Palki Restaurant has been doing brisk business for the past 14 years, having opened their doors back in 2000. It’s taken us a while to get out there though since Palki is in North Van which is a bit of a trek from Burnaby. Palki invited us to North Vancouver to sample their freshly updated […]
No, this restaurant is not a white man’s take on Thai cuisine. Bob Likes Thai Food is actually run by a Mr. Tai Keattivanichvily, and seems to have got its name as randomly as I got mine (for those wondering, I was wearing a red tie/white shirt get-up for work once, and combined with my […]
Update: This restaurant has closed. To wrap up our coverage of this year’s Tastes of Latin America festival, we bring you a long overdue review of Poncho’s Mexican Restaurant. Poncho’s is Vancouver’s second-longest running Mexican restaurant, and they are the longest-running if you base it on never having moved locations. They’ve been at the West […]
Wendy and I have recently been on a bit of a quest to find the best restaurant in New Westminster. We tried some of the overly hyped restaurants at the River Market, but somehow this lesser-known gem slipped our mind. Taqueria Playa Tropical is an authentic Mexican restaurant on 6th St. that we have been […]
3 days. 15 hours. Hundreds of booths, stages, and events. This was our experience at EAT! Vancouver 2014: If you haven’t been to EAT! Vancouver—you should go!—it is the ultimate consumer food show. Wander the aisles with your fellow foodies grazing on samples, stuffing your bags with bargain priced fine foods, and schmoozing with celebrity […]
East is East has two locations, one on Main St. and one on Broadway in Kits. After sampling some of the Kitsilano East is East offerings at a recent YVR Foodies Meetup, we won a gift certificate for being really spammy on Twitter that day hehe. The certificate could be used at either location, so […]
After the previous week’s pretty negative experience at Wild Rice Wendy and I braved the River Market once again to test longtail kitchen out. A kind of humourous aside here: when I Googled “Longtail Kitchen” to give them a link in this article, the self-written description under their result says, “best restaurant in New Westminster” […]
Wendy’s been spending a bit of time down at the River Market at New Westminster Quay, and with me not having been at all yet we decided to go for dinner at Wild Rice. I vaguely remembered having heard good things about Wild Rice restaurant, and I know it serves fairly healthy food, so it […]
Mexican food is in my top 5 national cuisines, so you bet your cojones I’ve had my share of guacamole. And out of all that guacamole, this healthy recipe handed down from my mother (and slightly tweaked by me) is the best guacamole recipe I’ve tried. Better than any restaurant, better than any recipe. Yes, […]
