A Taste of the Garden Series
Shaughnessy Restaurant
Summer 2021
Shaughnessy Restaurant and VanDusen Botanical Garden have teamed up to offer 'A Taste of the Garden Series' this summer. You’ve used your senses to capture the sights, scents, textures and sounds of the Garden, but now, you can have a taste of it too!
Chef Matthew Phillip will be creating dishes utilizing fresh ingredients from VanDusen’s Veggie Garden. From appetizers to desserts, produce, botanicals and herbs will be highlighted to inspire what local, urban, sustainable cuisine is all about. A rotating menu with featured seasonal dishes will be available all summer long.
Shaughnessy Restaurant will be making a donation to the Vancouver Neighbourhood Food Network (VNFN) in exchange for the produce grown at VanDusen Botanical Garden.
Join us until September to experience 'A Taste of the Garden'!
