In one of the city's top hotels (Fairmont Pacific Rim), find one of its hottest hangouts, The Lobby Lounge and RawBar. It makes a big impression, and not just because of its expansive space. Snuggle up by the two-sided fireplace, nab a seat by the stage, where nightly live music is performed, or pull up a chair at the marble bar—it's all on offer. The best part? It's not just about good looks and sensational sips. Snack on a variety of sushi, including salmon motoyaki, a signature roll with chopped wild sockeye, steelhead trout, avocado, cucumber and warm motoyaki sauce. Miso soup is a good bet for a cold night, and braised local octopus is a simple delight. Local salmon and steelhead figure largely on the menu.
