This year may not have brought Vancouver over 100 new eateries, as 2007 did, but if quality trumps quantity, this was another stellar 12-month period for the city’s eating-out scene, with dozens of new arrivals making a well-deserved splash. Ranked one through 10 in order of awesomeness, here are my picks for 2008’s best new restaurants...
7. VOYA
(1177 Melville, 604-639-VOYA, VoyaRestaurant.com)
The opening of the dark and sexy Voya, in the Loden Hotel, marked the long-anticipated return of Marc-Andre Choquette (former chef de cuisine at Lumiere) after a year-long absence from our restaurant scene. Widely acknowledged in trade circles as one of the best chef-arbiters of French-Asian cuisine, Choquette tabled an opening menu that impressed with its mix of brashness and subtlety, and totally killed on the palate. Cocktails by Jay Jones show an outstanding understanding of booze alchemy.
