As we approached the Kerrisdale White Spot the memories of the legendary Pirate Pack reminded me that this restaurant has been a favorite of Vancouverites for numerous years. I remember the days of getting the Pirate Pack with a tasty milkshake to follow. Well, a lot has changed since the old days and White Spot has adapted to the times.

As we were accompanied by our dog, we decided to sit outside at one of their two tables designated for pet lovers. The server, Gillian, was very pleasant and explained the menu choices that included heart smart options and items that had nutritional information provided upon request. Their menus now include healthier eating choices and food from around the globe. For those with special dietary needs the friendly staff make you feel right at home.

Since I require a low fibre diet I ordered the beef dip ($9.49), while my friends ordered the calamari ($7.99), Cantonese stir-fry ($10.99), chicken strips with plum sauce ($8.99) and strawberry pie ($3.49) for dessert. With regards to the meal the comments from my friends were very positive especially concerning the strawberry pie.

Overall the experience at White Spot was excellent due to the food, the pet friendly atmosphere and the nostalgia brought on by memories of the Pirate Pack.
