The Oakwood is a Canadian Bistro in Kitsilano serving a menu of innovative dishes and local brews on tap.
One thing that Homer Simpson and I have in common is our love of pork. When I found out that the Oakwood was out of pork crackling last night, I was a little disappointed. Luckily, a couple pieces are included in their maple pork belly dish which was ridiculously good. I will have dreams about the combination of melt in your mouth pork belly, apple puree and jicima salad.
For a main, I had a burger with side salad probably out of guilt from the last dish. When I saw the burger had sprouts on it, I have to admit I was a little concerned. But it really worked well on the burger and it was one of the better burgers I have ever had. My dining partner had the striploin steak which was cooked perfectly and very tasty. We finished with the baked apple dumpling that is accompanied with vanilla ice cream; a simple dish but perfect combination and a great finish to an outstanding meal.
The restaurant was busy all night and its easy to understand why: excellent food that is reasonably priced and made with quality ingredients, a fantastic beer selection and a cozy environment.
I will definitely return to the Oakwood. Next time I want to try the poutine covered with brisket.
