Why pay more for pizza when there are tons of $0.99 or $1.25 pizzas all over town?

It's DAMN GOOD pizza that's why!  The toppings in terms of quality and quantity far surpasses those other pizza joints.  Their pizza flavours are unique and the dough…More »

The Kaboom Box is a food cart on Granville and Robson.  At lunch time during the week days, the line ups get quite long.  I've always passed by when I'm in a rush so I never had a chance to try it... until today!

I had the Salmon Burger had a nice…More »

Nu Greek Street is a quick grab and go slouvaki food cart.  

They slathered on the tzatziki sauce which was thick and garlicky.  The lamb was tender and cooked well, but a little too chewy on the fatty parts.  The pita was toasted with olive oil and…More »

Can't drink on the job?  Cheat a little with La Brasserie Street!

A juicy beer chicken sandwich smothered with just the right amount of gravy, top with crispy fried onions and in between 2 soft buttermilk buns.  A winning combination all around!  The…More »

I almost forgot how amazing their chicken wings are.  Oh the crispy and juicy chicken dipped into that lemon pepper sauce.  In LOVE again!

Their noodle soups are still pretty bad though.  I always believed it was easier to perfect the noodle soups and…More »

Great little place in the food court to grab your lunch.  

I love their steak salad.  Delicious, -it hits the spot, provides my much needed iron intake for the day without the heavy carb feeling.  Yes, I do love my carbs, but when I'm not in the mood…More »

3.5 for a simple hole in the wall Korean restaurant.

I've eaten here 4 times and usually for lunch.  This place is pretty busy during lunch time so if I am eating here, I try to stop by around 11AM.  

The portions are a good size and the price is very…More »

The right amount of sauce and the right amount of spice on a huge pile of juicy meat and warm bun = orgasmic goodness.

I expected more of a smokey taste, but I really enjoyed the zestiness of the coleslaw and meat in this sandwich.  

That was $7.00…More »

Warm crepe with cheese oozing out or one smothered with nutella with a side of ice cream.  Whether you're craving a sweet or savory crepe, you can have it all at Cafe Crepe.  

I think it's brilliant how they have a fan in the front window to lure in…More »

I really do love a regular hot dog every now and then, but if you want to give your tastebuds a hard shove, then I suggest going with a Japadog!

Think regular hot dog with Japanese ingredients piled high on top... that's a Japadog.  I believe most…More »
