If one did not have to worry about cholesterol, LDL or lactose-intolerance, there would never be enough cheese and grease in this world. Burgoo does cheese right, in the form of Gooey Cheese Grillers and Mac & Cheese. Wow my stomach is doing its…More »

'Twas one rainy, slightly hungover, Saturday morning. Actually, it was pouring. But I still missioned it by bus to get me my post-Friday drinking ramen. It was worth it.

We got there at about 1:30pm but there was a line. No biggie. Thank the Vancouver…More »

I'm torn. The sushi rolls here is worthy of a positive review, but it's really difficult to look past their mind-blowingly slow and inefficient service. To give you an idea, I was extremely surprised and proud of my server when she thought of…More »

This store is so colourful. It looks like a gumball machine, but instead of gumballs, you get tacos!!!

On the last day of my holiday visit to Vancouver, my lunch date stood me up from partying too hard the night before [insert cries]. So I went to Mr. Pickwick's for one of the tastiest fish & chips lunches I've ever had.

I was surprised by the tiny…More »

Really fun decor with plenty of…More »

What an unexpectedly fun night!

We visited the joint after Salt Tasting Room down the street on a Friday night. Luckily it was not yet packed when we got there, and managed to get a table and a game of Jenga! Initially, we didn't get table service…More »
