Presentation of the "Café Régalade", in Canada.

 

GILL, Alexandra, Café Régalade's rich French cuisine warms you against the dreary winter, The Glob and Mail, November 25th, 2011.



Abstract :

Presents a café who names "Café Régalade". It is specialized in french cooking. Located at the 2836 West 4th Avenue, in Vancouver, in Canada, this restaurant is managed by Steeve Rayé. He is a famous culin, he worked with Olivier Bajard and Joël Robuchon, in London. This café is decorated as "La Belle Epoque".

Quotation :

"When the weather turns cold and dreary, no cuisine shakes the dampness from the bones better than French country cooking.
Although plenty of local bistros do an excellent job of executing the classics, none offer soul food as rich and hearty as West Vancouver’s La Régalade. And now that the Rayé family has opened another restaurant – Café Régalade in Kitsilano – we don’t have to cross the bridge to scarf it.

Operated by Steeve Rayé (son of Alain, a two-time Michelin star-winner and proprietor of the West Van flagship), this casual sibling restaurant offers a similar carte of simple stews and slow-braised cheap cuts, all swaddled in the holy trinity of wine, cream and butter.

Café Régalade launched last year as a pastry shop to showcase the sweet skills Mr. Rayé had honed as a student of the famed Olivier Bajard in southern France and at Joël Robuchon’s L’Atelier in London. Alas, the bakery concept didn’t float. After a two-month hiatus, it reopened in March as a licensed bistro with clichéd café curtains, belle époque poster art and a whimsical pig-themed décor."
