On the weekend before Valentine's, Thomas surprised me with a special dinner at a fine dinning restaurant in North Vancouver. It's named Salmon House. The name is probably because the fact that salmon is our specialized fish in Pacific Canada. It was a touching gesture because we don't usually go out for "expensive" meals.
(不會做菜的我 只能照餐廳色香味的照片 沒辦法像賢慧的豆子 自己設計 準備 七道dish 真是太配服嘞!)
The food in the restaurant is no doubt very tasty. The fishes are tenderly cooked and fresh. They also offered refreshing cooking method. The first picture is of a black cod with special sause and mashed potato. The cod was smoked perfectly with a tender bite. Thomas had the dish in the second picture. It's of three different kinds of fish. I only know Salmon But all of them offered delicious surprise to my taste buds.
The desert is a Creme Brule. Normally, I would not order this dish because, again, Mom makes them almost perfectly and frequently at home. However, this was a delicious variation that was unheard of. It is of STRWABERRY flavor! It was an exciting desert. Very creamy and smooth with a nice hint of strawberry. Meanwhile, the sourness of strawberry balanced out the sweetness.
The best part of the meal is the breath-taking scenary out the window. The restaurant is located on the hill on the North shore of Vancouver. So looking outside at night, one can see all the busy lights in Vancouver without any obstruction of the view. After the view, we drove around the block. The houses on this particular hill are all fancy big houses. They are so big, I was not sure if they are one house or two! It's among the most expensive properties in Vancouver and I suppose the view is worth every penny.
All in all, this again, is a nice place to go out and have some fine dining, next time when you come to visit ^_^
PS IT's my first time trying to do something about the picture with photoshop. So it's not very pretty yet ; p
