Neighbourhood: Downtown Eastside
Pretty solid brunch spot. Not in the best of neighbourhoods for transit, however, so I took my car.
I thoroughly enjoyed my brunch of grilled chicken hash. Plenty of veg with big chunks of soft potatoes. The condiments for the toast were a nice…More »
You know what? I really like this place. Despite the odd decor. And service has been friendlier of late with female staff serving on my last few visits.
Again, I really don't know my way around this type of cuisine, but the food here is…More »

It's a staple of the Drive, that's for sure. I popped in here last night to meet a friend for some chat time. I was starved so had their peanut stir fry with rice. It was pretty decent, but nothing to write home about. I cleared my plate, though,…More »
