A restrained menu features a
half dozen simple yet imaginative
items, Sushi Sandwich ($4.95), for
example, combines Japanese and
American in an excellent marriage
of the two edible classics.

Chow has vowed to add to the
lounge a Swiss Raclette machine,
which he says, has yet to be seen in
Vancouver and will, once installed,
produce fondues the likes of which
West Coasters have never seen or
tasted,

An escapee from Toronto,
Chow's, enthusiasm for food and
hotel service and his Eastern flare
for things beyond the mundane
have spilled over to the hotel's
Heritage Room.

Together with chef Bruce
Milligan, he has taken the restau-
rant’s solemn and stodgy menu
aside and begun gently to knock
the high falutin starch out of its
heavy sauces and old school calorie
overload.

A new Heritage Room menu will
be unveiled in two weeks. From
the sneak preview sarnpled Thurs-
day night, it promises to be a
much-needed venting of stuffy cu-
linary air.

Milligan, who honed his skills in
Japan, courts the eye with the
same zeal that he courts the

tastebud. Visual presentation of

his creations are colorful and
imaginative.

A Quail and Chestnut stuffed
crepe, set off with a lobster-water-
cress sauce, came elegantly bound
with strip Of green onion; the en-
tree, a Provimi Veal Cutlet, was
savory and tender beneath an outer
coat of wild mushroom caps.

Food is presented with a subtlety

and an understated brilliance.
New menu entrees, according to

Chow,
$12 to $16 price range.

Service wilf remain discreet and
knowledgeable without wandering
off into the deathly serious ex-
tremities of over-Nambeed formal-
ity.

All that will remain for much-
needed overhaul is the restaurant's
name, The Heritage Root is more
suited to a museum cafe than a
vibrant restaurant.

Hems such as Nachos ($3.95)
and Tug's California Burger
(34.45) have yet to find their mark.

Decor is a wild blend of hoola-
hoops and $0s memorabilia. Music
is a touch full-votumed and ranges
well beyond the confines of Buddy
Holly and Elvis into the new throb
of 80s disco.
