Vancouver, BC -
Ricardo Ferreira has been appointed as the new Restaurant Director of Vancouver's venerable Italian restaurant
CinCin, bringing over 15 years of hospitality experience amassed in leading restaurants throughout Vancouver and the UK.
Previously, Ferreira was the Restaurant Manager of CinCin's celebrated sister restaurant
Blue Water Cafe, where he was an integral member of the front-of-house team since 2002. For three-and-a-half years prior, he worked for Vancouver's
Relais & Chateau designated
Wedgewood Hotel.
Early in life, Ferreira developed a passion for food and wine from the defining kitchen of his childhood home. Part of a traditional Portuguese family, dinner was, and is, always an event, with many people and vibrant conversation. Cooking and enjoying food remains a central vehicle for communication and entertainment.
"The culture of food and wine is incredibly gratifying," says Ferreira. "Few environments are as dynamic and rewarding to be a part of."
Together with Executive Chef
François Gagnon and his highly professional service brigade, Ferreira strives to deliver unrivalled experiences afforded by a combination of exceptional cuisine, commitment towards an exemplary wine program and his own insistence on industry-leading service standards.
Located in the heart of Robson's fashionable shopping district, CinCin presents inspired dishes from the heritage wood-fired kitchen. Outstanding desserts demonstrate the Michelin star-studded pedigree of acclaimed Pastry Chef
Thierry Busset. Dinner served nightly from 5pm until 11pm and late menu until midnight . For reservations call 604.688.7338 or visit
