Yes i too finally made it here. Walking into this place is really confusing because it does not at all feel like a place you want to hang out it. But the sentiment is agreed, this is now my favourite vegan place in Vancouver. They do things right. I…More »

For the first time in a year i had 2 burritos that were duds. I don't know what happened but everything tasted cheap, not fresh, and yucky. I didn't make it through 1/2 of my burrito. I was sad.

Sake bomb! Hell yah! It's a sake shot held up by 2 chopsticks, and dropped by banging the table into the beer.
This is not why i like this place though. As a vegetarian sushi eater it was one of the first places to serve sushi with cream cheese (that…More »
