Ever since the North Shore

“Honorable mention to Bean
round the World...
Best Italian:

Marine Dr., West Vancouver,
122-6282. -"
. Gamal Hana’s restaurant has
*“ continued to develop character
.and culinary depth since it
* opened in 1989. Northern Italian
cuisine at its best.
Honorable mentions in this
category go to Carmelo, Corsi
=. Trattoria; La Cucina and Cafe
Roma. .
“Best Greek:
*: Saki’s 22nd Street Cafe, 2220 ..
< Marine Dr., West Vancouver,
925-2218.
: Ina category that is extremely -
.. competitive on the North Shore
» (it would be hard to exclude
: mention’ of Anatoli Souvlaki,
'. Kypriaki or Pasparos in any dis-
- cussion of local Greek dining),
Saki’s provides great quality
Greek food in elegant
Meditersanean surroundings.
‘An interior overhaul in 1993

expanded Saki’s and added to the
already excellent Saki’s dining
experience. _

Best Mexican:

Cafe Norte, 3108 Edgemant

"1188.

‘Linda and Philip Mitchell’s
colorful and ambitious Edgemont
Village restaurant is a warm win-
ner in the best of Mexican tradi-
tions. Lots of fire and exuberance
in the food. A place filled with
charm and personality.

Best All Round:

The Savoury Restaurant, 4390
Gallant Ave., North Vancouver,
929-2373.

An emotional category to
judge: everyone has his favorite
place, and the North Shore has ~
some exceilent restaurants that
could qualify every year — La
Toque Blanche, Chez Michel, La
Cucina and The Beach Side Cafe
spring immediately to mind —
but this year | liked the Savoury
best. !ts combination of pic-
turesque Deep Cove location and
superb food make it a highly rec-
ommended restaurant destina-
tion.

Best be going: ;
