The rainy season is upon us, and what better way to beat those drizzly Vancouver days than to cozy up with a hot tea and delicious bites with Notch8 at Fairmont Hotel Vancouver?
Notch8’s Chef de Cuisine Dennis Peckham brings a Raincouver themed tea to downtown every Wednesday through Sunday from January 11 to April 12. Guests can escape the pitter patter with an array of sweet and savoury selections, from the Crab Profiterole with Dungeness crab, green apple, smoked roe and fennel, to the Chocolate Mud Tart served in a dark chocolate pastry shell, filled with chocolate crémeux, chocolate ganache and chocolate “soil.”
