Dinner by Starlight has quickly become one of the most sought after events in Vancouver. Every year, Vancouver\u2019s culinary magician Vikram Vij, prepares a one-time-only meal in honour of a special guest at the Indian Summer Festival.<\/p>\n

\n

Past dinners have included a five course \u2018Nawabi\u2019 banquet in honour of Bollywood legend Sharmila Tagore, and a BC-India fusion meal designed by Vikram Vij and India\u2019s biggest celebrity chef, Sanjeev Kapoor. This year, the guests of honour are the legendary Dabbawalas of Mumbai, as immortalized in the film \u2018Lunchbox\u2019. Every day, 5000 Dabbawalas deliver 350,000 lunches on time, error-free in the exploding megapolis of Mumbai. Richard Branson has ridden with them on Mumbai\u2019s crowded trains to see their magic up close, and the Dabbawalas were the only guests from India (apart from the Prime Minister) to be invited to Prince Charles\u2019 wedding to Camilla Parker-Bowles.<\/p>\n

\"Dabbawallahs-in-post\"<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

On their first visit to Vancouver, they share some of their funniest stories with dinner guests, and Vikram Vij cooks a Dabba (lunchbox) inspired meal in their honour. This is food from the heart of India, in the presence of the incredible human spirit that makes India tick. What could be better?<\/p>\n

Only 150 special guests will experience this evening at a secret location, to be revealed only to ticket holders. Please note \u2013 tickets to this event are highly sought after and sell out quickly!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tickets include an enchanting evening of entertainment, inclusive of drinks and a 4-course meal prepared by Vikram Vij and his team. When purchasing tickets, please advise is you have any dietary requirements (vegetarian\/vegan) or allergies.<\/p>\n

The venue is wheelchair accessible.<\/p>\n

Please feel free to\u00a0contact us<\/a>\u00a0– but be advised we will not reveal the secret location.<\/p>\n

About Vikram Vij<\/strong>
\nVikram Vij is quite possibly the best known chef in Canada. His legendary Vij\u2019s restaurant, that famously takes no reservations (Pierre Trudeau and Harrison Ford have been asked to wait their turn) is a local hotspot and a destination for anyone visiting Vancouver. Now, with several more restaurants in Vancouver, South Surrey and Seattle, a frozen foods business, and appearances on Chopped, Top Chef, Dragon\u2019s Den and Recipes to Riches, Vikram is truly a national celebrity. The heart of his success though, remains his devotion to the art of cuisine. Masterfully fusing traditional recipes with innovative contemporary twists, Vikram has created a unique space for himself, gaining the respect of fellow chefs worldwide.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
