Looming 168.8 metres above the city atop the historic Harbour Centre complex, the Vancouver Lookout’s heated indoor observation deck has afforded visitors 360-degree city views since Neil Armstrong cut the ribbon in the 1977 opening ceremony. A pellucid glass elevator pilfered from Willy Wonka’s local chocolate factory speeds visitors up the tower’s side in a scenic 40-second ride. Once they reach their lofty destination, sightseers can peruse a host of interpretive displays that identify Vancouver’s landmarks including Stanley Park and the North Shore Mountains. An ensemble of knowledgeable staffers helms complimentary guided tours, doling out interesting historical tidbits. To further help guests decode what their eyes observe, a city-view guide slider clearly designates the names and locations of prominent sites. Single-visit passes grant all-day access to the observation deck, enabling visitors to watch planes landing on the sun-dappled waters of Harbour Water Airport throughout the day and return in the evening to bask in the glow of the city’s twinkling lights and prominently displayed bat signals.

Richmond Indoor Paintball enthralls competitive sharpshooters as they show off their sniping and strategic skills on a 25,000-square-foot air-conditioned field. After strapping on a full-covered mask, a tactical vest, and camouflaged jacket and pants to blend in with do-not-enter signs, players load their markers with an unlimited quantity of compressed air and 100 paintballs. Sidle up against graffiti-cluttered walls or crouch behind beat-up old cars as shots fire from the light-aluminum body of a standard BT marker. Gunsmiths can also opt to shield themselves with complimentary kneepads, gloves, and a neck protector, though paintballs beyond the allotted 100 require an additional fee for visitors itching to play longer. Richmond Indoor Paintball accommodates guests from noon to midnight each day except Tuesday, when the facility closes for cleaning and community art-history lectures.

Big Lou’s Butcher Shop
http://biglousbutchershop.com/
269 Powell St. Vancouver, British Columbia

$110 for a Cooking Class with Dinner ($250 Value)

Classes of up to 14 people learn about sausage recipes and practice making their own gourmet links. The instructors then teach pupils how to trim, cure, and juggle salmon before demonstrating techniques to cook the fillets. Finally, participants learn how to buy, trim, and braise two different cuts. After class, students sit down for a communal-style dinner, during which they fuel up on succulent meat and partake in a Q&A session with the butcher, the chef, and the chef’s hat. Click here for list of available class dates.

Inspired by Old World butcheries and bistros, the duo of chefs who own Big Lou’s Butcher Shop call upon local, organic, and sustainable ingredients to cultivate a selection of hand-prepared meats and succulent deli-style sandwiches. Glass display cases grant peeks at the day’s selection of handmade sausages and meat, including enough bone-in rib-eye steaks to fill a year’s worth of birthday cards. Patrons can also take home restaurant-quality preparations such as dressed racks of lamb, or immediately quell their hunger cries at a Brooklyn-style sandwich counter serving sandwiches such as pulled pork. Additionally, on-site classes teach small groups the skills needed to slice up meat or cook fish using only a stern gaze. The butchers source all their meat from local farms that boast organic, sustainable, and free-range practices.
