Are you a fan of lavender? Faubourg in Vancouver has launched their lavender collection containing new items that will tempt lavender lovers. Through these new items, they are taking guests to the lavender fields of Provence France. If you love lavender, you definitely want to check out these treats and drinks.
As we came here for a tasting, all the pastries we tried were sample sizes and do not represent the normal portion sizes.

Final Thoughts
The introduction of all these lavender items are actually really delicious. My two favourite items were the lavender latte and the blueberry and lavender opera cake. The other items were good too, but if I had to choose one drink and one treat, those would be it. You can find these new menu items in their lavender collection at all locations – West Vancouver, Downtown, and Kerrisdale.
