semi sweet chocolate sauce was already congealed by the time i got to it.... so not that good...

Thai Mango Sorbet paired with fresh exotic fruit & a coconut brandy snap

This is my sister's. It was good, really fruity. The coconut snap wasn't that good... too sweet, like eating a giant chunk of sugar.

All in all, i'd say this wasn't that good.. the main course was dry... The bread was good, but the 2nd serving was cold... and the lobster oil... very nice... it actually tasted like lobseter... but the service was slow, and so was the providing of bread, we got the bread 1/2 way through appetizers. And only 3 slices of bread per basket...

Oh, my sister also got a drink, a cannery sunset... weird drink, but pretty when taken picture of :P
