Cheese Shops
Neighbourhood: Downtown Eastside
Cheese whores in the house!!..?! I am, I am! And I love, love this store. They just opened their newest store beside Au Petit Chavignol along E. Hastings, and are holding a grand opening sale today, with 15% off on ALL items, and a free insulated bag…More »
2. Les Faux Bourgeois
Vancouver, BC V5T 2R6
(604) 873-9733
WHAT A SCORE. This is a killer deal for honest to goodness French cuisine. This quaint bistro smacked in the middle of Mount Pleasant offers the traditional French classics, (entrees not costing more than $19), enticing daily chalkboard specials…More »

WHO:
You know you have it good when you are the fourth generation pastry chef who previously worked in Michelin starred restaurants in Europe. You were once Executive Pastry Chef for Daniel Bouloud's Daniel…More »
4. DB Bistro Moderne - CLOSED
I think this urban restaurant belongs in Downtown Vancouver along the likes of Market and Italian Kitchen. It's a lunch spot for corporate bigwigs. But I can't complain they opened in Kits. With abundant free parking around the area, I'm actually…More »
5. Provence Marinaside
Vancouver, BC V6Z 2Y3
(604) 681-4144
C'est si bon! This must be the closest I could get to South of France right smack in downtown Vancouver. The food, the ambiance, the service, the marina view, and the...Smokey Robinson music, uh, err! more on that later... I had my rare - high and…More »

Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhoods: Downtown, Granville Entertainment District
I was ready to give this place three stars until it was time for dessert.
This is what you need to know - "Blue Fence" Special. It's a $25.00 three-course prix fixe served every Monday to Saturday between the hours of 6-7pm only. You choose along the…More »

Breakfast & Brunch
Neighbourhood: Downtown
I love this place and the food. I must admit wifey and I woke up early on a weekend so we came hungry.
The breakfast cum brunch menu is a one-pager unless you want to look at their sister-restaurant menu, Chambar. Which if that's the case I would go…More »

Chocolatiers and Shops
Neighbourhood: Riley Park
It's good to sometimes indulge oneself with artisan chocolates that bask in age old traditions, but employ new word recipe.
Pricey? Yes. Hand-made? Of course. In small batches, mind you.
Chocolatierie de la Nouvelle France reminded me of Vosges…More »
9. Crepe Montagne
I love this place. It's compact, hidden, and has a nice country-style decor perfect for the menu items they serve.
We had the best server who was very personable. She entertained all our inquiries and made us feel at home.
I had a hearty classic Swiss…More »
10. Market By Jean-Georges
For a restaurant with a menu comprised of the three-star Michelin Chef's favourite items from his other restaurants around the world, I expected a lot. Perhaps way too much.
I would describe the service as professional and efficient. I wouldn't expect…More »

Bakeries
Neighbourhoods: Downtown, Yaletown
ROUND 1: Okay, so this was the place of Sarah O.'s fart mousse, so I intentionally skipped all mousses of any kind here. No thanks, maybe next time, but not my first visit. I was pleased to see they had caneles and macarons, and got both, packaged…More »
