1. West Restaurant + Bar
Vancouver, BC V6H 3J4
Canada
(604) 738-8938
Categories:
Restaurants,
Bars
Neighbourhoods: Fairview Slopes, South Granville
On our once-yearly pilgrimage back home to BC (Port Moody, specifically), hubby and I make a point of planning a meal to do on our own, halfway through our trip. This serves two purposes. First off, Vancouver has some AMAZING culinary gems the we…More »
2. Lumiere Restaurant - CLOSED
On our last visit to Vancouver (we're originally from there but moved away ten years ago) we made a pact to visit one really nice restaurant while in town. Like the procrastinators we are, we went shopping downtown and then on the fly decided to pop…More »
3. The Keg
Spot on service and great food. I'm not sure where these other people ate but I had no issues while dining here. Then again, it seems I pretty much always get good service no matter where I go (be gracious and it seems like things fall into place)...…More »
4. Rodos Kouzina Mediterranean Grille
It makes me sad that living in Southern California, there is such a lack of good, authentic Greek cuisine. Sorry, but the Daphne's chain just doesn't make the cut.
We took a group of our favorite peeps to Rodos this past week... it's a great…More »
5. Black Olive Restaurant
Hubby and I took my sister and brother in law to Victoria purely for nostalgia (Wax museum, the Empress and the Royal Museum - gotta love it) but the standout place for all of us was the absolutely fantastic dinner we had at The Black Olive. Of all…More »
6. White Spot Restaurants
Coquitlam, BC V3B 6S2
Canada
(604) 942-9224
Uh, White Spot... please stop messing with your menu. Hubby and I come here for the nostalgic deliciousness of BC burgers and we don't expect to eat them with lettuce and tomato on them. They are best eaten plain so you'll have to excuse us when we…More »
7. St James's Well Pub
Okay, so it's not the best food ever (it's not bad, mind you) but St. James's Well is a great place to meet up with old friends and catch up over drinks in a cozy environment. I make a point of doing a "bar night" with friends every time I visit BC…More »
8. Milestone's Restaurant
One of the things hubby and I miss most about living in Canada is going to Milestone's for appys and drinks. I'm not kidding... out of all the things.
We make a point of hitting Milestone's at least twice every time we come up for a family visit. The…More »
9. WestJet - Richmond, BC
I loved my first Westjet experience! The flight attendants are a lot like those on Southwest... lively, funny and super accommodating. Unlike some of the big boy airlines, you can tell that these people like their jobs.
I was weirded out that you…More »
10. The Boathouse Restaurant
You know it's bad when the best thing you can say about a restaurant is that the valet guy is really nice...
On a recent trip up to BC, hubby and I hit the Boathouse because for some reason when people want to go somewhere half way nice in the…More »
11. Boston Pizza Restaurants
On our recent trip back to Canada, hubby and I thought it would be funny to go to West Restaurant (see earlier review) one night and then mix it up by white-trashing it for dinner at Boston Pizza the next day.
Just joking. We were doing a "family…More »
