It's only fitting that I write my first Yelp Canada review for my favorite restaurant in Vancouver....Richmond, to be exact.   Be sure to pass by this place after you land or before you go....it's close to the airport and would be a shame to not eat…More »

Every couple of years or so I start to get antsy for dim sum. It was time for me to travel to Vancouver to get my fix. I still haven't gone here for dinner *sob* but the dim sum is still great.

Poutine is known for post party/alcohol absorption food and since I don't drink anymore, Poutine as an afternoon snack post ziplining would suffice.

We ordered a large poutine and waited, for bated breath, for my crack fix for the day. It seems like I…More »

As touristy as this place is, I still like coming here. We came here on a rainy and misty day and still enjoyed ourselves. I don't have a fear of heights so it was fun walking quickly across the bridge.

Mondo Gelato changed their name to Gelarmony and I'm happy to report they still have the same gelato, and they still have their cash only policy. $3.95 gets you a cup with 2 scoops.

I got my favorite, Nuttella. It's still creamy, nutty, chocolatety,…More »

I like that Samurai is a good value for money. They have huge cuts of sushi at reasonable prices. I laughed when I read Mark H's review if the reason this place is called Samurai because they used a Samurai sword to cut the sushi. I'm not sure if…More »
