Vancouver, BC V5Z 2M9
(604) 261-8262
Category:
General Dentistry
Neighbourhoods: South Cambie, Oakridge
It's a rare occasion that I review a dentist, but this is one deserving of my words. Dr Sheri Wise, where do I start? (an aside: I will not rant. No. I'm not going to be that person) Standardized billing makes it impossible to overcharge for a…More »
2. Apgujung
Maybe I should start with a disclaimer. I love me some spicy food -- like 'will-go-out-of-my-way-to-orde r-the-spiciest-thing-on-a-menu -just-to-prove-the-depths-of-m y-devotion' kind of love -- but like any flavour, spice must be handled with care.…More »
3. Gyoza King
Umm, I think I may have missed something? This came so highly recommend that I was super jazzed to finally check out Gyoza King. Maybe it's because I can't eat glutinous products and didn't try the gyoza that they are the "king" of, or maybe the…More »
4. The Elysian Room
Vancouver, BC V6J 1P2
(604) 734-1778
Category:
Coffee & Tea
Neighbourhood: Fairview Slopes
Yikes, what did I miss? After hearing / reading such great things about Elysian, I was stoked to finally get the opportunity to check it out. Stepping in was like walking through a time-warp -- baristas that look like they came straight out of…More »

No.
omygahdno.
There is no way in any western-world that sushi should be this cheap.
No.
Yes, you will get a lot of food for a very tiny bit of money, but no. No, you will not feel good after consuming.
Ogadno.
Poor cuts of fish, too much rice in the…More »

Pubs,

Against better judgement, here I am. But nope. Nope, still bears the same stench of the underbelly of a beached whale. Still lost in a sea of backwards caps. Still overwhelmingly underwhelming.

What. a. shithole.
Cambie's always been a pretty decent dive with a mostly okay patio, ridiculously… Read more »
7. Vegan Pizza House
Vancouver, BC V5N 2T4
(604) 248-5336
Euugh.
As a person who can't eat the wheat, I totally commiserate with those who choose not to eat the meat -- I get it, I like those little critters too. Also, I tend to eat mostly vegetarian at home anyway, so it's no big leap to get me a veggie…More »
8. Kadoya Japanese Restaurant
Vancouver, BC V6E 1M5
(604) 608-1115
Categories:
Japanese,
Sushi Bars
Neighbourhood: West End
Blech. Even though I said I never would, I came back to give Kadoya another shot. Bad, bad, bad idea. Still waaay too much rice, still the wrong taste and texture combinations, even more terrible cuts of fish than I remember, far too much emphasis on…More »

I wanted to like Kadoya, I really did. So much so that I've been back THREE times! But not once did… Read more »
