Just off Robson, smart and sassy Corner Suite Bistro De Luxe lives up to its name with vibrant, Tiffany-blue, Louis XV-style armchairs; sexy, black, soft leather banquettes; and a bustling bar that boasts a gleaming, stainless steel Venus Century espresso machine. On the menu: variations on French classics, from Croque Madame with truffled chips to 48-hour cassoulet and a hefty fireman-size burger, in honour of Station 7 across the street. Upping the buzz in the room is The Genuine Article, an exhaustively researched cocktail list with contributions from several star shakers.—Tim Pawsey
