The Yelp Elite Event, Yelp’s for Lovers & Friends, was absolutely delectable. The
beautiful restaurant, Maritime Parc, made for a
perfect venue for the Valentine’s Day inspired event. The place is gorgeous
with incredible views, contemporary décor and a knack for the delicious.

Beautifully
orchestrated bites were passed around to the yelp elites and their guests. Each
taste underlined and highlighted the aesthetic and the culinary vision of the
restaurant.
A singular
seared scallop rested on a tangy sauce with a delicate moment of micro greens,
lush, elegant, and faultless.

Rounded mounds
of briny and succulent lobster risotto floated on wooden spoons, chewy and
luxurious and studded with fatty chorizo.

Oyster shells
served as the ideal vessel for meaty grilled oysters drowning in cream with
creamy leeks and salty bacon.

Each slider with
a buttery bun, caramelized onions, quality beef and special sauce was like
sinking into something solid and familiar.

Fat crab
dumplings swam in pretty teacups, doused in sweet and spicy broth and floating
goodies with an exotic flare, similar to the braised pork belly “Kung Bao”
style.
The bar offered
mixed drinks that were fresh and tropical, boasting pineapple and tequila, gin
and sunshine, and rum with a red wine float. These cocktails spoke to the
curated seafood landscape of the menu.

The exquisite
tasting was rounded off with sultry desserts. Bite-sized hot fried dough rounds
filled generously with blueberries and ricotta cheese, brought on sophisticated
sweetness, while the sticky toffee pudding with nuts and fruit evoked strange
comfort.

We were so lucky
to get another
taste of Maritime Parc and chat with other Yelpers and their guests. The
event only made me want to visit the eatery again for a proper Valentine’s Day
date night.
