R+D KITCHEN BY WHITE SPOT OPENS MAY 10 AT THE AMAZING BRENTWOOD

B.C.'s Most Iconic Restaurant Brand Honours Past and Embraces Future with New Concept


Vancouver, BC, May 04, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- White Spot takes fresh thinking to a new level on Tuesday, May 10, when it opens its new concept restaurant, R+D Kitchen by White Spot, at The Amazing Brentwood.

The next evolution of White Spot’s legacy, R+D Kitchen offers lunch, happy hour, dinner, and weekend brunch menus that include favourite White Spot classics as well as a changing roster of new 'test' dishes created by White Spot Executive Chef James Kennedy CCC and the R+D Culinary Team. As well as the opportunity to sample dishes under consideration for future White Spot menus, guests can get a glimpse of the innovation in action, through full-size windows running the length of the wall between the dining room and kitchen.
 
"We’re so proud of our history,” says White Spot President Warren Erhart. “But it’s also incredibly exciting to be launching something that demonstrates the next chapter of the White Spot story. We believe White Spot fans will love being part of the creative process at R+D Kitchen.”
 
The Space
The full-service restaurant, lounge and bar was designed by Joy Roque, Head of Design and Construction for White Spot. The space features neutral hues and understated sophistication that complement the refined design found in Tables, The Amazing Brentwood’s popular new food court. The restaurant also features the Kitchen Window, to serve shoppers stopping by for a quick and casual take-out bite.
 
The Food
Working with ingredients from local farmers and growers, Executive Chef James Kennedy and the Culinary Team have developed menus for lunch, happy hour, dinner, and weekend brunch that make use of contemporary culinary methods and flavours, and include delicious vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options. Diners can dig into a Truffled Mushroom Wagyu Burger, or opt for a Harissa Cauliflower SteakNeapolitan-style Pizza, or even Crispy Skin Arctic Char, served with rainbow carrots, roasted baby potatoes and basil hollandaise. Weekend brunch features a range of bennys including a Prawn & Bacon Benny and BBQ Beef Brisket, along with waffles in both sweet and savoury preparations.
 
The Drinks
Handcrafted exclusively for R+D Kitchen by White Spot, the beverage menu features cocktails made by Vancouver local and 2017 World Class Global Bartender of the Year Kaitlyn Stewart. The menu features sophisticated sips, like a Hugo Spritz, Wildberry Gin Mule with wildberry slush, or the Aperol forward Italian Greyhound. Stewart has also designed a selection of zero-proof libations featuring alcohol-free spirits, offered alongside rotating taps of local craft beer, local cider plus a list of carefully curated 100% B.C. VQA wines, and White Spot’s famous hand-scooped milkshakes.
