Louis Gervais Fine Foods And Catering

This evening I drove all the way to North Vancouver for a long table meal at “Louis Gervais'” cafe and catering workspace; and it was worth the effort. Here I got to learn a little more about the Chef behind the business. How he originally hails from Montreal, and has accumulated over 40 years of experience. He moved to Vancouver when he was 20 to help open the “Wedgewood Hotel” as an executive sous chef. And rest of his resume was as impressive, working in several well known kitchens and winning a few culinary competitions here and there.

Louis is great! They've got a great selection and amazing salads. Also home to one of my favorite sandwiches...the mushroom and goat cheese panini.

I really enjoyed my experience at this restaurant. I ordered a roast beef sandwich, salad, and Americano coffee, which came to a total of $15 after tax. The flavor of the food was amazing, and I must say it was one of the best sandwiches I have ever had. I'm glad I decided to visit!

Wedding Catering. Louis Gervais catered our wedding of about 50 people this past December (2011). It was FANTASTIC! <br/ <br/ We had our wedding at my parents house and we were nervous about fitting everyone in and making sure that Louis' staff had the space they needed without disturbing our guests. Heather, the coordinator, made everything perfect and it gave us great peace of mind to have her helping us. She helped us plan the menu, arranged the table and chair rentals, organized the serving staff and made sure everything was on schedule. She made everything a breeze. Everyone fit comfortably for dining and the kitchen staff were so quiet even though they were serving up all the food hot and fast. As soon as dinner was done the staff had all the tables and chairs up and out of the way for dancing. The food was spectacular! From the appetizers to the dessert it was so good. Everyone especially loved the beet cubes and the veggie risotto. <br/ <br/ I cannot recommend Louis Gervais, his awesome food and staff enough!

I absolutely adore the pesto mayo! My sister and I visited Spa Utopia in North Vancouver last weekend and decided to stop by a charming cafe with big red umbrellas and cute tables outside. We were pleasantly surprised to find out it was actually a catering company with chefs working in an open kitchen. We tried a few items and they were all delicious - the savory scone was the best I've ever had, the Roasted Chicken sandwich with pesto mayo on a baguette was amazing, and the homemade sea salted potato chips were fantastic. The organic, fair trade espresso was unexpected and delicious. This hidden gem is definitely worth a return visit.
