Gather your friends. Maenam’s Chef Angus An is preparing a tempting, Thai-style, New Year’s Eve feast December 31. The dinner is $60 a head for four courses served family-style. You can add their suggested wine pairings, which we generally think is a good idea when you’re dealing with a worthy establishment like Maenam. Afterall, The NYTimes thinks they deserve an international shout-out.
What’s on the menu? Fresh local seafood, intense curries, bright fruits and veg followed by refreshingly light desserts. There is a vegetarian version. We’ve put the menu below. Call to 604-730-5579 to book.
