Season In the Park
We were and about on the town last Sunday. We attended the musical Fiddler on the Roof at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre. It was an excellent performance dedicated to the people of Ukraine. The cast received a rousing standing ovation.
Following the performance we dine at the famous Seasons in the Park Restaurant located in Vancouvers Queen Elizabeth Park. The restaurant is located at the highest point within the park.We had an excellent table with a view of the city. Our server was efficient and charming and had just the right sense of humor.
They have an excellent menu and a very good wine list featuring some notable BC wineries. There were six of us in our party and we all selected Tinhorn Creeks Merlot.
The Merlot is fresh and elegant with a vibrant natural acidity. Fruit from Tinhorn Creek's Diamond Back Vineyard on Black Sage Bench was fermented using natural yeasts. The wine was then aged in a combination of French, Hungarian and American oak barrels for twelve months. The ripe dark cherry flavours and firm tannins in this wine showcase the bounty of the South Okanagan perfectly.
Five of us went with the Prime Rib dinner one went with the Citrus - Ponzu Marinated Sablefish. The prime Rib was served with a gigantic Yorkshire Pudding. Sadly it was slightly over done. The prime rib was delicious.
It was a most enjoyable day
