Another Great Dining Package from VANEATS.ca – Suika SUPASUIKA

Vaneats SuikaThe crazy boys over at VANEATS.ca have connected again with Suika Snackbar to bring us a $35 tasting experience complete with cocktails.  I absolutely love eating here.  The room is always full and full of action, there’s bound to be a birthday party which means the staff perform a birthday song with all the theatrics, and the food is divine.  I sit at the bar with views into the kitchen and of the entire room which just reeks of a good time!

Suika means watermelon so when faced with the decision on the Magical Mojito Pitcher that comes with the package we choose watermelon instead of pomegranate or aloe.  The bartender added a generous amount of alcohol; this wasn’t any watery attempt at skimping on booze that I often find in pitchers of drinks.  I rarely order my drink in a pitcher in fact, but here I recommend you go for it and throw caution to the wind.  Just don’t try this with Wolowidnyk at West; it may not go over so well.

First up was the Steak Salad, marinated AAA beef filet steaks grilled to perfection and served atop organic greens with watercress, shaved beets and radish.  A nice zippy citrus dressing brought the salad together.

Next up Salmon Battera, a salmon sushi with sockeye salmon, salmon caviar, spicy cod roe mayo, Japanese basil, avocado and shiso appeared and was quickly gobbled up by myself and my two dinner companions.

The Ma-Po Rice Cake completed the package.  A deep friend rice cake with spicy ground pork sauce, this dish has an interestingly chewy texture, but one I approved of and then afterwards crave.  The sauce is delicious, full of pork and just the right amount of spice.

Since there was three of us we were still a bit peckish and therefore went for the tasty miso-glazed cod, some melting good and uber fresh tuna sahima and a bowl of their intensely flavoured oxtail ramen noodle soup with soya broth and fish powder and scallions on top.  I could eat this daily and not get tired of it.  A must try for any noodle-soup fan.
