October is soon upon us and with that comes one of the most anticipated restaurant event of the year…you can call it Dine Out Vancouver of the Fall…and that’s Taste of Yaletown! As with Dine Out Vancouver, there will be 3 different price points ($25, $35 and $45) available for you to choose […]
After many, many tastings, we’ve finally decided that between the two great doughnut makers in Vancouver, we Vancouver, we ♥ Lucky’s Doughnuts > Cartems Donuterie. What finally sealed the deal was the doughnuts we had on our most recent visit to Lucky’s. I took the reins and picked out 3 doughnuts- from the bottom: Mango Passion Bismarck($3.50), Pistachio Glazed […]
My family and I have actually been going to Hy’s Steakhouse in Downtown Vancouver for years for special occasions. It’s Momsie’s favorite restaurant. We really enjoy the atmosphere and the level of service we receive everytime. In fact, one birthday, due to our special request, our server had the bartender make an Irish Coffee that […]
Ramen Danbo has become one of AngryRussian and my favorite places to eat on our movie date nights (although we’ve really only been here twice). The Vancouver location is within walking distance from 5th Avenue Cinemas, and is perfect for a quick and delicious meal. We can usually get in and get out of there within […]
I had the opportunity to attend the main event of the 8th annual Vancouver Craft Beer Week held at the Pacific National Exhibition PNE. The whole festival actually started from the last friday of May (the 26th this year) up until June 4th, with the 3rd and 4th being the main event at the PNE. There were […]
Vancouver now has its very own L’Éclair de Génie boutique and I couldn’t be happier!! I first tried eclairs from L’Éclair de Génie on a family trip to Paris and fell in love. They are presented artistically and each and everyone of them were so beautiful that it was actually hard for us to choose just […]
The other day I was channeling the mantra of “Do one thing a day that scares you”. I decided to get a AXKA voucher for a meal for one to Mr Chili Noodle House and headed there for a lunch date with myself. With the voucher ($9.99) you get to pick from 3 noodle dishes, […]
Chewies Steam & Oyster Bar is a Southern-style cuisine restaurant known for their oysters, but that’s not the reason for my visit. I had a craving for Chicken and Waffles so having remembered that Chewies offer it on their menu, I took a trip down to their Coal Harbour location for lunch. This location had large windows all along the […]
For my birthday, AngryRussian took me to Miku for dinner. As it was the holiday season, Miku had a special holiday menu of six courses ($125). The appetizer course had 7 small items itself!! We both decided to do the special set menu, and we noticed that a lot of patrons that night did the same […]
Catch 122 Cafe Bistro was my sixth and final restaurant for this season’s Dine Out Vancouver Festival. Yes…I went a little nuts this year but all because AngryRussian hasn’t done any before and he wanted to do 4, so that was that. Catch 122 was a $30 menu restaurant and I took my parents there. […]
