South Surrey's tiny, fiercely good open-kitchen bistro: Chef Veen's French technique, BC farm sourcing, and a 4.7 that politely destroys every chain nearby.
Morgan Crossing, South Surrey
More infoTap exists to quietly embarrass everything within a fifteen-kilometre radius of Morgan Crossing. Chef Alistair Veen runs an open kitchen on French technique and genuine BC farm-to-table sourcing (it's a FarmFolk CityFolk partner), so the menu changes with what's actually good that week. You can watch the line cook your dinner, a surprisingly good date activity. A 4.7 in South Surrey borders on miraculous, so reserve ahead.
Reserve ahead, it's a small room that fills, and ask for a seat with a view of the open kitchen so you can watch Chef Veen's line at work. The menu changes with the season, so don't lock yourself in; ask what came in from the farms that week and follow the staff's lead. Budget close to two hours and let it be the main event of the evening.
