The Goods from Dante
Vancouver, BC| An inviting new culinary destination is set to transform the lunch hour at Bentall Centre Mall (505 Burrard St — Lower Concourse — Suite 501) with the arrival of Dante Italian Sandwich. Scheduled to open in late February, this eatery promises to transport guests straight to the heart of Tuscany through its dedication to traditional flavours and warm hospitality.
