Yolk’s Breakfast in Vancouver for Lunch

On my second visit for the event, Street Food City II, at Vancouver Art Gallery, Collin and I tried a few things from multiple trucks. Since he wanted to have brunch, I suggested we go to this truck, Yolk’s Breakfast. When we were in line, I noticed a famous food blogger, Mijune-san, was in front of us. We talked to her, and she recommended their special dish.

When I looked at their website at the night before, there was a picture of this special dish, but I couldn’t find it on their menu, and now I understand why I couldn’t! Although I wanted to have pancakes, we went for the special, since Mijune-san suggested.

Free-range Fried Chicken + Waffles with Gravy + Syrup

I’m not a fan of mixing savory and sweet taste together, but I liked this one. Well, Collin didn’t. So, you’re gonna find out if you like or not.

Seasons in the Park in Vancouver for Dine Out Lunch

Right after all menus for Dine Out Vancouver was revealed on the site, I told my friends to take a look at it. I picked a few where I wanted to go and discussed with them where to go. The conversation went on and on, because the site was not easy to narrow your search, unless you know where you want to go and see the menu. This restaurant wasn’t originally picked, but because one of my friends said she really liked it when she went twice in the past and also they offered the same Dine Out menu for lunch with $18, we decided to go.

Seasons in the Park is located in Queen Elizabeth Park, which is in the centre of Vancouver resident area. Although Vancouver has a lot of raining in winter, it was clear a bit on that day so that we were able to see some view of Vancouver downtown and North Shore mountains from the restaurant.

We all ordered from their Dine Out menu.

Complimentary Bread

Beef Carpaccio
(Micro Basil, Pickled Beets, Truffle Aioli, Ricotta Cheese)

We all ordered the same appy. I took time to choose though, as the entree was also beef. Unfortunately, this carpaccio was a bit bland to us. I probably would have appreciated if there was more dressing or salt and pepper.

Grilled Steelhead Salmon
(Herb Salad, Braised Lentils, Double Smoked Bacon, Truffle Oil)

Braised Beef Short Ribs
(Gremolata, Roasted Onions, Potato Puree)

Vanilla Gelato
(Amaretto Anglaise, Chilled Espresso, Biscotti)

Hazelnut Chocolate Torte
(Banana Puree, Whipped Sour Cream)

Both desserts were quite sweet. I asked the server to pack half of them.

And, extra picture of view from the restaurant.

Overall, it was good food with $18. Even my friend, who liked this restaurant, wasn’t so satisfied this time. Within the same group of the company, I liked Dine Out food at The Sandbar last year more than this.

Seasons in the Park in Vancouver for Dessert

I was going hiking on a weekend, but I couldn’t plan well in advance. I looked for where I can go instead, and I decided to go to Queen Elizabeth Park. It is located in the centre of Vancouver resident area. After walking around, I wanted to stop by this restaurant for a coffee break.

Seasons in the Park is located in Queen Elizabeth Park, and you can see some nice view of Vancouver downtown and North Shore mountains from the restaurant.

I ordered from their dessert menu.

Somewhat, bread came. 🙂 It was warm.

Coffee

Sunburnt Lemon Pie, which the server recommended.

And, extra pictures of the restaurant and some view
