Inventive interpretations of upscale Italian eats populate Tramonto’s savoury dinner menu. Travel toward taste with a starter such as the foie gras ($21), with Kashmiri-spiced poached peach and caramelized Belgian endive, or attempt the ahi tuna tartar ($13), accompanied by cucumber cups, tobiko, balsamic reduction, and a tomato chutney. The caprese salad ($13) recruits a herd of buffalo mozzarella, heirloom tomatoes, fresh basil, and balsamic to outrun hunger pangs, and the sockeye salmon ($29) stars as a main dish, steamed and raised with braised leeks, potato gnocchi, tomato confit, and a vermouth cream sauce. The wagyu beef (available at market price) asserts itself as a favourite in the meat-seeking mouths of carnivores, and the chicken ($27) comes stuffed with truffle and goat cheese. After an exciting meal, saunter into the luxurious casino and take your chances at making $10 grow exponentially, like a colony of chinchillas or a love for reality cooking shows.

Sleek black walls, selective lighting, and oversized windows imbue Tramonto with the essence of effortless luxury. Its location within the River Rock Casino Resort adds to the elegance and allows diners to delve into gambling endeavours without having to walk outside into the unlucky atmosphere.

Reviews
Vancouver magazine featured Tramonto and OpenTablers laud the eatery with eight Diners’ Choice Awards. More than 100 TripAdvisors give River Rock Casino Resort a four-star average.

McLean’s Restaurant
http://www.mcleansrestaurant.ca/
200-332 Water St., Vancouver, British Columbia

Former Canucks goaltender Kirk McLean conceptualized his namesake restaurant as an upscale arena filled with inventive and fresh brunch, lunch, and dinner plates. Evening eaters can coordinate a blind date between taste buds and the albacore tuna tartar ($10), where avocado and finely chopped tuna charm mouths with their complexity and crunchy nori seaweed chips swoop in to stave off commitment. The spinach and ricotta ravioli ($21) finds a home in creamy white wine sauce tartified with a teasing of sundried tomatoes. Sweet brunch items include a brioche cinnamon French Toast ($12), with candied walnut, Chantilly cream, and maple syrup, while the savoury side stands up with the Pacific Benedict ($15), which plops smoked salmon onto a couch of soft poached eggs before getting showered in a finish of hollandaise sauce.

Grey flannel booths, black and white photos, and vintage hockey memorabilia create a comforting contrast against the flat screen TVs showcasing hockey and competitive knitting matches. The well-manicured outdoor patio adds to the upscale yet laid back vibe, reminiscent of the slouchy King of France.

Reviews
Vitamin Daily, Savvy Insider, and Follow Me Foodie featured McLean’s Restaurant, and four Yelpers give it a 3.5-star average rating.

On special Flashlight Nights, daring souls can try to navigate the spooky labyrinth after dark with only the help of their brave, bright beam.

151 E 8th Ave., Vancouver, British Columbia

Eight 1/2 turns its back on microwaves and deep-fryers to serve up fresh, locally sourced Pacific Rim fare. Dive forkfirst into dinner with a small plate such as the four-cheese macaroni ($7.50), bringing together mascarpone, brie, parmesan, and bocconcini—the John, Paul, George, and Norman of the dairy world. Turophiles can quench further cheese desires with a thin-crust pizza such as the marketplace ($10.50), boasting goat cheese and roasted vegetables atop a tomato and pesto base, while meat-mavens can peruse eight 1/2’s array of large plates. The grass-fed steak ($18.50) pairs a 10 oz. free-range slab of beef with roasted-garlic mashed potatoes and seasonal veggies, while the lemongrass mussels ($16.50) steams the bivalves in lemongrass, galangal, red chilies, fresh lime juice, and Thai basil. End dinner with banana bread pudding ($7.50), or fuel up for a night of street-corner breakdancing with a selection from eight 1/2’s wine list or collection of cocktails and beer.

Nestled in a century-old building and adorned with century-old flat-screen TVs, eight 1/2’s elegant interior wraps its guests in a cocoon of exposed brick walls, soft lighting, and wood beamwork. Lasso up fellow Fellini fanatics and discuss how Amarcord would’ve worked better as a buddy-cop comedy over fresh cuisine and flavourful cocktails at eight 1/2.

The friendly and experienced staff populating each location offers a bevy of beautifying body-care services in a serene spa environment, which makes Spa Utopia an ideal place for first-timers and experienced faux tanners alike to darken a pale or wan pelt. During the St. Tropez tonal transformation, an experienced professional will douse your dermis in an even coat of colour via a hand-held melanin-mister that spreads the airborne glaze around all of your body’s nooks and bends, achieving a well-balanced tan. The potion, which is aloe vera based, leaves the skin moisturized and with the look of a healthy, UVA-free glow, without any orange undertones, unsightly streaks, surprising sticker-stars, or phantom faces lurking in darkened or uneven spots.

St. Tropez tans typically last for up to five to seven days, which makes this deal ideal for those embarking on a wedding, business trip, or temp assignment in the mailroom. Call ahead to reserve your spot, and be sure to wear loose-fitting, dark-coloured clothing for the post-tan dry-off period.

A test patch may be required for sensitive skin.
