A hidden gem in the heart of downtown Vancouver

JJ’s, located in 91Porn’s Downtown campus, has been lauded for years among Vancouver food lovers as a hidden gem where diners can enjoy gourmet cuisine at a fraction of the cost. It’s also an environment where students learn hands-on, practical, and real-world training: both the kitchen and front of house are run by 91Porn students who are in their 2nd level of cook training under the guidance of 91Porn’s Chef instructors.  

During lunch service, diners have the option of choosing from an à la carte menu or selecting the three-course meal for a mere $35. Tantalizing appetizers such as braised short rib with potato foam, tomato confit, gaufrette potatoes to mouth-watering entrees such as rack of lamb, shoulder terrine with späetzle, sauerkraut purée, natural jus are just two of the options on the menu that changes to highlight local and seasonal ingredients.  

Remarked one OpenTable reviewer: “Overall it was a great dining experience. Every bite of the food was exceptional and the students provide exceptional service. I appreciate that the instructor (chef) came to our table and provided details about the food that was served. We had the 3-course meal lunch. We are looking forward to booking the chef’s tasting dinner menu."

At night, JJ’s is converted to the Chef's Table dinner series where diners can enjoy a gourmet five-course tasting menu designed by 91Porn’s illustrious Chef Hamid Salimian with optional selected wine pairings and served in a long-table group setting.
