Au Bar Nightclub

It was a night out with the girls on a Saturday night.  None of us really have much experience going clubbing so I had the job of picking a place.  After asking around, the first suggestion I received was Au Bar.  So after reading up on Google, we (I) decided to give this place a […]

Water St. Cafe

I’ve always liked Water St. Cafe in Gastown.  It is a relatively affordable restaurant with a nice atmosphere and good food.  This year they’re celebrating their 21st anniversary so they were offering a Whole Lobster entree for just $20.  I of course took advantage of this. Upon entering the restaurant, I found it was quite […]

Rodney’s Oyster House

After Granville Island Pretty Sis and I went back to Yaletown for some food.  As we weren’t very hungry anymore and it was not yet 6pm, we hurried to Rodney’s for some Lowtide $1.50 oysters. They offer a variety of items from 3-6pm for a lower price.  We were here specifically for the oysters but […]

Let’s Go For Dinner: r.tl

Update Aug 3, 2013: This restaurant is now closed. It has been a while since I’ve been to r.tl.  I was first introduced to this restaurant when they held a foodie night early last year.  I had a good impression of the place but never got the chance to go back until now, as my […]

Society Dining Lounge

Update: This restaurant has closed. Do these symbols together conjure up a specific place or restaurant?  Well Glowbal Group certainly hopes so, as it’s the marketing strategy for their new venture in Yaletown, Society. Eat ‘n About was sent an invitation to partake in the Grand Opening Media Access party a while ago.  And it […]

Nordstrom’s ebar (Espresso Bar)

Whenever Boyfriend and I go to Lynnwood, if we happen to go to Alderwood Mall where there’s a Nordstrom, I have to get something from their ebar. It’s much like Starbucks/Blenz/Second Cup.  The prices are similar, even the layout is similar.  My favorite drink here is their Italian Soda which comes with cream and whipped […]

ShuRaku Sake Bar and Bistro

For Fannypack’s birthday dinner, I chose for us to head to Downtown via the Canada Line.  It’s convenient and since Fannypack and O haven’t been on it before, I thought it’ll be fun. My restaurant choice that night was ShuRaku Japanese Bistro. Just get off at Vancouver City Centre Station and walk 1.5 blocks and […]

East Side Mario’s

Update: This restaurant has closed. Sephora newly opened in Coquitlam and Pacific Centre and Wendy wanted to go.  It is a place where men were to be stranded, surrounded by females whom desires to be more perfect, and searching for the gaze of other stranded men for a feeling of sympathy and understanding.   I, on […]

Sanafir

Update: This restaurant is now closed. It was Mommy’s birthday last week, so Pretty Sis and I took Mom and her sister (our aunt obviously) out to Downtown for dinner. Traditionally we had taken her to fine-dining.  However this year, I’ve decided to make full use of my $5 Let’s Go For Dinner membership (it’s […]

Let’s Go for Dinner and Aquarium! Part 2: Zin

Update: Zin Restaurant has closed. Look familiar? We planned to have dinner in Downtown after our trip to the Aquarium since we were going to be in the neighbourhood anyways.  We chose Zin Restaurant Lounge because I’ve heard of their $2 appys from 4-7pm.  They’re also a participant of the letsgofordinner.com “promotion”. It’s located on […]
