| Business dinner preferably in Richmond/Vancouver area (Trying to avoid DT)
Hi all,
What is a impressive yet quiet place for a business dinner? I have a request from an non-local executive who is looking to impress his clients who are usually from out of town as well . He used to take them to the Marketplace in Shangri-La but he tells me that it's actually too noisy there for business. He would like impressive dinner that doesn't serve tiny/fusion food/French (No Lumiere/West/etc), but also a place that is quiet. Money is not a concern to him. I could only think of Five Sails at Pan Pacific... Is there any other recommendations? He would actually perfer not DT area. Thanks a lot in advance.

If you want to be OUTSIDE of Downtown then you're limiting your choices by a lot but one recommendation would be Chop ( http://www.chop.ca), it's in Richmond and it's got a pretty nice ambiance. More of steakhouse, there have been hit & miss with the food & service but it's definitely a nice place to take business clientele without entering Downtown or West End.

If by impressive, you mean the food, and not only the ambiance/decor, go to La Buca ( http://www.labuca.ca/)

My only complaint with the Cannery restaurant is the drive getting in is suck a PITA since 9/11.
Food is pretty good, still.

Chop is not sophisticated enough, the following are too loud:
Cannery, La Buca, Bogarts, Trattoria.
Get a private room at ShoreClub, the exact opposite of small bites dining (steaks): http://www.theshoreclub.ca/
Or there are also private rooms at Market. Le Crodocile is great for the food (French) but not sure if it is quiet enough: http://imperialhotelmanagementcolleg...rip-today.html
If he wants, he can get a private room at Cioppino's which serves great Italian food: http://imperialhotelmanagementcolleg...posteraro.html | |
