YEW : Brunch, Vancouver B.C

YEW yes you need to eat brunch at YEW @ The Four seasons.  I'd been trying to get reservations for weeks but since a few months earlier they did a YEW groupon, it was always busy.  Christmas eve day my friend Paul and I decided to take a chance and go with no reservation and we had zero problem getting it. Although we didn't eat in the dinner room they have a beautiful, stunning lounge.  They seated us directly in front of the fire place, put 2 tables together and we both had the best view in the house. Thank you universe!!!

The food was amazing.....Once ordered, they surprisingly come out with a plate of mini donuts and a sweet fruit sauce, WOW.  To be honest that's the reason I was drawn to this place because I had seen a photo of them a few months before.  I ordered 2 oysters which came with all the fixings, Paul ordered and Bellini that looked delicious.  Our first plate came out, we both ordered the same thing : Pancakes, topped with Lemon ricotta cream with a raspberries/cranberries & a chocolate marscapone, YUM.  After happily eating the first dish, we paused, chilled out before the main course.  Again we both ordered YEW eggs Bene and it was a delicious choice.  Perfect hollandaise sauce as any Bene lover know can make or break the entire breakfast.  Perfectly cooked egg, roasted tomato, manchego cheese and serrano ham and a nicely toasted English muffin.
It was paired with roasted potatoes. We decided to order some bacon on the side which is AMAMAMAZING!!! Thick cut, cooking in maple syrup...and also bratwurst that came with some house-made mustard.

The price was no cheap, but also not crazy expensive.  Definitely a special occasion or a great date spot and i'll definitely be going back.  Enjoy the photos and happy holidays everyoneee!

 Live your bliss
