Publisher’s Note Here come the holidays! Kerrisdale is magical during the festive season as people fill the sidewalks to shop for gifts and warm up inside their favourite restaurants and cafés.

This past September, Kerrisdale Business Association had a successful inaugural Great Kerrisdale Mutt Show in addition to celebrating the Village’s 114th birthday. The KBA is now busy preparing for winter in Kerrisdale with seasonal street banners, the annual window decorating contest, old-fashioned horse and carriage rides, a free skate at Kerrisdale Arena and street music.

Some big changes are coming to Kerrisdale in 2020. On January 6, Translink’s new Rapidbuses will begin operating along West 41st Avenue; read about the improvements on page 30. In addition, as of January 31, Easy Park is taking over operation of the City owned free Kerridsale parkade on West 42nd Avenue (which will continue to remain free for the time being).

On the cover, Franck Point welcomes you to his well-loved French bakery and café, Pléthore

by Faubourg. Step inside for a unique and authentic experience, rivalling Paris’ famous boulangeries-pâtisseries. This season, impress your guests with four delectable choices of

Christmas logs, relax over afternoon tea or sign up for a macaron making class.

Winter is a time to stay warm and cozy.

Kerrisdale’s QE Home carries all of your bedding needs, whether you are looking for a warm throw, a bed makeover, or a special gift to make someone’s holiday season merry and bright.

A few updates since our last issue: Bean Brothers is closed for renovations, Burrata Pizzeria plans to open soon, Market Meats and Kerrisdale Laser & Skin Care have opened, Vivo Deli and Collins Jewellers have permanently closed. We welcome back On The Go Fashion at their new location on West Boulevard after their store burned down two years ago on West 41st Avenue.

In mid-February, when the next issue of Kerrisdale Insider comes out, we will be celebrating our eighth anniversary. We thank you for supporting our guide to local shopping and fun.

Kerrisdale Insider’s staff wishes you and your family a happy Hanukkah, Christmas or Kwanzaa. See you in the New Year!

Pléthore by Faubourg:

Kerrisdale’s Authentic French Bakery Story by Sarah Gordon

Photos by Sandra Steier

Step inside Pléthore by Faubourg, Kerrisdale’s well-loved French bakery and café, and you will feel like you have been transported to la belle France. Every detail of the recently rebranded and refurbished store, which was formerly known as Faubourg, has been attentively thought out by owner Franck Point.

The French bakery and café offers a unique and

authentic experience, rivalling Paris’ famous boulangeries-pâtisseries. French music is played, and the interior colour choices, flooring, large chandeliers, tables and chairs were all inspired by a famous nineteenth century pastry store in Paris.

Franck says, “Back in 2010, we were one of the few displaying pastries in refrigerated glass display cases that look like jewellery cases.”

“Many of our customers say Pléthore by Faubourg takes them back to places they visited in Paris. It is like their good memories return.” Franck Point Born in Lyon, France, Franck was raised to honour food for its sensory pleasure and its 8

November 15, 2019 - February 15, 2020

KerrisdaleInsider.com

ability to bring people together. Culinary talent runs in Franck’s family; his great grandmother was a chef. In turn, he entered a baker’s apprenticeship program.

He mentions, “For health reasons, my father could not become a chef, but he taught me all I know about food, and baking in particular.

The recipes are the same as those taught in all professional pastry and bakery schools in France, since forever.”

In addition to Franck’s active involvement as the owner, he credits head pastry chef Ricardo Rosas and head bakery chef David Diagne for their instrumental involvement.

Ricardo has been with the company for almost 10 years, and he is Faubourg’s most senior employee. He assisted in opening the Kerrisdale store and developing the company into a chain of three boulangeries-pâtissieries; the other locations are in downtown Vancouver and West Vancouver.

Like Franck, David also hails from Lyon. After attending culinary school, David worked in renowned French and American bakeries before moving to Vancouver in 2014 where he met Franck and was appointed Faubourg’s head baker.

Faubourg’s team is made up of almost 50 employees who work in administration, production and serving customers. Franck

KerrisdaleInsider.com

appreciates cross-cultural exchange and has assembled an international team from Canada, Eastern Europe, France (all of the bakers), Japan, Korea and Taiwan. All bakers and pastry employees hold a professional diploma, from their country of origin.

Inside the display cases you will find French breads, viennoiseries, pastries and macarons.

November 15, 2019 - February 15, 2020

Faubourg is the perfect spot to enjoy either a morning coffee made from a house blend of espresso beans alongside a flaky croissant, or a gourmet lunch featuring baguette sandwiches, homemade soups and a varying selection of quiches and freshly made crepes. A sampling of afternoon treats includes the extremely popular cannelés, lemon tarts and macarons.

Local baked goods such as brownies, cookies and pound cakes have also been added to the menu.

Pastries are prepared each morning in front of customers. Viennoiseries are baked throughout the day to ensure optimal freshness. Franck says, “The French hold these delicate pastries close to their hearts.”

Bread is baked several times daily in an authentic five-deck oven imported from France; it is the only one of its kind in western Canada.

10

All of Faubourg’s artisanal baked goods are prepped, shaped, and packaged by hand.

Each baguette is additive and preservativefree, resulting in a product that is crisp on the outside, aromatic on the inside and all-around irresistible.

The bakery’s delicious gourmet cakes are visual masterpieces and make show stopping centrepieces for any occasion. Fresh-baked selections are offered daily. Order your favourite gateau in advance; it’s a surefire way to impress your guests.

To make an event extra special consider Faubourg’s catering service that can accommodate from 30 to 400 people. Choose from savoury items, sandwiches, French traditional Pain surprise, verrines, mini pastries and sweets. They also deliver to offices for breakfast, coffee breaks or lunch.

The holiday season is almost upon us, and every year Faubourg offers four types of Christmas logs (Bûche de Noel). If you haven’t tasted this gastronomic delight, add it to your must try list.

QE Home:

Kerrisdale’s Bedding Experts Story by Sarah Gordon Photos by Sandra Steier Sleep, glorious sleep. To function at our best we should aim for seven to nine hours of sleep per night, therefore it is important to create an inviting bed to look forward to climbing into at the end of the day.

Bedding retailer QE Home’s origins began in 1989. Friends and business partners Howard Haugom and Ji Su (Jixin) met while completing their PhDs. They realized their combined skill sets and talents were capable of building something great. They searched for the right product to market; when they came across a beautiful and exceptionally priced duvet in a simple bag they knew they had found a winner.

QE Home was established in 1992 and was originally known as Quilts Etc.; it now goes by the name QE Home. The first stores opened in Clearbrook and Nanaimo, B.C. where Howard and Jixin were teaching college economics to help fund their new business. The stores were put together with second hand fixtures and 14

held little product, but the pair knew they were headed in the right direction.

Almost 30 years later, QE Home has evolved from a small family run business into Canada’s premier fashion bedding specialty retailer.

QE Home operates 75 shops located across Canada from St. John’s Newfoundland to Victoria, B.C. The company has grown exponentially from the early days; however, the goal remains to provide Canadian consumers with beautiful bedding for any budget.

Ross Thompson is QE Home’s Senior Director of Creative Development and has been with the company for nine years.

November 15, 2019 - February 15, 2020

KerrisdaleInsider.com

He mentions, “Kerrisdale’s QE Home opened in August 2013 and has been a welcome addition to the community.” The Kerrisdale location is unique as most QE Home locations are situated within shopping malls.

Ross comments, “We like to call the Kerrisdale staff our bedding experts. They take a lot of pride in assisting customers to find bedding that’s perfectly suited for them.

We know that everyone sleeps differently, hot and cold sleepers alike, and we feel the world would be a better place if everyone just got a great night’s sleep.”

QE Home gets new products in each week, and customers love to stop by and touch and feel what’s new.

“A lot of our loyal customers comment on the great service they receive as well as our different bedding lines available for all price points,” says Ross.

QE Home’s in-house team of designers create bedding fashions exclusively for the company.

Ross says, “I love my job. It always challenges me.” He is responsible for forecasting QE Home’s designer linens. Ross looks at trends, primarily European, for inspiration. He also turns to American trade shows and women’s fashion for images and ideas.

Ross Thompson

“Florals will always be in style, but their treatment, such as the size of the image, will change,” Ross notes. He adds, “Botanical leaves are another popular and gender-neutral theme.”

QE Home’s design department will scale an image such as a fashionable oversized tea rose for designer linens, sheets, duvet covers, quilts, coverlets, throws, and decorative pillows.

Ideas for QE Home’s new seasonal collections also come from turning to the year’s top paint colours from Benjamin Moore and Sherwin-Williams. Although grey is still very popular, Ross points out he is starting to see a shift as some customers are seeking warmer palettes.

Ross offers some tips for creating a decadent bedroom environment. “As the days get shorter, layering your bed is the key to coziness. We have great faux fur pillows and throws as well as triple brushed flannel check duvet covers, imagine red buffalo check,” he says.

KerrisdaleInsider.com

November 15, 2019 - February 15, 2020

“For the perfect guest bed, when the weather gets cooler start with flannel sheets then pile on a duvet and duvet cover, such as our Birchgrove design illustrating a forest of black and white tree trunks, with matching shams.

Finish with a faux fur throw, a red teddy bear fleece throw or a luxurious velvet coverlet for an added layer of warmth. Euro pillows at the back of your bed are the perfect solution for indulgent, lazy weekend mornings. If you don’t want your guests to leave, then cover their

16

pillows with Mulberry silk pillowcases, which also come in small gift-sized black boxes when they reluctantly head out the door.”

Ross describes QE Home’s spring 2020 bedding collection as “the tropics meet the Middle East” with saturated bright colours such as turquoise and coral balanced by soft earthy hues like terracotta, and all-time favourites like blush and seafoam.

November 15, 2019 - February 15, 2020

KerrisdaleInsider.com

Health and wellness also figure prominently as QE Home designers continue to develop and innovate their Modal, Tencel and Bamboo Charcoal lines.

From QE Home’s duvet cover fabrics to the content of their duvets; the company is committed to being eco-friendly, from sourcing fabrics made from environmentally sustainable, closed-loop processes to reducing plastics in packaging.

THE

STANTON K E R R I S DA L E

Poised on a beautiful boulevard with mature trees reaching across the streetscape, the elegant stature of The Stanton flawlessly integrates with the prestigious nature of Kerrisdale. Seventeen homes are enclosed with a dignified concrete facade, skillfully defined with mullioned windows and decorative details. The intimacy of the boutique building contributes to the neighbourhood’s incomparable charm.

Targeting LEED Gold certification at this multi-family project located 2089 West 43rd Avenue Sustainable Site Design – Site Location, Neighbourhood and Connections Intensifying the current area to encourage the development of spaces that will make use of existing infrastructure, promote a walkable development, be located near services as well as focusing on energy and water resource are the goals for 2089 W 43rd Avenue. The property is a previously developed site that will make use of transit services for connections to Downtown and the rest of Vancouver.

Green Mobility The site of 2089 W 43rd Avenue is located in a developing urban core, with optimum connectivity to pedestrian, bicycle and public transit options. Within a 400m radius there are three different bus lines which provide connection to the rest of Vancouver.

Being located in proximity of public transportation, East Boulevard and West 43rd Avenue promotes the use of these services to its occupants. This affords the proposed development a distinct advantage for carless commuters.

Access to Nature The strength of 2089 W 43rd Avenue is its ability to

provide an element of environmental connectivity to the city, by promoting pedestrian and transit orientated access, as well as being located central to a number of access points to nature.

Low Carbon Energy Supply To maximize the envelope efficiency of the building, the project teams have designed the building to help manage solar heat gains through the exterior glazing while also retaining energy to maintain thermal comfort. In addition to a high efficiency envelope, the development will further reduce energy and carbon emissions through a high efficiency HVAC design.

The Indoor Environment The indoor air will be filtered using best quality filtration and a building flush-out will be considered before occupancy to maintain the highest quality air for building occupants. To further improve the indoor air quality of the building, best practices will be implemented during construction to ensure clean air quality for the future residents of the building, and interior finishes and coating will be preferred products to limit the quantities of harmful Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) released after construction.

Destination Celebrations One of the fastest-growing trends in the travel industry today is multi-generational destination celebrations. Everyone’s lives are busier than ever, and it’s difficult to get the whole family together for some quality visiting time. Families are often spread over great distances as well, making it even more difficult.

The perfect solution to connecting with your family and your close friends is to plan a destination celebration. Destination weddings introduced this concept over a decade ago, but now the idea has spread to include just about any occasion you can imagine. Anniversaries, vow renewals, significant birthdays, a job promotion or retirement are all great reasons to get the family together for a shared vacation. Exploring the family history on a genealogy trip, hiking together, a wellness/spa retreat, seeking culinary and wine adventures, exploring by cruiseship, or just a few days of R&R on a gorgeous beach are all wonderful opportunities for your family to spend some extended time together.

There are destinations to suit every possible interest and budget, and several great non-stop

flight options make it easy for family and friends to get there. All-inclusive resorts and many cruiseships offer a never-ending array of activities for young kids and teens, as well as great entertainment for the adults. Excursions are available to explore the local culture and history. Dining experiences are a big focus when families travel together. Resorts and cruiseships will offer food for every taste, including local specialities, and can generally accommodate most food allergies. To help celebrate the occasion that has brought your family together, a special meal can often be pre-arranged.

Best way to plan your family getaway? Call a Transat Travel professional. Their value goes way beyond their firsthand knowledge to help you decide the best choice for your destination celebration. They will take the stress off your shoulders, take care of all the details, and you can sit back and enjoy the fun.

No matter what the occasion, travelling with the people you hold dearest is a wonderful way to reconnect, and the memories will last forever.

CALLING ALL PEEWEE PLAYERS Wanna Lead off and Steal Bases – Come Play 7 Innings With Us

There is Baseball After Little League!

Vancouver Community Baseball (VCB) has brought back “Peewee Baseball” after a 10 year absence! In 2019, we formed 6 Peewee teams; 2 travelling and 4 teams that interlocked throughout the lower mainland. All of our Peewee players participated in tournaments throughout the spring and 50% of our players joined one of our summer teams. This allowed many players a total schedule of upwards of 70 games. Peewee teams play out of Chaldecott Park; our jewel diamond since 1994. We look forward to welcoming more Peewee players this season so sign up early.

VCB’s mandate is to provide an opportunity for girls and boys to play baseball at all levels; from recreational to elite travelling teams. VCB’s other teams play their home games at Hillcrest Park and Trafalgar Park. These local parks are integral to creating and maintaining our community feel.

VCB is run by volunteers. Many volunteers enjoy their involvement so much they continue to actively participate long after their children have aged out of their baseball years! Our heartfelt thanks go out to each of our dedicated coaches and executive!

VCB also has many long time local sponsors. They provide support to ensure that our players have the opportunity to play baseball locally. We sincerely thank each of our loyal sponsors.

VCB’s parent association is BC Minor Baseball (www.bcminorbaseball.org). This is the largest baseball organization in B.C.; with over 20,000 registered players. VCB has many age tiers of play: Peewee 12-13, Bantam 14-15, Midget 16- 18 and LMBA 19-45. Eligibility falls within the calendar year, from January 1 to December 31.

At VCB, we are proud to offer baseball for our youth long after their Little League days.

Our aim is to develop, “a sense of belonging to our community” through the great game of baseball.

Kerrisdale Business Association: Winter Update

Submitted by Terri Clark Photos submitted

Kerrisdale Parkade Update

As many visitors to Kerrisdale Village are aware, the free Kerrisdale Parkade has been operated and maintained on the City’s behalf by the Kerrisdale Business Association (KBA) for over 25 years. At the City’s behest, that will change as of January 31, 2020 when their parking arm, Easy Park, will takeover the operation of the facility. The KBA has been assured that the turnover will be seamless and, for the time being, parking will remain free. Businesses who presently have monthly rentals at the Parkade will be informed of any new policies. The KBA was privileged to offer its visitors a well maintained and safe environment at the Kerrisdale Parkade and trust the City will do the same.

Lights, Wreaths, Swags, Action!

As the darker days of winter approach and a diversity of holidays aspire to lighting up the night, businesses in Kerrisdale are encouraged to step up. The annual Window Decorating Contest will be judged on December 4. The sprucing up of windows, planters and entry ways with a variety of greens only takes a little time and contributes hugely to the welcoming atmosphere of our busiest time of the retail year. A variety of nurseries like nearby Southlands, have a wide array of sumptuous greens and hollies which will help bedeck any outdoor container or doorway. As well, nearby London Drugs sells lights and Thomas Hobbs Florist and Buchan’s have baubles that will bedazzle. Make Kerrisdale shine!

The Kerrisdale Mutt Show

Congratulations to the winners Here’s the Best in Show winner at the Great Kerrisdale Mutt Show, being presented with her Gold ribbon by Judge Thomas Hobbs. This inaugural event was viewed by hundreds at the Village’s annual birthday party!

TransLink Update On January 6, 2020, TransLink will be introducing the new RapidBus service along 41st Avenue, the second busiest bus corridor in the region after Broadway. The new RapidBus will replace the current 43 Express Bus Route and will feature the following changes:

Some important changes to note are the bus stop locations through Kerrisdale Village. In preparation for the new bus service, the 41 and the 43 buses are now stopping at East Boulevard in front of McDonalds (westbound) and Pho Tan Restaurant (eastbound).
