The food scene is once again expanding at 麻豆传媒映画International Airport in Richmond.
White Spot announced they are not only returning to YVR on April 7, but they will be a full-service restaurant, lounge and bar.
The Vancouver-based restaurant is opening in the domestic departures area outside of security. This will be the 16th food and beverage offering YVR has opened since 2022.
Aside from the restaurant's classic items such as the legendary burger and The Spot's fish and chips, there will be YVR-exclusive items including crispy tofu, wagyu burgers, Neapolitan-style pizza and all-day breakfast dishes like prawn and bacon egg bennies.
Cocktail offerings include jalapeno margaritas, paloma, Italian Greyhound and wildberry gin mule.
To celebrate the opening of the restaurant, White Spot is hosting a grand opening giveaway on April 9 at 12 p.m.
The first 150 guests, 19 years and older, will receive a "golden envelope" for a chance to win a grand prize getaway package valued at $3,000.
The grand prize includes flight credits, a hotel voucher, a White Spot gift card and spending money. Other envelopes will have discounts and prizes.
"I am delighted to welcome White Spot back to YVR and have this truly beloved dining option open to travellers and our airport community," said Tamara Vrooman, YVR president and CEO.
"YVR takes great pride in delivering an exceptional experience, and partnering with local, best-in-class brands like White Spot is a key part of fulfilling that commitment."
YVR's White Spot restaurant features West Coast esthetics with green, warm reds and copper accents, mixed with wood and stone textures -- a nod to Vancouver's wildlife and coastal landscapes.
"We're grateful for the opportunity provided by YVR and the involvement of our valued partner, ECG Ventures II, whose shared vision and expertise have played a key role in getting us to opening day," said Trent Carroll, president of White Spot.
"We can't wait to welcome more travellers from B.C. and beyond through our doors to experience the great taste and hospitality White Spot is known for."
YVR White Spot will be open daily from 4 a.m. to midnight starting April 7.
