Bring in 2010 with a bang. The Libra Room is booking up with offers of a four-course dinner 5 – 9 pm with champagne and live music for $75 per person OR live music and champagne 9 pm on for just $25 a head. Knowing after-dark doings are best with live tunes, the Libra Room hosts:
Bruno Hubert Trio (6 – 9 pm). A Quebec-born pianist, Bruno is the Libra Room’s artist in-residence. He chooses well-known tunes, but his off-kilter understanding of rhythm, his dogged attack and his sweet singing lines give his work an unkempt originality.
Bella Monde (9 pm – midnight). A new Vancouver-based band, Bella Monde combines elements of dancehall, neo-soul, hip hop and roots reggae, creating a sound that is unique and fresh, yet instantly embraced by all audiences.
“Our concept is simple – good food, great value and memorable times,” says proprietor Rico Bondi. “We’re proud to be the only place in Vancouver that offers two bands and live music seven nights a week. Our aim is for the Libra Room to be an extension of your dining room; your living room; a welcoming neighbourhood joint.”
Libra Room Executive Chef Douglas Rutka’s new dinner menu is sure to lure locavores who like it fresh and natural. Pacific Sablefish, Ricotta Ravioli and Pork Tenderloin are plated alongside tasty sides: purple potatoes, crispy polenta cakes and mushroom ragout. Value drives the menu; most picks are priced under $15. Creative libations complement the fare. Like the restaurant’s namesake, the cocktail program is astrologically-inspired. The full spectrum of zodiac signs is aligned with a specific martini and cocktail featuring premium spirits. Select wines are also available by the glass or bottle. Sure to get your sign rising, high-calibre cuisine mixes with infectious energy and in-the-details service.
