Unlike the Toronto reveal, the Vancouver edition yielded few surprises upon release. Canada’s 100 Best Winner Published on Main continues its winning ways with yet another accolade; St. Lawrence proves that the best Québécois comfort food comes from the west coast; and chef Joël Watanabe’s Italian-Japanese fusion cuisine at Kissa Tanto has been awarded a star for its creative combinations of two locally prominent cuisines.
