"Waterfront Centre Hotel, Vancouver, British Columbia. Traditionally gravlax is served with ice-cold shots of vodka or aquavit. Clear Creek Distillery's pear brandy is a delicious Northwest match, especially if it's used as the brandy in the brine recipe. Be aware that this salmon needs to cure for 48 hours in the refrigerator. From The Best Northwest Places Cookbook (Volume 1)."
