Though the forecast might be calling for rain all weekend (here’s hoping that’s not true!), don’t let a bit of drizzle dampen your spirits and keep you indoors. Instead, check out our lineup of weekend events and offerings and load up the next few days ahead.
The Ramen Butcher
Save room in your belly this weekend ’cause you’ll want to pop by and taste your way through the menu at The Ramen Butcher, which just opened to popular buzz. They’ve got a tantalizing mix of specialty house-made ramen steeped high in a steaming bowl of veg, chicken, or pork broth. Now that sounds like the perfect fix for a dreary winter night to us.
Vancouver Hot Chocolate Festival
Use this weekend to work on your sugar-high and check out some of this year’s participating cafes as part of the Vancouver Hot Chocolate Festival. With more than 25 different chocolate makers and artisans serving up their very own (and incredibly unique) take on this sweet wintery treat, you’ve got at least 60 to choose from.
Vancouver TheatreSports™ League (VTSL)
This weekend it’s all about the laughs – that’s if you make your way down to Vancouver TheatreSports™ League (VTSL) and their 27th Annual Massacre Improv Festival (on until February 15). Catch competing comedians from across North America as they tackle a variety of topics and have the audience in stitches.
Perogy Night
This Friday offers up the perfect (and in our books, tastiest) reason to ditch the kitchen. That’s right… it’s Perogy Night at the Holy Trinity Ukrainian Orthodox Cathedral once again! So be sure to grab a pocket full of change – that’s all you’ll need – and head down with your appetite. Pile your plate high and tuck into handmade perogies, sausages, cabbage rolls, and something sweet for dessert.
Taboo Revue Burlesque Variety Show
Let loose and let a touch of the risqué into your life this Saturday by hitting up the Taboo Revue Burlesque Variety Show. Back by popular demand, this award-winning theatre/dance company is back with a scandalously good show featuring a cast that includes some of Canada’s top performers. They’ve got a licensed bar, general admission, and room for 200 – so don’t miss out on this entertaining spectacle.
