Volume 117: Tête-à-Tête cocktail party at Tableau Bar Bistro in Coal Harbour on May 7, 2013. More photos available on Flickr and Tumblr.

Coal Harbour's tucked away seafood eatery and bar inside the Loden Hotel celebrated the oncoming summer festivities with a seafood and ice inspired cocktail party.

As you can see, I was all smiles (along with Georgia Straight editorial assistant Michelle da Silva), enjoying some tropical themed cocktails.

Tableau had some nice touches including a fresh oyster bar made of solid ice.

Vancouver's famous B.C. spot prawn season starts this Saturday at False Creek's Fisherman's Wharf for the seventh annual Spot Prawn Festival. We got a head start with some nicely poached and delicious local spot prawns.

Nothing beats fresh seafood inside or outdoors on a warm summer's day as Tableau provided a dazzling and delicious selection of bites.
