Was back for a birthday party and again, I was not disappointed.  

We had a huge communal table going and I tried the seabass, tenderloin, escargot, pate and onion soup.  The verdict?  Amazing, yet again!  

Les Faux Bourgeois, I love your consistency,…More »

From huge parties to intimate gatherings, Chambar's service is always stellar.

I came for drinks last night before the concert at GM Place and they make one of the best dirty martinis.  The drink is never too overly salty and the olive taste like it…More »

After going to the Elite Yelp Party at Suika, I knew I wanted to come back.  Sometimes you wonder if it will be just as good on a regular night and Suika did not disappoint.

I don't recall everything that was ordered at Suika, (I'm allowed since it…More »

Another fantastic restaurant to add to the Main Street neighbourhood.  The French Table Bistro, -that pretty much tells you exactly what kind of food and style you're going to get.

When you enter the restaurant, almost the whole back wall is lined…More »

I usually eat here a few times a year in the summer.

The food is at best a 3/5.  You will need to go inside and order your food at the counter.  Napkins, water and utencils are self serve.  I had the bison shepard's pie and the ahi tuna salad.  The…More »

A very sweet and thoughtful friend of mine took me to L'Abattoir for my birthday since it's one of my favorite restaurants.  She's not a fan of the decor, but I love exposed brick with modern furniture and glass touches everywhere.  But one thing we…More »

I love the location and the food here.  Sitting on the patio in the summer is just so de-stressing.  In the winter or fall, I like to sit at the bar and enjoy my food with a dirty martini or gin and tonic.  

The servers and bartenders are very…More »

Driving out to Kerrisdale is rare for me, but when I do, I make sure to eat at Ajisai Sushi Bar.

Sure, there are a lot of other restaurants, but where can I get the guarantee of the freshest sashimi?  I have yet to have a bad sushi experience here and…More »

My husband arrived at 11:00AM on Sunday morning and it was packed.  Was it worth the 45min wait for the table?  You bet it was!

I love the theme of the whole restaurant.  There's even little twisted forks on the menu clip board.  The food?  I was…More »

Still a strong solid 4 stars!

My friend and I decided to eat the fondue this time and it just hit the spot!  Honestly, you can't go wrong with wine and cheese.  And especially high quality cheese, pates and meats.

Another one of my friends love this…More »

5/5 for food, price atmosphere and service!

Wow, 179 reviews and counting!  First of all, the entrance of Salt Tasting Room is located in a dark, dingy, smelly alley.  Going to this restaurant is an adventure in itself.  
As you approach the restaurant, there's a sign above with a cartoon…More »
