You can have dis ting or dat ting.. but why not try it all? Be careful because most of the food is spicy.. and jerk doesn't mean your a jerk, it just means it's got a nice flavoring. Salmon jerk! Only in Vancouver.

Finally tried the Nasu Dengdaku (grilled eggplant) and had to update that it tasted freaking amazing. It might as well be dessert.
They now charge .75 cents for green tea and are really cheap with the ginger.. but i guess it's better to give less…More »

For the first time in a year i had 2 burritos that were duds. I don't know what happened but everything tasted cheap, not fresh, and yucky. I didn't make it through 1/2 of my burrito. I was sad.

Diner? Diner! I freaking love diner's. Especially a diner one block from my home, and one that is open 24 hours. I am surprised it has taken this long for a diner to open up in this area.. even Calgary has more diner's then Vancouver! This place is…More »

Over 6 months ago i would have given this place 4 stars but i feel the quality has gone down the toilet a bit.
Presentation, and overall taste has suffered. Don't ask me why but the rice isn't as light and fluffy as it used to be, fish and veg's seem…More »

I think anytime you soak a sandwich in butter and fry it with good quality cheese and on fresh yummy bread.. it should taste good.. and Burgoo does this very very succesfully. This sandwich is so good, you really don't want to share. You may want to…More »

Meh. I keep wanting to be impressed by this place but i never seem to be. It's a great place to grab a drink, but i would probably skip on the uninspired food. Maybe because i only can eat the limited vegetarian stuff, but come guys.. you can be more…More »

When my friend said we would be eating some fabulous food made by a private chef, i thought it was a dream come true.. and it was. The set menu was a bit worrisome to me initially because i am severely picky.. but it's' like he read my mind.…More »

I didn't know this place existed until i randomly walked by it one day. I love there pretzels! Fresh, soft, salty. Just add mustard and i am good to go. I have grabbed coffee's and sandwich's here and it's all good. But it's all about the pretzels.

I discovered this place when i was told to order 20 pizzas for a lunch time party..and i was happy to oblige because pizzas and me have some love/hate issues.

It's in my hood but it's taken me forever to get to this place. Mainly because the menu didn't sound to exciting to me. We opted for the tequila lima popcorn which was ok, but nothing fantastic for$6. We shared the spinach, feta, strawberry salad..i…More »

Ok i love this place. Any place that gives you complimentary homemade bread with delicious choices of toppings is going to get some good feed back. The coffee (they don't have drip!) is delicious and they do charge for a refill but it's so good you…More »
