My good friend and I were pondering about where to eat on a Saturday evening, and I had suggested East is East since she had never been there before. We were greeted by a friendly waitress and a flamenco performance! What a surprise! I won't go into detail about the food, b/c I want everyone to try it for themselves. If you are not afraid of different spices and flavours, this is a must try!

Here's what we ordered:

  • Eastern Plate with Masala Chicken & Mango, Squash & Eggplant - comes with salad, lentil soup and rice~$17
  • Ghenghis Khan Double Roti Plate ~$14

Interior:
Exotic and Cozy. Dim lighting...very kool place to be.

Price:
Be prepared to spend at least $40 for two people.

Nu Restaurant & Lounge




















Nu Restaurant & Lounge
1661 Granville Street
Vancouver, BC
(604)646-4668

Tasty or Not Tasty?
Tasty.

I took my good friend/real estate agent to Nu for his birthday. I would go back for the atmosphere and view, but not for the food in particular. I actually can't remember what our main courses consisted of...probably had too many drinks. But my point is that the food is okay, but the atmosphere and interior is the highlight of the restaurant.

Here's what we ordered:

  • Fried Oyster Shooters - Granville Island Lager Shooter ~$3.90 Each shooter
  • AAA Alberta Beef Tartare - capers, quail eggs, parsley, tomatoe toast, matchstick potatoe~$13.60
  • Shucked Deep Bay Oysters ~ $2.90 Each
  • Mains~ Can't remember, so it can't be that good. I remember risotto of some sort...

Service Good or Service Bad?
Service is great.

Interior:
Classy, Modern-Lounge Type Look. I remember the white swivel lounge chairs.

Price:
3 Applies + 2 Entrees + coffee + dessert & 4 alcoholic beverages = $180 Tax & Tip Included for two people.

Ever Going Back?
No, I can't say that I would. But it's a nice place to impress a date. I will go back in the summer to try again...this time I'll remember what entrees we ate. Sorry!
