Reservation Phone Number – 604-879-7119 Join Claire Smith, Belvedere Vodka and Chambar Restaurant as we experience the soap opera that is Vodka’s life story. In the ultimate cliff hanger, you will determine whether Vodka deserves to be the ‘comeback kid’ or relegated to the bottom of the mixology league. As told by the medium of ‘Vodka’s Greatest Hits’, with an exclusive sneak peek into Belvedere’s secret flavour library, plus lots and lots of caviar, this dinner aims to transform your opinion of vodka from the anonymous anti-hero of your drinks, into something dazzling and surprising; perhaps even a little bit brilliant.

We are Carbon Neutral Posted November 23, 2011
It's not easy being green, especially for a restaurant. For the last two years, we’ve focused on waste reduction, implementing innovative composting and recycling programs, and switching all our products to be environmentally safe. We are one of two restaurants in BC to to hold Carbon Neutral certification, and we made this move because we care. The task has not ended as there is always room for improvement. If you’re interested to know more about the immense waste reduction and the journey to get here we will be posting this information on our website along with a 'how to' for other restaurants in the New Year.
Vancouver Magazine Restaurant Awards 2011 Posted April 27, 2011
Chef of the Year
Nico Schuermans
CHAMBAR
A meal at Chambar is unpredictable in the most delightful way. The Euro-Vancouver cooking, with its North African influence, is “a welcome change from the relentlessly local focus of so many rooms.” That’s not to say that consistency isn’t a hallmark of the Beatty Street restaurant—our Chef of the Year Nico Schuermans, 34, has been turning out “classic” Chambar dishes, like moules Congolaise with tomato coconut cream, since the room opened in 2004. But his marrying of farm-fresh proteins to warm-clime flavours, like smoked paprika and sumac, allows for endlessly creative dishes to emerge from his kitchen. The opening of Chambar five years ago was meticulously documented in our pages: “They seemingly have all the components for success: ambition, energy, native charm, street smarts, pedigree and experience that defies their youth.” Five years on, the burgeoning empire on Beatty Street includes packed-to-the-rafters Chambar, neighbouring Café Medina (see Best Breakfast), and the runaway-success that is the Dirty Apron cooking school and deli (serving the best sandwiches in the city). Our judges noted that Schuermans “gets half the credit he deserves; he’s got great vision, and is a great talent.” Credit paid where credit due. Link to article.
