Food served with style

From page 27
dued pastel colors and orginal
works of art.

Its soundtrack be-baps to classic
jazz and music from the "30> and
"AOs.

Surrounded on afl sides by
modern interior decor shops and
the growing smart-set businesses
of Yaletown, it is, with little watk-
by night traffic, a destination res-
taurant for dinner.

But Cate Veneto is definitely an

inspiring destination for those
enamoured of good food, stylishly
presented and expertly served,
and for alt those North Shore resi-
dents who might list themselves in
the Bruce Milligan fan club.

In the process of retooling its
wine fist to focus exclusively on
ttalian selections the night Table
Hopping paid a visit, Cate Veneto
offered a temporary three-dimen-
sional wine list format.

But the selection was intriguing

nonetheless.

And both Milligan and Barros
provided learned guidance
through the Valpolicellas, Chiantss,
Grumellos and Barolos offered.

We tried. for example, a rich
1985 Mast Camporionn ($28), a
big full-blooded Italian red wine
that | would highly recommend.

ta the astute hands af Barras, we
sampled a Cate Veneto antipasto
$6.25): an inspired selection of
lamb chaps, finely sticed veal,
beet, spicy Italian sausage and
chicken stuted with apples.

It also included delicious smok-
ed salmon and griivd halibut.

The meats were decorated with

black olives, large stemmed
capers, tried eggplant. sliced zuc-
chint and sun-dried tomatoes,

Add olive oil, a sprinkling of
herbs and a penerous dusting of
cracked black pepper from Bar-
ross ever-present peppermull ang
you have a mint italian feast

Main entrees were equally entic-
ing, though not quite so wide-
ranging as the preliminaries.

Tiger Prawns with tomato:
Campar sauce and black olives
($15.50) sounded good, as did the
Rack of Lamb Veneto with quatro
herbs and grappa sauce ($15.95).
But bE settled Gn Veal and Prawns
with oregano and sun-dried

tomatoes.

The Milligan touches were ev-
erywhere, My prawns were wrap-
ped tightly in thin slices of veal
mined with black peppercorns and
suffused with delicate garlic
undertones,

A grand supporting cast includ-
ed asparagus spears, tried garlic,
beets, zucchini and baked onion.

All was arranged with style and
shill.

Throughout the meal fresh bread
was delivered, wine poured,
dishes renewed and requests
fulfilled with seamless grace by
Cate Veneto floor staif headed by
Barros.
