A bit of along schpeal, but I had to do it....(my copy of a post on Google)...
LaTerrazza, Yaletown "quintessential Italian fine-dining experience" ,
to celebrate the 41st anniversary of our meeting and shared it with our neighbors/friends. Diane was our great server..friendly and knowledgeable and paced our dinner nicely. We started with cocktails, chose our wines and finally decided on what to eat. An interesting menu made deciding a little tricky because it all sounded so good. We finally made our decisions. My wife started with the Beef Tartare which she said was fabulous, Mary had the Wedge Salad and she said it was delicious..lots of Gorgonzola and fresh iceberg lettuce..and we two men had the Melanzane/Eggplant Parmesan. It was very very good. Reminded me of my Nonna's . For entres, my wife had the Duck Carbonara which was excellent, one of the best she's ever had, Mary had the Prawn Taglieri Pasta, Ron had the Strozzapreti Bolognese and I had my favorite, the Vongole....ALL were Delicious..Flavorful, cooked to perfection and presented perfectly...it was a culinary feast and superb experience. Of course, appropriate wine to accommodate the meal. We were quite content when finished so we 3 only had cappuccinos, Ron had tea and couldn't help himself and had the La Creazione/Cheese cake...not you traditional cheesecake. This one was light and delicate. I had some of his and it was delicious. So..we had a very successful experience and dinner out on the town..and a wonderful way to celebrate. I/we highly recommend LaTerrazza. Definitely 5 Star tonight from greeting upon arrival to finish.
Thank you all for a wonderful experience."
.
It was a wonderful evening...

Those look amazing. We hit a local Mexican meat market here in town yesterday that also has a diner attached to it. My wife got the quesa birria tacos and I got an al pastor plate. Mine was overcooked but hers was great. We'll go back and I'll get the tacos or carnitas. The meat market has pre-seasoned meats, so we'll probably grab some of those too and make tacos at home.

Never smoked a Turkey before but did a practice run with a small 8 pounder before Thanksgiving. I think it came out pretty good.
