Society Dining Lounge Opens with its First VIP Event
Nine months ago, the seeds of an idea for a new restaurant began to develop after Emad Yacoub The Glowbal Collection Management Team returned from an R D trip, inspired by the unexpected elements that they had witnessed in various venues around Las Vegas. Was Vancouver ready for this? This was a question that had to be asked in regards to a city well-known for being contemporary casual.
The challenge then came in introducing such a novel concept to a city so nonchalant in style and attitude. In the building of the brand for Society, the idea of blending styles came into play a concept of opposites attract was born. After this idea solidified, came months of strategically styling the space so that an ideal mixture of diversity was achieved.
Pink chandeliers, Parisian bistro chairs, a cotton candy machine a mysterious screen wall are a few of the design elements used to combine, contrast compliment the restaurant lounge. With the design of the interior complete, attention turned to the design of the menu. Baked Mac Cheese with winter truffles and parmesan gratin, blackened Wild BC Salmon with tequila-lime dressing Classic Tomato Soup with mini grilled cheese sandwiches, are some of the menu items that stay true to Society’s soul in its mixing and mingling of ingredients. Stay tuned for the full menu, which will be released online later today.
The Society Dining Lounge begins its opening with a VIP event today, October 29th at 6:00PM, a secondary VIP event on Friday, October 30th at 6:00PM. Society will be fully open to the public on Saturday, October 31st.
