The Burns Club of Vancouver prides itself on being faithful to the tradition of the Tarbolton Batchelor's Club, which was founded on 11 November 1780. Robert Burns and some friends formed a debating society to 'forget their cares and labour in mirth and diversion', to promote friendship and to improve their minds with meaningful debate. The Vancouver dinner was held on Monday evening, February 20th, at the Terminal City Club in downtown Vancouver. more »

People couldn't believe we actually made a chili with haggis, that tasted very.... uh.... haggis-sy. I LOVED our chili, and took the remainders home and ate lots and lots of it. My girlfriend even admitted it was a good chili - for one made with haggis. more »
