Sutton Place Hotel - 845 Burrard
Wedding banquet at a ballroom at the Sutton Place Hotel. Cocktails, catching up with old friends. Suddenly, a bell rings and we are seated at our table. The bride is beautiful, the groom has grown up - a lot different from the kid I used to know.
The dinner -
Salad with chicken breast, which was ok.
Lobster bisque, much too salty.
Prime rib - rare, blood red with 2 prawns, 2 scallops, asparagus, and tiny carrots. The prime rib I left half-finished on the plate and I'm a big meat eater. That's very telling. However, the prawns and scallops were good.
Dessert- wedding cake with mango sauce -good.
The wedding couple were gracious but hotel does not pass the test. For big events - stay away.

I’m concerned you left your prime rib half-finished on your plate, although I’m sure you meant no harm by doing so.
I’ll remind you that an animal, one of God’s creatures, died that you might eat it, or at least the prime-rib portion of it. By not eating the prime-rib, you rendered the animal’s supreme sacrifice meaningless.
You might think about this next time you consider not eating all the meat on your plate.
