1. Loden Hotel
The Loden is a super sexy boutique hotel with excellent service and beautifully decorated rooms. From the TV screen that welcomes you by name, the gorgeous rooms, silky sheets, and fantastic bar downstairs, the Loden is pretty much perfect (I could…More »

Category:
Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhood: Downtown
I woke up this past Sunday to a beautiful morning full of sunshine and promise and as I lolled around tangling myself up in the sheets, there was really only one thing that could have made everything absolutely perfect. A Lavender Latte from Cafe…More »

Wine Bars,
Tapas/Small Plates
Neighbourhoods: Downtown, Gastown
"Are you sure it's down here?"
I peered into the dark alley wondering if we'd made a wrong turn. It just looked like an alley. A very dark and scary looking one. And it was raining. So it just looked like a wet, dark, and scary looking alley. It…More »
4. Vij's Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6H 1L1
Canada
(604) 736-6664
Category:
Indian
Neighbourhoods: Fairview Slopes, South Granville
I don't like waiting for a table at restaurants. I want restaurants to take reservations so I can come in at an assigned time, sit down, and eat my meal at a normal hour. No matter how good the food, waiting around for a table for a long time is…More »
5. OPUS Hotel Vancouver

Hotels
Neighbourhoods: Downtown, Yaletown
While doing our research for lodgings in Vancouver, every guidebook, magazine article, blog, and personal referral pointed us to the Opus Hotel. Touted as one of the city's top boutique hotels, it's also known as quite a hot spot for the night scene.…More »
6. SkyTrain

Why is it that everything in Canada seems like it's so much cleaner and more efficient than things here? A perfect example would be the SkyTrain. It's public transportation done extremely well and best of all (at…More »

Categories:
Seafood,
Live/Raw Food

Right around the corner from the Opus Hotel, Blue Water Cafe is definitely a see and be seen type of place. From the looks of it, it's where the beautiful people of Vancouver congregate for drinks and good food.
I'd like to give it five stars…More »

Canada
(604) 975-7550
Categories:
Specialty Food,
Florists,
Grocery
Neighbourhoods: Downtown, Yaletown
I love Whole Foods and Urban Fare I guess is Canada's version of the upscale grocery store. This location is down the street from the Opus Hotel and just steps away from the harbor so it's convenient to grab a snack or a cup of coffee and walk down…More »

Categories:
Japanese,

We stepped out on a rainy Wednesday to walk along the waterfront from Downtown to Gastown and happened upon Miku on our way. We actually had no intention of eating there but decided to go in to grab a bite since it looked like our walk into Gastown…More »
