They had a "people love us on Yelp" sticker on their door, and wow, do they mean it. So many reviews!

The baked grapefruit on the breakfast menu looked intriguing, but, alas, I was there for dinner.
The three-cheese macaroni was not what I had hoped.…More »

Beef Tataki is our regular item here (or at any izakaya around town). We always end up getting mostly deep fried stuff... karaage, ebi mayo, age nasu... they're so good!

The Oden was pretty good, but the soup didn't taste that deep.

The Calamari…More »

Based on the food by itself, I could have given it 4 stars. Read on for why not.

I had the Poached Basa and Prawns with a sauce similar to the white one you'd get on a Eggs Benedict. It came on a lot of rice (long grain, white) with a lot of side…More »

I like the fresh styles of what they have here. Clean lines and simple colours. But that kind of thing is usually out of my budget -- especially big-ticket items like furniture. I will probably stick to the smaller things.

There was a heart-shaped…More »

This was a very good place to come for my first Travellers Deck review. The deal was much better than I expected: little portions of 3 kinds of appetizer (photo: http://www.yelp.ca/biz...)!
I was wanting to try the TakoWasa (octopus marinated with…More »

I bought the Travellers Deck ( http://www.yelp.ca/biz... ) here because I found out about it from their blog post. Also because they offer it for $10 instead of the $11.95 MSRP.

I've never bought anything else from them... which I felt bad for...…More »

They publish a deck of "100 Best Local Places to Eat and Shop in Vancouver" cards. I tried to find out what else they do, but couldn't find anything. Maybe it's a startup that does only this. The cards are maybe 1.5 times as big as regular playing…More »
