100 Days

October 4, 2010

This past weekend, I went to breakfast to try out 100 Days (in the Opus Hotel in Yaletown) for the first time with a group of girlfriends. It was fairly early for brunch for me (10:30 on a Sunday), and it appeared to be that way for some others as well, as it was around [...]

Goldfish Pacific Kitchen

September 13, 2010

Late last week, I was invited by new Executive Chef, Curtis Webb, to attend a tasting of the upcoming menu (by brainchild, Ryan Mah) for Goldfish Pacific Kitchen. The new menu will not be available to the public until around the middle of September. There are still some tweaks that will be made (as a [...]

Relish Gastropub in Downtown Vancouver

March 26, 2010

Disclosure: Mike and I were invited to Relish to check out the newly redone restaurant and bar to eat dinner with the owner. While that was scary in and of itself, in hopes that the food would indeed be good, the meal was provided gratis. Early this week, Mike and I headed over to the [...]

Charlie’s Restaurant and Bar in Yaletown

March 10, 2010

Disclosure: I was invited to the media opening for Charlie’s Restaurant and Bar last night. As a result, this meal and everything I will write about in this post was provided on the house. I noticed before the Olympics had started in February that there was a new kid on the block which just opened [...]

Local Public Eatery

March 9, 2010

After a long weekend of being kind of lazy as a result of socializing and having too much fun with the girls, I decided to meet up with one of them again yesterday – the caveat being that we would take a long walk around the seawall in Kits afterward to get a bit of [...]

Corner Suite Bistro de Luxe in Downtown Vancouver

February 12, 2010

At lunchtime yesterday, I managed to make it out with a couple of friends to the newly opened Corner Suite restaurant in downtown Vancouver (at Thurlow and Smithe). While they just opened last Friday (February 5th), they started a lunch service earlier this week. When walking up to the building, we noticed some baby blue [...]

Maenam Thai Restaurant in Kitsilano

February 9, 2010

So I’ve been trying to get to Maenam since my birthday last year when we wanted to book out most of the restaurant, but couldn’t without a buyout. That was back in June – so almost eight months ago! Finally, finally, I was looking forward to trying some Thai food that I was hoping would [...]

Irashai Grill on West Pender

January 18, 2010

After starting to write this food blog, I realized that my photography was bad and I really didn’t know my way around a camera. I figured that anyone looking at my posts would notice and just appreciate some better pics of the food. When I heard in the beginning of December about Jackie Connolley’s food [...]

Red Card Sports Bar in Downtown Vancouver

January 8, 2010

Last night I was heading out to my first Canucks game of the season last minute (I found out in the afternoon), and needed to come up with a place to have a quick dinner before walking over to GM Place. I was asking around for some suggestions, and a co-worker mentioned that I should try [...]

The Edge Social Grille and Lounge on Granville

December 29, 2009

Today a co-worker and I decided to wander down Granville Street to find something different. We were actually on our way to the recently opened Cafe Barcelona, but they were closed (with no sign or no notice – strange), so we had to find another option. I have never been to The Edge – Social Grille [...]
