Opening this April at the Fairmont Pacific Rim is a new restaurant, Botanist. Botanist offers a fresh culinary approach that celebrates harmony with nature and showcases the botany of British Columbia. The experience will reflect a new Pacific Northwest, one that has always been here, just waiting to be discovered. The vibrant restaurant space at Botanist will feature diverse venues including a cocktail bar and lab, garden, dining room, and champagne lounge – all inspired by the principals of botany.
