Hey Vancouver it’s that time of year again! Numerous restaurants around the city offers 3-course dinners for $18/$28/$38 each! Hitman and I will for sure do at least one restaurant this year… It’s just been so busy! One of my favorite dine-out restaurants in recent years has got to be Rocky Mountain Flatbread Company (see […]
Fannypack recently informed me of this little place in Chinatown that has Buck-a-Shuck happy hour…and get this…it REALLY is a buck for a shuck!!! Not $1.75, not $1.50, just $1!!! When I heard of this, I quickly scurried Hitman to the magical Oyster eXpress with me. This corner restaurant has a very rustic log house interior…the birch color […]
This man never ceases to amaze me…after the shenanigans from our anniversary, I didn’t think he could surprise me again for my birthday…I mean…sure you can take me to a secret location again, but it’s just gonna be the same old food, same old experience right?? But, I repeat, this man never ceases to amaze […]
Update Dec 18, 2012: Amanda you’re the winner! Make sure you check your email for a message from ChocolaTas!! Congrats!! Ahh the holidays~ What better way to relax during this hectic time than to sit down with a box of gourmet chocolates all to yourself?? We were contacted by the local chocolate company Chocolatas to have […]
We were fortunate to come across a pretty good deal on LivingSocial for our hotel stay for this Victoria trip. Hitman and I got a pretty nice room at the Executive House Hotel in downtown Victoria. It was within walking distance to pretty much everything (unless you’re in heels like I was…then it was excruciating […]
Update: This restaurant has closed. Armed with a WagJag voucher, Hitman and I hit up Magda’s Restaurant on Fraser as Hitman was very interested in trying authentic Latin/Venezuelan food and looking up reviews, that seems to be the case here. Magda’s certainly has a very warm family restaurant feel to it. The servers were very […]
Yep. Hitman’s really done it this time. He’s dug himself into a massive hole and frankly, I don’t think he’s gonna be able to get out of it. How could you be so careless??? Did you think of the consequences??? Apparently not! Geez you’ve done such a tremendous job on our first anniversary how are […]
A thing about Hitman is that he is into good, authentic food as much as I am. He’s always looking for the truest form of preparation for a certain type of cuisine and in reality, he is much, MUCH pickier than I am =P On our first date we were at a Thai restaurant and […]
***Update: Please see end of post for SocialShopper’s reply*** Update: White Tower Robson and r. tl are both now (not at all surprisingly) closed. We had quite an interesting Valentine’s celebration last weekend, with a few mishaps along the way…so to bring you guys the juicy (no, not that juicy) details we decided to collaborate on […]
Update: This restaurant has closed. Wendy and I had a WagJag deal for Eh! Restaurant so we decided to head down to the Alberni & Thurlow location to check it out. Prices seemed quite reasonable for this area with many entrees on the rather sparse menu under $10 before the discount. The decor was kind […]
