My last Ent. book meal was a couple weeks ago at Rossini's in Gastown. Thought, what the heck, let's go; the last few times I was there was not bad, plus they've got live Jazz. We got there at around 7 Sunday. There was a man playing the keyboard. Our waitress handed us the menu and directed our attention to Big Al's features. "Big Al"? I thought he owned a restaurant on Rupert & 1st. I went there many years ago and had a good lunch there. A great character, and he'd step out of his kitchen once in a while to check on his customers. He's a pretty good chef, I'd think. So, I decided to order the chicken and shrimp jambalaya. Pretty spicy, and and good amount of shrimp. mmm.. my gf had a seafood sauce with her pasta. it was a bit on the overdone side for our tastes, but the sauce was good, fresh. Overall it was better than the last time I was there, and I think it had a lot to do with Big Al. Check it out if you have the chance.
