How can one give this place anything less than 5 stars?  It is amazing.  A food lover's paradise.  This place is likely the best public market I have ever been to (yes, it's even better than Pike Place).  Food, food, food everywhere.  Amazing looking…More »

YUM, YUM, YUM.  This place is amazing.  I am a maple fiend and this place most definitely feeds my maple addition.

The Victoria creams are the absolute best!  Maple flavored, of course.  Though coconut is quite delicious as well.  

This time I also…More »

This park is absolutely amazing.  It's gorgeous, huge, perfectly located, and has so much to do.  My mom and I only had an afternoon to spend here and it wasn't nearly enough!

If I lived near this park I would likely go all the time...to walk, ride my…More »

Talk about paper galore!  This place is great.  It has all sorts of paper items: journals, gift wrap, stationary, cards, etc.  It also has other cute gift items like wallets and purses.  

This store is fantastic for browsing and I found myself…More »

This cute little gelato place has a TON of different flavors.  I was impressed at the choices.  I ended up with coconut and cream puff, both of which were delicious (although I was partial to the cream puff - surprising, as coconut is usually my…More »

I agree with Laina B - I liked this place better when it was the Virgin Megastore.  But ah well, what's gone is gone...I guess.  This place gets the job done though, so that's good.  

I went here with a burning desire to purchase the French Canadian…More »

3.0 star rating
  9/16/2008

Based on some of the reviews I've read both here on Yelp and another site, my mom and I expected to be blown away by the food at Stepho's.  We happily got in the long line outside the restaurant and waited over 20 minutes to be seated with the…More »

This is a good-sized mall, with all sorts of stores and a massive food court area.  It took us a bit to find the place on a map, but once we did it was easy to navigate around it.  

We only visited a few stores, but we had a decent time at each one.…More »

Neighbourhood: Granville Island/False Creek

2.0 star rating
  9/17/2008

Rating Granville Island as a whole is a little challenging.  Other than the Public Market, Paper-Ya, and Rogers Chocolates, this place just doesn't do it for me.  There's little to look at other than art galleries and over-priced shops.  The area is…More »
