Hot Dining: Tasteful Renaissance

Newly minted Lupo, housed in a remodelled 19th-century home, is a gentle reinvention of Villa del Lupo, its celebrated predecessor. Lupo 2.0 sports a more stylish feel but also retains classic features such as the open fireplace. On the menu: well-priced mains, such as succulent roast chicken or perfectly grilled lamb chops with caponata, plus a wealth of contorni (small plates). Perfect for a pre-show bite, the historic home is handy to the Queen Elizabeth Theatre and BC Place Stadium.—Tim Pawsey
