on March 18, 2015 in North Vancouver

Think North Vancouver only has run-of-the-mill restaurants to offer? Think again. The District Brasserie isn’t your average dining experience. It focuses on offering unique and authentic European fare as opposed to tired, been-there, done-that menu items commonly found elsewhere.
