2013 Dine Out Vancouver Festival food tour at Black & Blue and Society Dining Lounge from The Glowbal Collection on Alberni Street on January 14, 2013.

After Coast, we tried the newly heralded Glowbal signature steakhouse for their Dine Out set menu menu offerings.

I was slightly disappointed by the blue ribbon strip loin roast as just subpar all around and not up to Black & Blue's usual standard and reputation.

However, their pan roasted salmon (with parsnip puree and root vegetable chips) was very good and quite delicious.The truffled potato leek soup was a rich, tasty liquid libation and a fine starter. I'd also recommend the devilishly delectable creamed corn with crispy jalapeños as a add on treat.

Our base was the blue ribbon cottage pie (with salted ground beef, peas, carrots, and baked parmesan mashed potatoes) serving as quite a decadent, rich meal. It was creamy and mighty filling. I quite enjoyed the menu at Black & Blue and would recommend the soup along with the cottage pie or salmon.

Last, we hit up Society Dining Lounge to sample a few dessert offerings from several Glowbal establishments. The trio of sticky toffee pudding, mini sugar donuts, and chocolate peanut butter rice crispy squares were very sweet and a nice capper.
