I can't remember where I got my voucher from...perhaps LivingSocial?

Anyway...who cares...what really matters is the deal... FOUR FREE CUPCAKES! Woot...

It's about time I put up a review of this mecca of deliciousness.

I've long been a fan of Booster Juice...from North Vancouver's Park & Tilford location (they're by far the nicest people ever -- they'll do substitutions for you to your liking and they…More »

Love this place -- if you appreciate black coffee, this place is where it's at.

No clue what brand they serve here, but order a brewed coffee, drink it black and appreciate how smooth it tastes.

OMFG....a place that serves Chinese food where the chicken balls are made of WHITE meat...

I just got home from this place -- for what it is, it's amazing. Crab legs! BBQ ribs! Mussels! Shrimp! Seaweed salad! Even the sushi was decent.

I signed on,…More »

Love this place...haven't experienced the full Loblaws experience just yet but I come here for lunch and it's a great place if you're on the go.

Salad bar secret? Everyone grabs the small container ($3.59) and loads it up. The soup here is delish as…More »

If you want quality and authentic (by that I mean, Japanese owned and operated), this is the place to be. I was practically raised here - have been going to this place for more than 10 years, and everything is still the same except for some of the…More »

I was walking around the area with my parents, acting like a bunch of tourists (because, we kind of are! I just moved here!) and popped my head into this store...it looked really cool from the outside!

Inside, I thought it was a cafe but upon closer…More »

Am surprised but not THAT surprised to see that Freshii's been getting some sub-par reviews.

I read about the founder in a Globe & Mail article and was impressed and couldn't wait to try this place. My first one was the Bangkok Chicken burrito. $6.95,…More »

This place was really good...I came here today just after 12PM, first meal of the day for me.

Really cute and busy inside, but there was hardly a wait. They serve bread with three type of dip (free!), hummous, a really delish tomato-y eggplant dip and…More »

After my first time here last week, I still can't stop thinking about how amazing the butter chicken is. It's just the right amount of sweet.

I visited on an empty stomach, so naturally I wanted to load up on healthy stuff first. Which of course, this…More »

It's a good location, quiet and laptop-worker friendly.

I don't have too much to say here, only, I came for the free wifi (take that Starbucks!??) and will return again and again for their low-fat apple cranberry muffin.

Seriously -- I'm a low-fat…More »

  Update - 7/15/2010

I found this place via FabFind...am glad I got a discount, am not glad I paid $36 additional for this dining experience.

Although I must say, the yam fries are pretty decent.

Anyone who thinks this place rocks is seriously delusional.

It was inevitable that we'd end up spending money here, as my Fiance put it...better to waste money on lunch than drop a crapload at dinner...in this case, for crap.

We were drawn into this…More »
