(604) 689-8847

Category: Pizza

Neighbourhood: Downtown

5.0 star rating
  10/12/2010

This place is my favorite pizza place on Earth! It may not have a fancy or spotless interior, but the quality of their pizza and their unmatched customer service for a pizza joint totally makes up for this small shortcoming. As their name suggests,…More »

I love Starbucks, but when I'm in Vancouver, I refuse to drink it. Instead, I go for their direct competitor: BLENZ! (WHY do we NOT have a store in Toronto??? This bugs me, alot.)

On the streets of downtown Vancouver, you'll see at practically every…More »

GUU has recently opened a location in Toronto, however, I heard line-ups are long, and I really doubt it's as good the GUU in Vancouver. After all, seafood tastes better on the West Coast! (This is for my meat-eating friends!)

Prior to my vegan days,…More »

All hail me, the first duchess of this Trees Organic!

I love this coffeeshop! It is small, cozy, clean, and great for small group gatherings or solo sipping. It has great coffee -you know coffee is good when you can still drink it when it has gone…More »

    Being Seattle's twin city, Vancouver has also become coffee city. There is a coffee shop of some… Read more »

Neighbourhood: West End

3.0 star rating
  10/10/2010

Despite being a vegan, I love breakfast foods and I love diners! I also love Denny's and Toronto sucks because we don't have a Denny's! And we're supposed to be a big metropolis? We have numerous McDonalds and Starbucks, but we can't have one single…More »

 7. Stepho's Souvlaki Greek Taverna

My sister and I waited 30-34 minutes outside for a table. Stepho's is supposed to be a hot dining venue, and the line-up is a testimony to its popularity. Prior to Stepho's, I'd never waited for a table at a Caucasian restaurant.  

When we finally got…More »

Neighbourhood: Downtown

3.0 star rating
  10/10/2010

For a city that's supposedly filled with health nuts, vegan/ vegetarian restaurants are rare in the downtown core. (They're mostly on Commercial Drive.) So I was pleasantly surprised when I found Gorilla Food when walking home from the grocery store…More »
