Earlier this month I was invited to the launch party of Cambie Malone’s Group’s newest venture- Chihuahua’s Mexican Grill! Situated just behind Malone’s Bar and Grill on W. Pender (they’re directly connected), it’s a cozy space for not-quite-fast-food and a wide selection of premium tequilas. Head chef Peter Chun is at the helm and personally crafted the […]
Fannypack and I have been at a running club for 3 weeks now, so we’ve been up and down a specific section of the Cambie strip for a while. Now we’ve noticed a little new Japanese restaurant called Shishinori serving Japanese style cafe-ish food. So we set a date to have dinner after one of […]
SheShe has finally returned from her mat leave and I was finally able to lock down a brunch date with her…believe me it’s been a super long time coming. We decided to go somewhere close and Browns Socialhouse was our choice. She has been there before numerous times for brunch and recommended it. We went […]
Downtown Bellevue is so beautiful. Their buildings look like heritage buildings, but also has a very modern edge to them to keep things interesting. They also have lots of awesome restaurants!! One such restaurant is John Howie Steak, a pretty swanky steakhouse that makes Hy’s Encore here in Vancouver look like the Keg (just a […]
Update: This restaurant has closed. I must say, Graze Restaurant is making its way up there to becoming one of my top vegetarian restaurant in Vancouver This would be my second time heading to Graze Restaurant for dinner. I wouldn’t say I was wow-ed the first time, although it really wasn’t bad at all. However, […]

This event will take place from June 28th to July 6th, and is part of the Carnaval del Sol that’s going to take place in downtown Granville Street on July 5-6th this year. A few Vancouver restaurants are offering specially priced menus during this event, […]
Well well well, I’m back in San Diego again, this time for work. I was quite excited not only because this is my first business trip, but also ’cause it’s an opportunity for out-of-town posts!! Prior to the trip I googled and urbanspoon’d for where to eat. I finally decided on Spices Thai Cafe in Mira […]
East is East has two locations, one on Main St. and one on Broadway in Kits. After sampling some of the Kitsilano East is East offerings at a recent YVR Foodies Meetup, we won a gift certificate for being really spammy on Twitter that day hehe. The certificate could be used at either location, so […]
After the previous week’s pretty negative experience at Wild Rice Wendy and I braved the River Market once again to test longtail kitchen out. A kind of humourous aside here: when I Googled “Longtail Kitchen” to give them a link in this article, the self-written description under their result says, “best restaurant in New Westminster” […]
