welcome to my hood!

I Love Apple Pie :) (14)

It doesn't have to be a special bakery, or a dessert shop... as long as there's apple pie.. I'm willing to try (hehe I rhymed!)

Brunch'n Eggs, French Toast, Pancakes & MORE! (6)

"I'll Substitute for Yam Fries Please" (14)

Yummy sweet potato options

Bubble Tea Shops and other Drink Wonders (7)

Don't think that if you go to a bubble tea shop that you are obligated to order something with pearls! There are also many flavours of jellies.. or you can opt out and just enjoy fresh fruit, milk teas, or regular tea. It's a world of choices!

Not Your Average Macaron! (9)

It's a MacaRON, not a MacaROON, Parisian style! C'est Bon, non?

Vancouver Magazine's 101 Best Eats (43)

Backgrounder: In 2008  / 2009, Vancouver Magazine released articles on the 101 best eats in Vancouver. My goal is to try as many as possible.... and give my two cents!

Unique / Top Knotch / Must Try at least Once... OR MORE! (19)

Specialty items that you most likely can't find elsewhere - must try at least once to get the true experience!

Let's go to Gastown Instead... (24)

Full of flare, character, and unexpected surprises!

Sushi-licious... or not!
