Special Dale Mackay / Jesse Zuber 5-Course from Fable

Got an e-mail just yesterday from fan-favourited Fable Kitchen, announcing a special 5-Course Dinner by Dale Mackay, Jesse Zuber, and Fable Kitchen.

Chef Dale Mackay joins Fable

Friday January 30th Dale Mackay and his head chef Jesse Zuber will be executing a special 5 course dinner with Chef Trevor Bird and the Fable team. Dale currently owns critically acclaimed Ayden Kitchen in his hometown of Saskatoon but we Vancouverites know him best from his win on the first season of Top Chef Canada and Ensemble restaurant that opened shortly after.

We wanted to be sure our past Fable diners were aware of this event since a some seats still remain available.

Menu

BC Dungeness Crab with lobster gelee, kaffir lime and lemongrass
Steelcut Oats, mushroom and coffee
Saskatchewan Dieffenbaker Trout with cauliflower, ras el hanout, red wine jus
Duck Three Ways with sunchoke pave, quince, duck skin granola
Apple Pie and aged Canadian cheddar

Tickets are $125 which includes all tax & gratuity for the 5 course meal. Contact us directly by phone at Fable

604-732-1322

to purchase your tickets and arrange seating time. Each table is booked for a 2 hour dining experience and of course Chef Mackay will be front and center on our open kitchen executing his courses and visiting with our guests. Please say hi and let him know you are a fan!

Assuming 5% GST + 15% gratuity which are included in the $125 ticket, this five-course is priced at just about $105.

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 3

A picture from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. I can't remember why I had this couple in the picture, but I do vaguely remember this to be in London, on the first official day of the tour group getting together. Their insistence on my helping them take a picture caused the three of us to be late getting back to the bus. The local tour guide had a "rule" about lateness, that we had to buy chocolate to share with everyone. As it turned out, later in the trip, on at least two occasions, we were stuck on the highway on either a long commute or a traffic jam, and I had chocolate and chocolate-covered marzipan to share. About the chocolate-covered marzipan -- Apparently we were in Austria just as they were celebrating Mozart's birthday with special marzipans wrapped in foil with the famous composer's picture. I'm pretty sure it was Mirabell Mozartkugeln . Anyway, there were enough to go around the en...

The last of my pictures (at least the ones that survived the cheesy disposable cameras) from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. Below is the obligatory group photo. Not sure everyone's in it, actually. I'm pretty sure this one was taken by the tour director, Mike Scrimshire as I'm in the back row, on the right side.

More assorted couples on my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. An American couple who joked about being from "the land of the giants" -- and with good reason, because both of them were really tall! A cute Jewish mother-daughter pair who ducked out part-way to divert to Israel. I vaguely remember the issue of the daughter being an orthodox Jew was highlighted in France when, to make things easy, she just declared herself vegetarian for the wait staff. I also remember there was some logistics error in France because our party size was way underestimated or simply relayed incorrectly, and there was a shortage of food at dinner. Dessert came as an unopened can of yogurt. It did not seem like they tried to make it up to us later, either. Plus there was smoking every which way in France, and I had a helluva time with that. We were also in a hotel that seemed tucked away in the burbs, and not walking distance from anythin...
