Summer Menu Tasting at Blue Canoe

I was into Blue Canoe Restaurant in Steveston to taste their Summer Menu last week, Chef  Kylo Hoy presented me and my friend Gio with a selection some of their new dishes.

Watermelon Soup

First Dish was the chilled Watermelon Soup with crab and garlic, dungeness crab

Roasted Chicken Flatbread

Second Dish was the Roasted Chicken Flatbread pesto, bocconcini, tomato, arugula

West Coast Niçoise Salad

Third Dish was the West Coast Niçoise Salad albacore tuna, salmon

Blue Canoe Chilled Seafood Platter

Fourth Dish was the Blue Canoe Chilled Seafood Platter (small) salmon in a jar, ginger tuna, oysters, crab claws

Pistachio Cheesecake

Fifth Dish was the Pistachio Cheesecake topped with lavender sour cream and goose berries

 

Bar Manager Vince Mabanta paired up some of the savoury dishes with a couple of American style beers the Gordon Biersch Märzen as well as the Deschute Mirror Pond Pale Ale. I loved the light, colourful and refreshing theme of the summer menu that the chefs have created; my favourite dishes were all of the savouries, sad to say I wasn’t a fan of the cheesecake dessert.

I have dined at Blue Canoe on a couple of previous occasions, see my previous visit here.
