    The "Smokehouse" Brisket

    Savor the rich flavor of slow-cooked, tender BBQ brisket stacked high on a soft pretzel bun, topped with smoky cheddar, creamy southwest coleslaw, and a zesty kick of pickled red onions. It’s the perfect balance of smoky and creamy. Served alongside house-made kettle chips and a zesty Cajun sweet corn macaroni salad, this dish delivers a generous taste of southern comfort.

    Truffle Bourbon Mac 'n' Cheese Supreme

    A luxurious fusion of velvety aged cheddar and Gruyère, baked to golden perfection for an irresistibly creamy texture. Infused with a hint of smoky bourbon and finished with a delicate drizzle of truffle oil, this indulgent dish is paired with a refreshing kale salad dressed in tangy vinaigrette. It creates a perfect balance of vibrant flavors that elevate your tasting experience.

Music feature: camaro 67

Camaro 67 brings together classic Afrobeat influences (Fela Kuti, Tony Allen), and  modern Afrofunk / Groove sounds (Antibalas, Budos Band, The Herbaliser) to produce a propulsive, high-energy, made-in-Vancouver heavy funk experience. This explosive 10-piece instrumental group debuted in the fall of 2015, picking up from where Miami Device (BC’s premier Afrobeat orchestra since 2007) left off.
