Il Giardino - The Who's Who of Vancouver

Il Giardino has to be one of my favourite restaurants in Vancouver, hands down. It's especially lovely in the summer when you can sit on the terrace. It's like you're not even in Vancouver anymore. I like to pretend I'm in a small seaside town in Italy, but that's just...
