Tonight the JOEY Restaurant chain launched a preview of their newest addition: JOEY Burnaby. Located in Brentwood area in the former Shark Club location, the sexy restaurant chain certainly adds some heat to the area. After some chic remodeling their new location is worth checking out, when they open to the public on Monday October 4, 2010.

The Lougheed ‘Burcouver’ strip already includes the likes of Earls, Cactus Club, and Milestones; but now with JOEY Burnaby its shaping up to be Robson-like dining strip in Burnaby.

Here is a tour of my night, including some beautiful people and tasty bites of their passed menu items.

David Scholefield, local wine-expert and Joey Burnaby associate, was in the house; so you can bet this wine cellar is nothing short of stellar!

The Joey Burnaby Kitchen - my favourite part...

Joey Burnaby Friends - a great place to dine after work

Trendy & tasty beef sliders...

And drum roll ladies & gentlemen…. Saving the best for last, I may have eaten more than one, but I am a biased sweet-tooth (shhh don’t tell my dentist!):

BAKED APPLE PIE BITES = HEAVEN!

Baked Apple Pie bites with caramel, nuts, pastry, ice cream, and apple compote - delightful!

It was a smooth night overall, the food kept coming, the servers were spot on with drink refills everywhere I looked.  The food was served in perfect bite size pieces, and while the bathrooms aren’t quite Cactus Club – they still rocked with their 12-second-power-eco-friendly hand dryers.

I’ll return for more dessert, and I might finish with an entre!

When will you dine at Joey Burnaby?
