An interesting new concept from B.C.-based restaurant chain White Spot is getting set to launch in Burnaby this spring, offering diners a unique opportunity to experience the brand’s product research and development firsthand. 

The new R+D Kitchen by White Spot is located in The Amazing Brentwood and will feature a full-service restaurant, lounge, and bar where guests will be the first in Canada to try new and innovative menu items from White Spot’s Culinary Centre.

"At R+D Kitchen we'll be exploring even more flavours, curating unique recipes, and incorporating fresh, local ingredients into a widely-appealing menu," says executive chef James Kennedy. "I'm super excited about this new adventure."

In addition to all new menu items from both the bar and the kitchen, guests can also expect to see some familiar White Spot classics on offer along with vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options.

R+D Kitchen by White Spot is expected to open sometime this spring. More information can be found online.
