How to Score Scandinave Spa Whistler Deals & Discounts

November 4, 2019 by foodgressing Leave a Comment

Scandinave Spa Whistler is Whistler’s top spa where guests can escape to a haven of peace and tranquility, just a few minutes north of Whistler Village. Below are a few ways to score some deals and discounts on your next visit to Scandinave Spa Whistler.

What is Hydrotherapy?

At Scandinave Spa Whistler, you can experience the age-old Finnish tradition of hydrotherapy and its energizing and relaxing benefits.

The process involves three stages and repeated cycles are encouraged.

First, you start with heating up the body in a hot installation (hot bath, Finish Sauna, wood-burning sauna, or steam bath) to help release the body’s negative energy.

Then move into a cold installation (Nordic waterfall, Nordic Shower, or cold plunge bath) to release endorphins and flush out toxins. The final step is to simply relax to allow the heart rate to stabilize and body to rest.

Scandinave Spa Whistler Amenities

The 25,000-square-foot outdoor nature spa has solariums, hammocks, outdoor fireplaces and a yoga studio to help you find inner stillness.

Silence is a source of great strength so no cell phones are allowed and talking is discouraged. After your time at Scandinave Spa, you will most certainly feel refreshed and rejuvenated.

For a complete experience, book a massage to invigorate your aching muscles. I have personally enjoyed a few massages at Scandinave Spa Whistler, and the experience is heavenly!

2. Costco Wayspa Gift Certificates (25% off)

Did you know that Scandinave Spa Whistler is a WaySpa partner? Costco also sells WaySpa gift certificates at the price of $74.99 for two $50 gift certificates.

WaySpa e-certificates provide access to some of Canada’s finest and most luxurious spas.

3. Wayspa Gift Certificates (10% – 22% off)

You can also purchase Wayspa gift certificates directly from their website. They tend to offer discounts throughout the year especially in time for special holidays like Mother’s Day and Black Friday.

You can receive notification of these offers by subscribing to their newsletter. I have personally seen offers ranging from 10% to 22% off. Scandinave Spa Whistler is listed as a partner of Wayspa here.

You can also enjoy 18% off Wayspa Gift using this link until November 30, 2019.

Things to Do in Langley: Dine, Shop, See, Drink

October 31, 2019 by foodgressing Leave a Comment

Last week, I spent a day with Tourism Langley to explore and learn about what the charming town has to offer. From visiting restaurants, lovely boutiques and historical sites to tastings at a winery and craft distillery, here’s a few worthy reasons to visit Langley.

Things to Do in Langley: Dine, Shop, See, Drink

Start the Day at Saba

We fueled up for our day of exploring the town at the charming Saba Cafe. They’re a lovely, family-run bistro with a menu bursting with flavours inspired by the Middle East and the Mediterranean.

As we walked through the door, we were meet with the pleasant smells of fresh baked goods. The display case featured a tantalizing range of pastries like galettes, quiches, scones and more.

We felt nourished after enjoying breakfast delights like Classic Farm House Breakfasts, Breakfast Board, and Veggie Breakfast Skillet and House-made Challah French Toast.

Birthplace of BC: Fort Langley National Historic Site

We toured the Fort Langley National Historic Site where the Hudson Bay Company had a fur trading post 150 years ago. Among the rough-hewn timber buildings, we saw glimpses of the pioneer way of life.

We also stopped by lelem cafe, a First Nations owned and operated cafe that delivers authentic flavours supported by local ingredients.

SHOPPING IS ALWAYS A GOOD IDEA

The Village of Fort Langley exudes such old-world charm and there you’ll find unique shops and boutiques where you can indulge in some serious shopping. There are no franchises here, just independent locally owned stores offering organic and vegan goods, beautiful home decor, cute clothing boutiques and more. We went from shop to shop and found some fun finds for this fall season.

We visited the lovely Floralista in Fort Langley – a full-service flower studio that offers arrangements but also holds events and workshops.

MODERN FINE DINING

Fortitude Restaurant by Chef Romy Prasad (formerly of CinCin in Vancouver and Il Caminetto in Whistler) offers a modern fine dining experience in the heart of Fort Langley.

I enjoyed the Buddha Bowl (brown rice, avocado, red cabbage, sweet potato, hemp seeds, grilled portobello) which was light and nourishing.

However, the Fortitude Burger (where the in-house ground beef patty is cooked medium) was definitely a favourite at our table. I had just a tasting of it and really wanted the entire burger for myself.

Other dishes enjoyed during the lunch include the seafood risotto, turkey sandwich and pumpkin pie.

Langley Libations

Did you know Langley is home to ten wineries? Since 2009, Backyard Vineyards has been producing award-winning varietals, blended, and bubbly wines from 100% BC grapes grown o-site and complemented with fruit from the Fraser Valley and South Okanagan.

Langley is also home to the first craft distillery in the Fraser Valley: Roots and Wings. This charming family-owned and operated distillery offers a collection of farm-to-table spirits includes vodka, whiskey, and gin that can be enjoyed on their own or in your favourite craft cocktails and mixed drinks.

Row Fourteen at Klippers Organics: Lunch Experience [Review]

October 27, 2019 by foodgressing Leave a Comment

Cuisine from the Earth, The Way Nature Intended

When we ventured to the Okanagan earlier this month, I made it a point to visit the newly opened and buzzworthy Row Fourteen restaurant in Cawston, BC.

Row Fourteen: Farm-To-Table Cuisine

Row Fourteen is a new organic farm-to-table restaurant owned and operated by Klippers Organics, a certified organic farm in Cawston.

If you love farm-to-table cuisine, it doesn’t get any closer than this. With the farm just steps away, the organic fruits and vegetables are harvested at peak ripeness, freshness, taste and nutritional value and then onto your table.

You can find Klipper’s organic produce at Vancouver Farm’s Markets and they sell to restaurants across the Lower Mainland as well.

Untangled Cider

Aside from the farm and the restaurant, the Klippers site also features a third-concept: Untangled Cider. The space features a tasting area where visitors can try and purchase craft ciders.

Wood-burning stove

Row Fourteen’s cuisine can be described as rustic, wholesome and comforting. At the back of the restaurant, you will find an open concept kitchen with a wood-burning stove where cooking is done. It was interesting to see the chefs use a more traditional way of cooking.

Row Fourteen Menu

The menu at Row Fourteen changes depending on what is available. The farm’s organic produce seem to take center stage for much of the menu but you’ll also find freshly baked bread onsite as well as meat-centric dishes.

What We Tried

For our lunch feast, we had theWhole Wheat Farmer’s bread ($12); Harvest Vegetables ($14); Ancient Grains ($14); Dry-Aged Cheeseburger featuring Two Rivers Meats ($19); and Venison Sausage ($14).

We enjoyed a flavourful, whole loaf of Whole Wheat Farmer’s Bread baked on-site. It came with fermented chili charred green onion butter. The bread was delicious on its own but we used it to mop up the tasty celeriac puree from the venison sausage dish.

The Ancient Grains featuring chanterelles, squash, toasted sunflower & pumpkin seeds felt very nourishing.

The Harvest Vegetables were so flavourful and fresh being picked from the harvest at the peak time.

As a fan of Two Rivers Meats, I enjoyed the flavourful Dry-Aged Cheeseburger. The warm potato salad was a perfect complement where the potato flavour was prominent. Forget boring potato salads where the potatoes lack flavour and the overall taste is primarily of heavy mayo, onions and so forth.

The Venison Sausage was a bit sweet and smoky and complemented by oh-so-good celeriac puree, grilled apple, and parsley garlic sauce.

To wash it down, we had the “Untangled” cider which was crisp and dry.

Overall Impression of Row Fourteen

We left our meal from Row Fourteen feeling absolutely nourished by good, real food. Prices and portions were fairly valued. If you are visiting the Okanagan, I would recommend visiting Row Fourteen for a real farm-to-table dining experience. Rating: 5/5

The city of Cawston isn’t much of a tourist destination being a producer town so visiting Row Fourteen would be on the way during your travels in the Okanagan. The nearest tourist-friendly place to stay would be Osoyoos which is about 45 minutes away.
