We’re getting closer and closer to December, which means the winter-themed food events are coming in hot (or maybe “cold” is a more seasonally appropriate descriptor).
From a winter-themed dome dining experience to a self-guided dumpling crawl, here are four can’t-miss Vancouver food events to check out this week.

Winterlust is one of the best winter-themed dining experiences in the city. Five private domes get decked out in seasonal decor, each with its own temperature control, music controls (that’s right, you can choose your own music), and even a snow machine outside if the Vancouver weather doesn’t give us the perfect winter wonderland. There is also a menu full of delicious foods and drinks. Winterlust is offered annually on the patio at H Tasting Lounge in the Westin Bayshore Hotel.
When: Now through February
Where: H Tasting Lounge — 1601 Bayshore Drive, Vancouver

This festival is all about dumplings in all shapes and forms. You’ll sample delights like Chinese wontons, Italian ravioli, Japanese mochi, Korean mandu, Mexican empanadas, and Nepalese momos. Each restaurant will serve special tasting plates for guests to enjoy, allowing you to try all sorts of dumplings and visit new restaurants you’ve never been to before. Plus, this is a self-guided tour, meaning you can go at your own pace and eat at as many restaurants as you want.
