The Vanilla Pod Restaurant - Penticton

We had a birthday dinner reservation at Poplar Grove for two in early October and could not have been more pleased.

Rose made from Malbec and Syrah was goodWe ordered the ahi Tina salad and chick pea salad along with paella which we shared.

Went there with a large group of friendsHalf of us went because of a Groupon, Half of us went to tag along and paid full price.

We have dined at the VP for both lunch and dinner and have had really great experiences both times. The food is excellent and the service terrific. The view is A1 and worth the visit - even if you are simply having a glass of the Poplar Grove wine. It's not inexpensive however, so expect to spend some money on this meal.

We had dinner at the Vanilla Pod, during the period of time when the forest fires were creating a blanket of cloud of smoke over the lake, reducing long distance visibility. We enjoyed our meal, the halibut main course with oyster mushroom broth and salmon with potato salad were very good. The service was good too.
