Wednesday April 15th 2008
Vancouver BC, Already recognized as Vancouver's leading luxury boutique
hotel the Relais & Chateaux Wedgewood Hotel & Spa just added
a little more gold to its collection.
The 18th Annual Vancouver Magazine Restaurant Awards were handed
out on Monday afternoon in downtown Vancouver and Bacchus Restaurant
& Lounge was recognized with Gold for Best Bar /Lounge, Gold
for Best Hotel Dining, Silver for Best Formal French & Finalist
in Best Last Course in Vancouver.
Critics saluted Bacchus Restaurant & Lounge as "A room
that gets better with age. Forget the Hotel Dining part. It may
be some of the best dining Vancouver has to offer, period, as supported
by its recent Relais & Chateaux designation"
Wedgewood Hotel Executive Chef Lee Parsons has solved the complexities
of serving three meals, room service and banqueting everyday of
the year. "Dinners at Bacchus are a cause to celebrate from
salmon lox pizzas in the lounge, to wild local fish and game and
the ultimate in comfort food, succulent free range organic whole
roast chicken carved tableside in Bacchus. Parsons has taken Bacchus
to the top of this category and somehow made it look easy"
For the ninth consecutive year Bacchus Bar/ Lounge was awarded the
coveted title of Best Bar & Lounge in the City.
"Bacchus Lounge continues to raise the bar with solid drinks
well served in an atmosphere where many versions of deal-making
excite the night." said one critic. Another critic suggested
that Bacchus is "the only place in Vancouver to truly unwind.
It's dark enough, comfortable enough,the tunes work well enough
and the service is excellent."
Wedgewood Hotel Owner , Eleni Skalbania, whose personal touch continues
to define Bacchus and the Wedgewood Hotel, was delighted "One
very important characteristic of a great hotel is having a place
where people can relax feel comfortable and welcome. Bacchus is
that place at the Wedgewood" Skalbania explained.
