St. Lawrence brings Provence to Vancouver this summer

St. Lawrence, Vancouver's award-winning Michelin-starred restaurant on Powell Street, is introducing a new four-course Provence-inspired Table d'Hôte menu this June, guided by seasonality and local sourcing.

The menu, available Tuesdays to Sundays from 5 p.m., draws from the celebrated cuisine of southeastern France—a region defined by vibrant vegetables, olive oil, and Mediterranean restraint. Head Chef and Owner J-C Poirier is anchoring the summer offering to local providers and seasonal availability, meaning the specific dishes will shift with what's at peak ripeness in BC.

The move signals the restaurant's approach to summer dining: rather than chasing novelty, deepening the conversation with a single region's culinary logic. Provence is known for simplicity elevated—tomatoes, herbs, fish, olive oil used with precision, not fuss. That philosophy aligns with what St. Lawrence has been building: fine dining that tastes like restraint, not spectacle.

For anyone who's been waiting for an excuse to book St. Lawrence, the summer menu offers a defined entry point—a fixed four-course journey rather than open-ended tasting. Powell Street just got more interesting.
