Update: This restaurant has closed. Before we get to Handi Cuisine of India I’d like to say a few words about lazymeal. For those of you not yet familiar with lazymeal, it’s an online food ordering platform that is focused on recommending the tastiest meals in greater Vancouver. It’s simple, just punch in your postal […]
A & W has been slowly revamping their menu at certain locations with slightly more “upscale” fast food offerings like yam fries and veggie burgers as well as adding actual dishware for dine-in to compliment their traditional frosted glass mugs. Their latest additions are various grilled cheese sandwiches and poutines which I set out to […]
Update: This restaurant has closed. For our monthly gossip session, Fannypack and I visited The Ascot with a Groupon in hand. As we approached the restaurant we were impressed by the swanky hipster-looking storefront. However it did look out of place for its location, as it’s near Richards and W. Pender. Stepping in the hipster-factor […]

Wendy had heard good things about L’Abattoir, a French/West Coast restaurant so we trekked to Gastown to try it out. It was amazing!

You can read our review of Bo Laksa here. Alas, that day we arrived during Bo Laksa’s mid-afternoon closing period in the […]
Woohoo!!! Mr. ESL is getting married!!! To commemorate his last days as a bachelor Ms. Awkward Diner organized a fantastical and super fun stag for him. It all started with dinner at The Irish Heather. Or was it the Salty Tongue?? I say this because although we had reservations at The Irish Heather, we were […]
After months and months of pestering I finally agreed to take the drive down to Port Kells (Surrey area) to visit the notorious Sandwich Nazi at La Charcuterie Deli. Hitman’s been there multiple times before and raved of the humor and amount of food you get for less than $10. Less than $8 to be […]
T-dog and I have been frequenting the Royal City Farmers Market this summer. The last time we went we had the best snow cones ever from Frostbites. It has still been pretty hot lately so it was the best type of weather to have one. Now these are not your kiddie snow cones from yesteryear […]
