Where to Dine Outside in Vancouver
"This neighborhood hangout in Hazel Dell recently added tenting and heaters to the outdoor patio, creating a comfortable spot to sip beer and sample food from the cluster of food carts outside the brewery. Beer choices range from a crisp, clear Czech style pilsner called The Peoples Pilsner, and several juicy hazy IPAs, to dark brews like bold, brown malt infused Jp’s Meetinghouse Brown Ale. One of the several nearby food trucks, The Hungry Sasquatch, offers Neapolitan-inspired pies with a crust made of their own mix of wild yeast sourdough starter and organic whole-wheat flour. The Octo-squatch is made by covering this carefully formulated crust with pesto, smoked mozzarella, and tender octopus rings, baked at 800 degrees in a wood-fire oven. After it’s cooked, ghost pepper flakes are sprinkled on top for an added kick." - Rachel Pinsky
