Here are just a few of the spots that made my stay in Vancouver a most memorable one...

 1. Loden Hotel

1177 Melville St
Vancouver, BC V6E 0A3
Canada
(604) 669-5060

Category: Hotels

Neighbourhood: Downtown

5.0 star rating
  1/20/2010

The Loden is as close to a 5-star boutique hotel as this weary but wise traveler has experienced, and I'd even go so far as to say that the place manages to epitomize the modern nature and vibrancy of the city of Vancouver itself.

Ok, is that…More »

I had heard rumors and tall tales about the quality of sushi that came out of Vancouver but, hailing from San Francisco myself, figured that they were just that: conjecture.

Well yesterday I had the chance to stop into Sushi Mart, an unassuming little…More »

 3. Exhibit Apparel

2601 Main St
Vancouver, BC V5T 3E7
Canada
(604) 727-5272

Category: Men's Clothing

Neighbourhood: Mount Pleasant

4.0 star rating
  1/20/2010 First to Review

What does that, exactly, mean? Beats me, but sounds kinda…More »

Vancouver, BC V6B 2L3
Canada
(604) 879-3114

Neighbourhood: Downtown

4.0 star rating
  1/21/2010

So, you think I'm not sensitive, eh? Well, then, friendo, you probably weren't at Cafe Medina yesterday morning, as I sipped on one of their deliciously frothy lavender lattes, were you?

Nor were you there as I sang along to the Counting Crows songs…More »

899 Burrard Street
Vancouver, BC V6Z 2K6

Neighbourhood: Downtown

4.0 star rating
  1/21/2010

What do Anthony Bourdain, Ice Cube and Steven Seagal all have in common? Evidently, there'll all devotees of the perfect Japa Dog, and you can count this little yelper amongst that elite squad, so to speak.

Can one of their Kurobuta hot dogs (topped…More »
