Australian import, Nicholas Foley, has opened Charlie’s restaurant and bar in the old Pinky’s Steakhouse location at 1265 Hamilton Street in Yaletown, sandwiched between Charm Modern Thai and the Glowbal Group’s Society.

A big congratulations to Anthony Sedlak, André McGillivray and Steve Da Cruz on the opening of their first restaurant, the corner suite bistro de luxe on 850 Thurlow Street in downtown Vancouver.

Husband and wife restaurateurs, Justin and Lea Ault have recently opened their third Hapa Izakaya location in Yaletown inside the former Shiru-Bay space at 1193 Hamilton Street, right beside the Cactus Club, who interestingly held on to the space for over a year with an eye to expand their own room; luckily for us, they turned it over and the neighborhood scored big with the addition of a lively and well-run izakya that delivers the goods on all the important fronts: good food, fun atmosphere, and real value.
One of Vancouver’s most talented chefs of fine Italian cuisine, Julio Gonzalez Perini, has successfully cooked his way back (via Umberto’s, Beach House, Frederico’s Supper Club, CinCin) into the kitchen of his former restaurant (Villa del Lupo) in Yaletown, which he sold in 2005 after a successful fifteen year run starting back in 1990.
