PiDGiN

If you were to take a bit from the East and a little from the West, you'd get Gastown's PiDGiN. This blend comes from having worked and travelled throughout various continents and the dishes are a reflection of that. On the menu you'll find dishes like grilled octopus with an eggplant puree, merguez oil and feta coexisting with a pork belly rice bowl that's accompanied by asian pear kimchi, bamboo and quail egg. While it can be a challenge to pull off different dishes, PiDGiN nails it. The cocktail program is not to be missed as there are many vibrant and unique pairings that are the perfect addition to your meal.
