Bistro 101 on Granville Island

I love visiting the Bistro 101 Restaurant on Granville Island because of their rotating monthly menu and the great price for a three-course meal ($28). The food at Bistro 101 is prepared by students who are studying at the cooking school. July had sablefish as one of the main courses so of course, I had to bring my family since my mum is a huge lover of sablefish! The food was delicious and beautifully prepared and presented.

An assorted bread basket to start the meal.

An amuse bouche - tuna tataki on a crispy wonton.

Sautéed Clams with Chil, Thai Basil & Lime.

Korean Inspired Beef Tartare.

Miso Glazed Sablefish with Sweet Pea Risotto, Heirloom Carrots, and Ginger Butter Sauce.
