Got a hankering for a hearty meal? The Heights neighbourhood in Burnaby really has it all — from sushi to pasta to ice cream, you name it.
A special 10-day dining event “Crave the Heights” will be kicking off later this month, giving you the chance to explore the diverse food scene in the neighbourhood.
From Aug. 18 to 27, foodies from Burnaby and beyond, can walk along the Burnaby Heights to enjoy the diverse culinary scene, devour limited-edition menu items, drink features and desserts. And don’t forget, while you’re there, your local bands will be on-site to soothe your ears with live music and entertainment.
This year’s lineup features Gabriel Mark Hasselbach, LJ Mounteney and Undercover, Marlin Ramazzini and Salsa Beat, and Mike Van Eyes and Marco Ibarra on select days at Heights Fountain Square and Tramonto Atrium. Visit the event’s website for the full schedule.
