Truffles Fine Foods Cafe

Truffles Fine Foods started out as a catering company for the Vancouver film scene.  They soon gained a solid reputation for being able to handle the demanding and high-pressure requirements of catering to movie sets and film stars.  Truffles Fine Foods expanded to serving at private events like weddings and then proceededto  opening cafes under their own name.  They currently have three cafes in Vancouver: Van Dusen Gardens, Downtown Vancouver, and New Westminster.

I had sampled some of Truffles Fine Foods’ eats at the Xpocity event last year.  I absolutely adore lemon meringue tarts and Truffles’s version is absolutely delicious with a light and buttery crust.

Recently, fellow food blogger, David, and I met up for coffee.  We first headed to Breka Bakery on Davie but found all tables to be occupied.  Proceeding along Davie, we stumbled upon Truffles Fine Foods.  Seeing that it was not very busy, we decided to go in.

The cafe’s interior is spacious, clean, modern and inviting.  I love the cozy banquette seating. On one of their walls, they have posted the names of Hollywood stars that they have served including Neil Young, Zac Efron and Reese Witherspoon.

On their menu are soups, salads, sandwiches, sweet treats and coffee by JJ Bean.  I did notice that their selection of food on display appeared a lot smaller than Breka.  For  example, Breka had a greater number of cake slices.

We got our coffees and shared three truffles.  The truffles were 3 for $5 and came in chocolate, white chocolate and hazelnut.  I honestly don’t think I’ve had a truffle with a coffee at a cafe, but it was tasty.  It’s a nice sweet treat if you don’t want to consume a large dessert.

On a separate visit, I decided to have another one of their tarts.  They sell them individually for $2.50 and I got a fruit tart with strawberry, raspberry and blackberry.  I went near closing time and the tart had probably had been sitting in the display for a while.  The crust was a soft and not as crunchy as I would like.

Overall Impression of Truffles Fine Foods

Truffle Fine Foods certainly has a reputation for being an excellent caterer.  I like that their Davie cafe is cozy which makes it a great place to for a coffee date.  Their selection of food appears to be smaller than neighbouring cafe, Breka.  Rating: 3.5/5
