Elements
Day 1: 5-Course Local Meets Global Tasting Series
If ever there were a good reason to cross the border into the Evergreen State, this Vancouver eatery on Main Street (opened in 2018) is it. Chef Miguel Sosa has created a distinctive eatery that merited a place on Eater’s 2023 List of “Best Restaurants in Vancouver.” Chef Sosa, who was born and raised in Mexico, began his culinary career at Rosewood, a Michelin-Starred fine dining establishment. Next came a stint as sous chef at award-winning Harry Caray’s Restaurant in Chicago. After calling the Windy City home for 15 years, he and his family relocated to Vancouver, where he took on the role of Executive Chef at Hall Street Grill and then proceeded to open Rose & Thorn at Ilani Casino. At Elements, he calls upon his mastery of classic French techniques to create sauces with Mexican-inspired influences he learned from his mother and grandmother. The rotating menu features dishes like Spanish octopus a la plancha with harissa and avocado mousse to a porcini-dusted Kurobuta bone-in pork chop in a port beurre noisette with sweet potato mousseline. In other words, food to remember!
