I’ve been on a Bun Bo Hue run lately. It’s all I will order whenever we go to pho, and that’s at least once a week. And it all started with a visit to Cafe Xu Hue. Cafe Xu Hue is a small restaurant on Kingsway. Not exactly hole-in-the-wall, as it’s quite bright and clean […]
PrettySis was in town to visit with the kiddos and she had been cycling around my parent’s part of town for cool places to eat. One of these places was the Parallel 49 Brewing Street Kitchen, and she quickly made a date with me and the rest of the family to have lunch there. The Parallel 49 […]
We had passed by Old Xian’s Food many times when AngryRussian has softball and every time I had wanted to go. I finally got the chance when I had a huge noodle craving one night and we made the out-of-the-way drive to the Kingsway location. Old Xian shares a small parking lot with a few other shops and […]
This past weekend was Vancouver Craft Beer Week‘s annual festival at the PNE. AngryRussian and I had the opportunity to go and it was a joy as always to go and see both old and new local craft breweries do their thing! What I absolutely enjoy about these types of events is that you get to […]
Fannypack is such a good dinner partner because she is mostly up for anything. When I said I wanted to try out Amay’s House, a burmese restaurant, she immediately says “Ok let’s go!” We tried a bunch of staples. First we both really wanted Amay’s House’s version of Myanmar Tea Leaf Salad “Laphet Thoke” ($8). Last time […]

Grub on Main was my final choice as it was out of downtown and their menu sounded yummy, although what you see on their website doesn’t necessarily reflect what they’re offering at the moment. Grub […]
For my last Dine Out of the year we picked a $30 menu and decided on Forage. This is not my first Forage rodeo but it was my first dine out with them. First a note about the service though- As it was dine out, we were restricted to a 1.5 hour dining period…this was […]
I’ve actually never heard of Notch8 Restaurant before and the first time was when I was picking out a Dine Out Vancouver menu this year. The way they named their dishes was very endearing to me, plus they had grilled octopus on the menu! So Notch8 became my second Dine Out Vancouver restaurant and C-Dizzle […]
