ELEM | Vancouver's Bold Fusion Playground 🌍🍽️
📍 ELEM Restaurant, Vancouver 🍸 Cocktail Adventures: Tried 6 drinks (thanks to our big group!), but all leaned too sweet for my taste: • Chef’s Negroni • Sichuan Fried Rice • White Lotus • Beijing • Vancouver Island • Zarak 🥗 Standout Dishes: ✔ Burrata Salad 🌶️ Like Chinese chili crisp met Italian cheese—unexpected but addictive! ✔ Venison Tartare 🦌🥭 Mango chunks added a tropical twist to the rich gamey meat. ✔ Crab Toast 🦀🍞 Repeat order! Creamy crab + punchy sauce on crispy bread. ✔ Wagyu Bavette 🥩🔥 Thai-inspired sweet-spicy glaze on tender beef—charred edges = perfection. 🍚 Spicy Surprise: Sichuan Fried Rice = numbing heat bomb (RIP foreigners’ tastebuds 😅). 🍞 Bread Drama: Bread N Better = spiced focaccia… then reappeared in the Piña Colada dessert (same bread, extra sweet). 🍿 Dessert Oddity: Popcorn Cream with cornflake crunch = breakfast cereal gone gourmet. ✨ Why It’s Fun: ✔ No-rules fusion (Sichuan x Italian x Thai x Middle Eastern? Sure!) ✔ Shareable plates = try more flavors ✔ Vibey, dark-lounge energy #ELEMVancouver #FusionFeast #SpicyLovers #CrabToastForever #WagyuGlaze #CocktailOverload #SweetToothFail #NoCuisineBoxes #VanEats #UnexpectedCombos
