Autumn’s arrival signals the time when people seek comfort in heartier fare and earthy flavours. At Bistro Pastis, we’ve created a very tasty way to celebrate the season French-style with our Fall Flavours. Our Fall Flavours celebration features special three-course prix fixe menus highlighting traditional autumnal ingredients. Each menu is value-price at $45.

October 1 through 16 – Mushroom Mania: Fungi fanciers will delight in a menu that features mushrooms in every course.

October 18 – 30, we highlight Wild Game and from November 1-13 we Celebrate Charcuterie.

Food as flavourful as this should be shared, so why not invite friends to join you in front of the fireplace at Bistro Pastis for a convivial evening of French-style autumn comfort.

Reservations are always a good idea 604-731-5020 or on-line at www.bistropastis.com.
