(double income no kids) and most other acronymed sectors of the public.

Though a trifle generic for the more adventurous diner, P.J.‘s Allstar Cafe food is prepared with fresh and wholesome ingredients and is aimed directly at the mid- range of the public bread-basket.

Non-burger buffs can load up on the two dozen Allstar ap- petizers, which run from salads ($2 to $5) to Nachos and chicken wings and fingers ($4 to $7).

A sampled plate of Apricot Di- jon Wings ($3.45), which combin- ed the gentle fragrance of apricots and the gentle bite of Dijon mustard, was a pleasant variation on ubiquitous teriyaki.

For the midday appetite, P.J.'s has a new line of vegetable stir fries ($5 to $7) that present selec- tions of quick fried vegetables such as zucchini, broccoli, carrots and cauliflower alone or with chicken or shrimps or both, all served on a light bed of steamed chinese noo- dles.

A sampled Chicken Saute pro- .

vided ample chunks of chicken breast and assorted vegetables on a good bedding of noodles cooked in a mild soya-teriyaki sauce.

. For those going through ham- burger withdrawal, P.J.’s has five beef-free burgers.

I tried a Chicken Cordon Blue ($5.95) to round out my matching culinary poultry ensemble.

A breast of chicken stuffed to the size of a five-pin bowling ball with sliced ham and Swiss Cheese, the rotund beast was a meal in itself.

P.J.’s also has four light beef hamburgers ($3.95) for appetites not up to devouring hamburgers the size of spare tires.

P.J.’s Allstar Cafe remains a sure bet for gourmet burger en- thusiasts, but the restaurant serves much more: food for all ages that is not overly challenging, but pro- vides full dollar value.

Open every day from 11 a.m.

TASTY MORSELS

ANCHOR IN SPAGHETTI AND BURGER HOUSE, 1653 COL- UMBIA, NORTH VANCOUVER

Formerly the Aachor In Cafe, this 75-seat dockside eatery was taken over by new management Aug. I. The cafe’s South African cuisine and eccentric ownership have given way to pastas, ham- burgers and family restaurant philosophies. ;

In order to spread the reputation of what new In owner Daniel St. Laurent claims is the finest spaghetti sauce in the western hem- isphere, all pastas at the restaurant will be on sale for $3.25 untii Nov. 6. For children under 12, the pastas will be on the house.

Free meal draws will also be made each evening.

BEAUJOLAIS NOUVEAU

Practising wine stewards, viticulturists and all raving wine enthusiasts will be pleased to hear that the 1986 Beaujolais Nouveau itinerary has been unveiled.

Harvest of the grapes that pro- duce the slightly effervescent and extremely refreshing red wine of the season, which signals the first vintage of the new wine season, began Sept. 18.

Arrival of Vancouver's allot- ment is scheduled for Nov, 20.

Quality of the grape this year has been judged by those in the viticultural know as ‘‘excellent.’”’

B.C. climbed aboard the joyous Beaujolais Nouveau bandwagon in 1979 when a few hundred cases were ordered. :

The number has since risen to over 5,000 cases sold last year, which represents 100 tons of over- night airfreight from Paris.
