The 122-year-old MICHELIN Guide has awarded stars to eight restaurants in Vancouver and one restaurant in Kitsilano made the grade – AnnaLena.
Don’t be fooled by AnnaLena’s unassuming atmosphere, as dining here is a polished experience from top to bottom. Beginning with the graceful service and carrying through to the impeccably prepared dishes, this is a restaurant that aims to impress—sans the fuss. The cooking employs pitch-perfect flavor combinations lifted with modern touches, like a delicate olive-oil-poached Chinook king salmon paired with crunchy dill-marinated kohlrabi and an airy hollandaise enhanced with the subtle sweetness of koji.
Anonymous MICHELIN inspectors have been monitoring the evolution of the city’s culinary scene for a few years as they scouted for new markets to expand to.
