Save On Foods has restored itself as my favorite grocery for the following reasons:

La Grotta is the go to for cheese, meat, olive oil, etc... This place has awesome selection, friendly staff. My favorite bit - and this made me a regular when I worked in the area - was the paninis, they are just so fab there. I highly recommend…More »

This place has lovely pastries. I suggest the sicilian canoli, it will make you believe in god. Pastries can be a bit pricey, but are just to nice that they are worth it.

I think Costco is a great invention, and I love having this handy location. I think I have been foruntate and havent wandered in at really busy times yet. I like that I find random things I am not necessarily looking for there, plus shopping in bulk…More »

Superstore might just be another one of those big box stores, but I have to say I support this empire.

This location in particular is great - I say this because it has a great selection of organic foods and wheat alternate products. I have no trouble…More »

The Richmond Night Market is just a Vancouver summer staple. Always packed with loads of people, you can find just about anything for sale there. I liked it better when they had all the knock offs from China, but it's still neat going there and…More »

While wandering the mall, I know I need something, need to spend some money on something, burning a whole through my pocket and all... and what better necessity than fruits and veggies?

I like to stray from the typical chains sometimes so I wander in to Joe's Farm market.

The most exciting moment for me a week ago: strawberry for $2 a package - and they are not even in season yet! Save me 50% on strawberries and you have a fan, and…More »

Safeway is just too convenient from my place...

I like that they have ready made foods (hello baked potato soup, love of my life) and a good range... plus I don't feel overwhelmed by junk food. They also have a limited selection of wheat free products…More »
