 But at least I had a great birthday meal, Richmond Station is solid. Tried the tasting menu, which consisted of:

1. Canapes: tuna with rice cracker and yuzu sauce / oysters with minced and foam jalapenos / salmon tarts / duck liver profiteroles
2. Chilled sweet corn soup (my fav!) with beurre noisette, BC sea urchin and toasted brioche
3. Poached Atlantic salmon with sea weed, mashed new potato, and dashi beurre blanc 
4. Berkshire pork belly with beets, dandelion greens and port gastrique 
5. Venison steak with braised venison pastilla, endive, and concord grapes, AND super fluffy milk bread
6. Basque cheesecake with blueberry compote and basil meringue
