Sure the service is slow, sure the wait is long, sure your meal occasionally comes to you luke-warm. But let us be honest with ourselves, there is a reason why The Naam is one of the most popular restaurants on the West Side.

I suspect the reputation…More »

Two Words: Eggs Benny!

It's true. I am on a lifetime quest to find the best of 2 things: Cappuccinos and Eggs Bennedict. I don't know what it is but I will assess the quality of a restaurant or cafe on the basis of these elements alone.

This was one of those haircuts where, about half-way through, I started to get nervous. Let's just say I lost a lot of hair yesterday and I had a bit of chopper's remourse at half-time.

I have spent many fun hours rifling through the hats in this great little store and, every once in a while, coming out with something great to top my noggin.

Edie's is great, not only because it offers a huge collection of men's and women's head-wear,…More »

I am just not a huge fan of the sickly sweet concoctions that most coffee places serve up under the unintentionally laughable title "chai tea". Seriously, do you think anything approaching a chai tea late has ever been served in India... I think not.…More »

3.0 star rating
  8/10/2010

ReBar has an absurd and undeniable charm. It isn't that this is the best vegetarian food in BC or even the best "big name" in vegetarian food (I am a devout Naam-er) but there is a lot that is great about this Victoria staple.

Every time I visit I am…More »
