Granville Island plays host to a wealth of great flavours.
1. Edible BC This tiny spot in the Public Market offers a bounty of local products and chef-led tours, plus regional recipes in The British Columbia Seasonal Cookbook (Lone Pine Publishing; $19.95), available in the store.
2. Backstage Lounge This waterside bar at the Arts Club lures play-goers and hops-lovers alike.
3. Artisan Sakemaker Canada’s first artisanal sake maker produces the hand-pressed elixir, including Osake, the country’s first premium Junmai.
4. Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts Respected culinary school under the bridge at the island’s entrance is home to a shoreside, student-run restaurant.
5. Dockside The island’s “other” brewery serves well-crafted suds and local fare on its creekside patio.
