The Restaurant at Shangri-La Vancouver

"At 62 stories, it’s the tallest building in Vancouver, and has become the anchor for the city’s new high-end boutique and restaurant row along Alberni Street, thanks in part to its own restaurant, MARKET by Jean-Georges (as in Vongerichten)"

"Enjoy a meal at a restaurant or in a coffee shop/café"

"The hotel also has a Jean-Georges restaurant and a hip spa, both of which are extremely pricey and only add to the hype"

"Life at ground level is more personal: The lively bar and restaurant scene of Gastown is just a five-minute walk away, and the Holt Renfrew department store—paradise for designer shoppers—is even closer"

"MARKET, the in-house restaurant, is spearheaded by Jean-Georges Vongerichten, a world-renowned Michelin-starred chef, with a focus on seasonal, regional ingredients, particularly fresh seafood"

"This elegant upstart also brings with it international provenance in the form of celebrity chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten, whose wheelbarrow of Michelin stars helps illuminate the hotel's now-famous Market Restaurant"

"More curious than hungry, we snag a table at Shangri-La’s Market by Jean-Georges restaurant, and order the locally sourced sashimi, the rhubarb-and-lychee trifle and a glass of wine each"

"Think well-bred opulence rather than glitzy bling at this five-star retreat with the city’s most luxurious spa, and an outpost of Michelin-starred chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s Market restaurant"
