"Thanks for recommending Cru to us. The service was just the right amount and we, of course, loved the reasonable variety on the wine list. It is certainly a restaurant that we would recommend and also be more than happy to indulge in again."

"We were fortunate to have Edible British Columbia plan our June 2005 honeymoon. Our 8-day trip was the best vacation of our lives.  Eric worked with us to customize a honeymoon that offered relaxation, luxury, and culinary greatness. Every last detail was taken care of -- hotel, car and ferry reservations (including the honeymoon suite at a Sooke B&B and a beautiful room at the Pan Pacific), dinner reservations at prime times and prime tables, picnics and hiking suggestions, and guided tours.

 

Highlights included an extraordinary meal at West's chef's table, a romantic meal at sunset at the Pointe, and a dim sum tour of Richmond with Stephanie Yuen. It was terrific to have someone take such careful note of our desires and dislikes (our menus regularly featured favorite foods such as oysters and crab, and addressed food allergies), stay within our budget, and yet balance that with freedom and down time. Most importantly, after planning our entire wedding, we were able to sit back, eat, drink and most of all ENJOY, the beauty and flavors of British Columbia. We'd return tomorrow if we could!"

Personalized Culinary Itineraries & Travel Planning

 

Edible British Columbia will personalize a culinary itinerary for you to create a unique and memorable gastronomic experience. We will send you to bistros, cafés, restaurants, farmers' markets, wineries, cheese shops and even street vendors that suit your personal taste and budget while celebrating the best of food and wine from the region. Experience Salt Spring Island lamb, Dungeness crab, swimming scallops, wild B.C. salmon, local mussels and clams and many other delectable treasures.

 

If you have more than a couple of days we would suggest that you allow time for a custom designed food and wine tour that will take you beyond the City of Vancouver. The city is only a short distance away from some of B.C.’s greatest gastronomic and vinous treasures, which can be found in the Fraser Valley, the spectacular Okanagan, and on beautiful Vancouver Island.

Restaurant Reservations

 

When traveling to a new city, the challenge for all Foodies is to ensure that when you leave a city you have experienced the region's best culinary offerings. As a seasoned traveler, I know there is nothing worse than getting home after a trip and reading in the latest issue of Gourmet about a restaurant or trying one of the "highly acclaimed" restaurants in a guidebook only to be disappointed. If you are like most Foodies, when you travel you plan your meals before your accommodation! Let Edible British Columbia ensure each day of your trip is filled with the best of what Vancouver and B.C. has to offer!

Edible British Columbia will ensure you a culinary adventure by helping you choose the perfect restaurant, making a personal reservation on your behalf ensuring the best table and a menu designed for your occasion if you wish. Vancouver is a mecca for some of the best dining in North America, right in your backyard. Let us help you discover it!

All you have to do is give us a call or send us an email and we will ask you a few questions to help determine the best restaurants in the city for you. We will then provide you with a personalized recommendation and reservation. The restaurant will be expecting you upon your arrival and will be sure you are well attended to.

Personalized Culinary Itineraries & Travel Planning

 

Do you plan your holiday around your dinner reservations?

Have you traveled more than an hour to try a new restaurant?

Do you love to read menus or browse through gourmet specialty shops for fun?

Do you read food and travel magazines from cover to cover?

Our clients love great food and wine regardless of price, stars or ratings. They want to experience the real, local food scenes in Vancouver, Whistler, Vancouver Island or the Okanagan, beyond the typical guide book recommendations. They want their experience in B.C. to be more than just stunning mountain and ocean scenery, fantastic outdoor adventures, world-class shopping and accommodations; they want a memorable food experience as well.

Edible British Columbia can show you sides of Vancouver's food scene even locals don't know about! Edible British Columbia designs personalized food experiences including:

  • Gourmet travel itineraries for one-day or multi-day excursions
  • Private Cooking lessons
  • Wine tastings and tours in the Lower Mainland, Vancouver Island and the Okanagan
  • Special tours of the best wine shops, gourmet food shops, specialty and ethnic food shops
  • Recommendations and/or reservations for all types of restaurants
  • Corporate rates for accommodation in Vancouver's finest hotels

The costs of Edible British Columbia services are individually quoted as each personalized food experience will be different. The cost will vary depending on the length of your visit, the size of your group or the complexity of your request. For example, personalized restaurant recommendations and reservations start at just $25, while a full-week itinerary including restaurant and hotel reservations, wine tours, cooking lessons and so forth can be $750 or more. Edible British Columbia prides itself on its ability to work within your guidelines, on budget and on time.

Prices for three or more days and more than four people will depend on the complexity of the itinerary. Any member of the group who has specific food requests is counted as a customer. Children are not typically counted as customers unless they have specific food wishes, such as all the best ice cream or candy shops.

To get started, all you need to do is send us an e-mail telling us about yourself - your food likes and dislikes (if any), the kinds of restaurants where you feel at home, any obsessions (such as kitchen shops, wine, chocolate, etc.) and specific places you have heard of and would like to try. 

From that point Edible British Columbia will provide a draft itinerary or recommendation and then follow up by telephone or e-mail if we require more information.

Edible British Columbia does not use set itineraries - every recommendation and itinerary will be unique and custom-designed based on your preferences. Your final itinerary or reservation will arrive by e-mail along with a map locating the restuarants and other culinary locations along with detailed descriptions of each.

Edible British Columbia can also arrange corporate rates for preferred hotels in Vancouver and around the province.

Edible British Columbia personally visits every shop, market, restaurant and hotel that we recommend.
