This is mint basil pink lemonade with pink sugar around the rim and a lemon for decoration. WOW! was this amazing, super sweet I add but we couldn't get enough of it, I admit to looking like an idiot trying to lick the sugar out of the inside of the glass but I don't care it was so good, I had to savour every drop.
My entrée was Chinese egg noddle, with a pork sauce, it was ok I wasn't a fan of the pork sauce but the presentation was just so beautiful I had a hard time mixing it as I didn't want to wreck this master piece. There really wasn't much to say about this dish, it was just ok if the sauce was better I would have liked it more.
I have never had a better dessert, I cannot even begin to describe! Mint whip cream chocolate fudge, berries dipped in white chocolate ganache with oranges and white chocolate disks. every bite was a different explosion of flavour. The fudge with the whipped cream or with the berries or the orange which was my favourite by far! This dessert was truly amazing and from what I've herd the culinary kids don't enjoy the pastry side and are nervous but this was just amazing and I wish I could have told them not to worry because this was just awesome.If you live near The Art Institute of Vancouver, I highly recommend going to the second floor bistro, it is fantastic! I did have pork pot stickers for an appetizer however I sadly forgot to photograph it, but they were amazing and if you go get them! It's fairly inexpensive, as my meal came to about $19 + tax. Just keep in mind they are student chefs and our pot stickers got burned and they had to start over so I wouldn't go in expecting high quality food without mistakes.
Love your blog! I want to go to the Art Institute to eat--like now!
