hawksworth: west coast perfection
The Hotel Georgia has been a Vancouver landmark since
1927, a favourite hangout for everyone from visiting
royalty and movie stars to hip locals. In 2011, Torontobased design firm Munge Leung completed an extensive
renovation of the building, restoring many of its original
features and adding a contemporary sheen of west coast
sophistication to the Art Deco masterpiece.
The feeling is carried over into Hawksworth, an
exquisite new restaurant helmed by celebrated chef
David Hawksworth and located on the hotel's main
floor. At once both elegant and relaxed, the restaurant
immediately earned a sheaf of awards and became a
bona fide culinary destination for foodies from all over
North America.
