5 reasons to check out EAT! Vancouver's exciting Dinner Series

Vancouverites know that our city is world-class when it comes to food, and when the EAT! Vancouver Food + Cooking Festival gets underway next week there are a handful exclusive opportunities to get to know not only some of our local culinary talent, but the food of visiting chefs from around the nation.

The Dinner Series was added to EAT! Vancouver in 2015, expanding the food festival to include intimate evenings where food lovers could gather communally and feast on special menus prepared collaboratively by guest chefs and their Vancouver hosts.
