(VANCOUVER, BC) – Feeling Crabby? Indulge your crabbiness with a three-course menu built around our fresh and local BC Dungeness Crab. For three weeks only, starting Tuesday, June 9th, Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts’ soon-to-be graduating class will be cracking, shelling and cooking in the kitchen for their BC Dungeness Excrabaganza Menu.

The Excrabaganza is available for lunch and dinner in the marina-view restaurant at Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts. For $38 per person (excluding taxes and gratuities) crab lovers can choose from a number of dishes on our three-course menu including crab bisque, crab cakes, wild sockeye salmon with crab hollandaise. You can read the detailed menu on their website at www.picachef.com

This limited time menu is only offered on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays alongside our regular weekly restaurant menu currently featuring BC Spot Prawns (so crabby people can still bring along their not-so-crabby dining companions).

Reservations are highly recommended and available by telephone at 604.734.4488 or online at www.picachef.com (special discount and promotional coupons are not accepted).
