It\u2019s a time of year we turn our attention to foods that are deeply satisfying.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The fest is a chance to taste the rich, earthy flavours of freshly picked in-season mushrooms\u2014including chanterelle, matsutake, porcini, and black trumpet\u2014and rarely featured game such as red deer, wild boar, and elk.<\/p>\n<p>For the first time, the newly opened The Abbey joins La Buca, Pied a Terre, and Sardine Can in the annual foragers\u2019 and food lovers\u2019 extravaganza, with each restaurant offering unique menu items and wines to accompany them.<\/p>\n<p>La Buca will feature a delectable three and four-course menu for $52 and $60 respectively. Highlights include mustard and black pepper crusted carpaccio of elk; taglierini with butter, sage, truffle, and porcini secchi; grilled venison, soft gorgonzola polenta, quince preserves, and marsala wine; and osso buco with wild mushroom risotto.<\/p>\n<p>Diners at Pied a Terre, which offers a three-course menu for $52, can look forward to an assiette of red deer three ways: roast loin, grilled sausage, and braised cheeks; roast quail stuffed with foie gras and brioche; wild mushroom bouillon with quenelles of pheasant and oloroso sherry; and a fris\u00e9e au lardons with wild boar bacon, poached duck egg, and mushroom crouton, among many other standout dishes.<\/p>\n<p>Sardine Can and The Abbey will feature extensive Game and Wild Mushroom fresh sheets. \u201cB.C. is one of the best mushroom regions in the world,\u201d Durbach says. \u201cThese foods also pair beautifully with intensely flavourful wines.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>About La Buca | Located in the heart of Vancouver\u2019s Westside, La Buca is a beloved neighbourhood restaurant that features handmade pasta and regional Italian specialties, La Buca is open for dinner Sunday to Thursday from 5 to 9:30 pm and from 5 to 10 pm on Friday and Saturday.
