It’s rare to have a restaurant that draws a "wow" before you’ve even entered the parking lot, but the gloriously bling-y exterior that designer Marc Bricault has created at My Shanti certainly does that and more. Its covering is thousands of silver sequins (painstakingly threaded by hand) glittering in the sun and shimmering in the wind.
The first solo project of acclaimed Vancouver restauranteur and TV star, Vikram Vij’s (Vij, Rangoli and the Vij’s at Home line are co-owned with his partner Meeru Dhalwala), My Shanti is an exuberant reflection of Vikram’s personality. “My Shanti is just my baby: the style I wanted to create, the music I wanted to hear and the menu that I wanted,” Vikram says. “Gloriously bling-y? That’s who I am! I’ve got bracelets, pearls, toe rings, nose rings — there’s nothing about me that’s not in your face, and I feel that My Shanti is all about bustling colours and craziness.”
