Gorilla Food

Update: This restaurant has closed. I had a day out with Miz Brown Sugar in Downtown and we were planning to have lunch too.  Since Miz Brown Sugar was vegan, I was left with the task of finding a suitable restaurant.  I actually didn’t realize how hard it was to find a vegan restaurant in Downtown.  […]

Griffins @ Fairmont Hotel Vancouver

Update Feb 15, 2014: This restaurant is now closed. If you didn’t hear by now, it is Griffins 18th birthday this year and to celebrate, they are offering their menu for 50% off till the end of September.  Naturally I took advantage of this incredible deal and had dinner there with Fannypack.  She’s the best friend […]

They are also in the Entertainment Book so there was all the […]

We were invited to Refuel restaurant to have a tasting.  Unfortunately […]

Kawawa Ramen

Kawawa is located inside Metrotown right beside their All-You-Can-Eat establishment of the same name.  Now […]

The Foundation

Update: This restaurant is now closed. Now I’m a complete carnivore.  I don’t think I’ll ever become a vegetarian or live off veggies alone.  However like most people that like to eat, I’m open to pretty much anything, so when a friend came back from Japan and we were to meet up for dinner, her […]
