[VANCOUVER, CANADA] For our last meal in Canada, we wanted to end it off with a bang and I'm glad that we had it at JOEY. The food, the ambience and service were all superb.
We got a large rib-eye ($61.75) to share, and they really can do their steaks well. Although the meat was slightly chewy, it was meaty and they cooked it to perfect medium rare. The crust was smoky, and the meat was well seasoned and even richer with the herb butter on top. I was savouring this piece all the way till the end!
The Oven Roasted Cod ($28.50) was also a delight to enjoy. The cod itself was very fresh and meaty, with a slight smokiness on its edges and it had a natural sweetness. The curry poured around it was surprisingly rich without the usual spiciness. This is a good combination and we mopped the whole plate!
The Ravioli Bianco ($34.50) had just the right amount of creaminess and was savoury with the bacon bits. The prawns themselves were fresh and crisp and the ravioli had a good al dente texture with a creamy potato filling.
The Truffle Parmesan Fries ($14) was addictive and a great sharing dish! Fries were crisp, fluffy and irresistible with the generous parmesan shavings.
With good food and wine bottles at 50% off on certain days, you are bound to have a good time here! Definitely one of the top choices here in Vancouver.
