Affectionately referred to as "Don Julio's" by my family, this place has been around for decades. A 'hole in the wall' with almost exclusively Hispanic clientele, Las Palmas is run by (drumroll please) wait for it, wait for it..... Don Julio himself!…More »

I probably would have given Bitoque four stars, but under the circumstances I had to dock them one. I'll go back to find out if they deserve that fourth one, though, because it was pretty tasty.

I had a traditional striploin steak and fries with…More »

Not bad, not bad at all.

24 hour delivery? Word.

Ordered at about quarter past three in the morning during a snowstorm in Montreal after watching Goodfellas with my cousin and a few beers and a couple of cigarettes of this kind and that. 40 minutes…More »

What a way to start off my visit to Montreal! Delicious.

I called and made a reservation for two 45 minutes prior to our arrival to allow for enough time to stop by the SAQ and pick up some wine - BYOW, what a great way to dine! Buying wine at the…More »

Not bad, not bad. Maybe if I'd ordered the kobe beef fois gras brgr, I'd have been even happier and lighter (at least in the wallet). That said, my experience was A-Ok. Actually, I'm sitting here right now!

The pros:
* Located right downtown (across…More »

Daaanks! I'll mention the only loss of points up front: in the middle of our waiter taking our order, he interrupted me mid-sentence in order to help another server with another table. Not cool - when I'm paying $$$$ for a meal, I expect to be…More »

Recently updated lists from Anthony C.

Anthony in Boston (13)

Just like the other "Anthony in (city)" lists, I spend a lot of time in Boston, and this is where I've been. You'll notice it's of the greater Boston area, not just Boston proper, with a heavy dose of Concord establishments. I lived in Concord for 15 years, and my parents still do...

The Services (11)

as in not restaurants... in Vancouver... stores either.. just services.

A Man Enjoys Tobacco (3)

Sometimes I like to enjoy a nice cigar paired with a generous pour of bourbon, scotch, or cognac, and on occasion even a cigarette. This is where I've purchased in Vancouver.

A Gastown Jaunt (22)

A tour of the local 'hood a la Antonio.

On the Finer Side (4)

Sometimes, one simply must truly dine.

On Caffeine (7)

99 times outta 100, I go for an Americano.

Up on the hill @ UBC (5)

Studying at UBC, then working at offices on campus, I've been around the block here.

Anthony in Seattle (6)

Having family in the Seattle area, I go here A LOT. These are the tales of my many experiences.

Fuddy Duddy but I Like It (4)

These places are kinda kitchy in a way I normally wouldn't go for, but are redeemed for one reason or another 'cus I like them!

It's Gotta be Commercial Drive (4)

Name speaks for itself!
