NORTH Shore and Vancouver chefs are paying trib-
ute to the oid oubbly during Champagne Takes on the
Canadian Wilds. Each chef is creating an hors d'oeu-

- yre with wild satmon or wild game, to pair with Moet

to Champagne

IT looks like champagne
is getting down to
everyday living in
British Coiumbia.

While most of the cham-
pagne purchased here is
quaffed between December !
and New Year’s Day, new sales
figures from Moer &
Chandon reflect a 13%
inerease in provincial cham-
pagne sales from January to
August this year.

“Champagne is moving
away from being simply a cele-
bratory deverage to becoming
an everyday indulgence,” says
Mario Evangelista, of
Corby’s, the representative for
Moet & Chandon.

To prove their point, Moct
and Chandon have invited
cight chefs from the premier
hotels in B.C to participate in
Champagne Takes on the
Canadian Wilds. They have
given each chef the challenge
of creating an hors d’ocuvte
with wild salmon or wild

& Chandon Brut Impenal.

“We want to give people
an opportunity to purchase
champagne as they would a
glass of wine or cocktail, not
just On special occasions,” say's
Evangelista.

At the Pacific Palisades,
their new chef, Denis Blais
(formerly of The Prow) will
feature a wild mushroom and
goat cheese brioche in the
Montercy Lounge and Grill
during the months of
November and December.
Robert Le Crom of Hotel

Vancouver has created a
smoked salmon and crispy

potato Napoleon.

Louis Gervais from the
Sutton Place will fearure a wild
rabbit marjoram brioche.

Starting November 29, and
through December, the event

HEY, IT’S THE NINETIES! THAT'S WHY CIAO MEIN
has invented what we like to call “Ciao. for now”:
Italian cuisine that takes exotic Eastern spices off
the back burner and serves them up for an in-your-face
taste experience.

Sample our Stir-fried Italian linguine with black beans,
or our delicious Chinatown pizza with barbequed duck
and shiitake mushrooms. And if you're tired of swimming
in the mainstream, you'll love our grilled salmon served
with bamboo shoots and devilishly hot wasabi mayo. And
don’t forget, we offer a great selection of Italian dishes
for traditional pasta lovers.

So Ciao on down and discover the
grownup taste of two old worlds.
