The much-awaited Voya Restaurant and Lounge will open its doors October 18, to coincide with the unveiling of Loden Vancouver by Los Angeles-based Kor Hotel Group.
The intimate 80-seat restaurant and lounge will offer Vancouver an innovative array of inaugural menu items, remarkable décor and the enthusiastic welcome and hospitality of Vancouver’s most-energized culinary team.
Voya is Loden Vancouver’s atmospheric lobby-level dining and drinking destination. There is a dramatic fireplace with zebra onyx which becomes a focal point in the main restaurant and lounge space. Divided into intimate areas - a lounge with low chairs and tables; a central dramatic bar; a posh dining area flanked by sumptuous banquettes; a private room that calls for special parties, Voya is set to become a major social centre and the heart of the Loden experience.Voya’s design and décor provide a beautiful canvas for Executive Chef Choquette, known locally for his outstanding work as Executive Chef at the Relais Gourmand, award-winning Lumiere restaurant. Local goods that are inventively and passionately prepared are his inspiration in the inaugural menu.
Here is a preview of Voya’s menu…
Lunch: Voya delights with dishes like pan seared halibut, olive oil crushed potato balsamic braised cippolinni onions, basil. It also dares diners with dishes including sesame crusted frog’s legs with pickled cucumber, chili and garlic as a starter.
Evening-time, guests are encouraged to share. Such selections include citrus-soy glazed salmon with pak choy and cashews; stuffed Cornish hen with jus roti; and Atlantic lobster with asparagus and Riesling. Highlights of the main dishes include beef strip loin and oxtail with fingerling potatoes; quail with pumpernickel honey and Indonesian pepper; and sablefish in smoked paprika broth with scallop cappelletti.
Weekend brunch at Voya will feature cheery, healthful selections such as cottage cheese and seasonal fruit with coconut foam and pistachio powder or the Voya smoothie, a cure-all concoction of coconut milk, peanut butter, orange blossom honey, banana and vanilla sorbet. More decadent dishes climax with the Voya omelet of cultivated and wild mushrooms, cave-aged gruyere and a strawberry cherry tomato salad.
Voya Restaurant and Lounge at Loden Vancouver provides an experience evocative of the word ‘voyage.’ Voya’s philosophy maintains that food can be a trip unto itself - whisking the diner to new domains through brilliant taste, presentation and texture. Voya’s signature dishes include internationally fused selections built around the freshest, British Columbia harvests. Voya is a member of the Green Table and Ocean Wise sustainable programs and uses an on-premise filtered water system.
