Wow! How did I forget to write about the gyros? First, I love that it feels like you're walking into another little Mediterranean world inside Minervas. I'm never sure if they understand what I'm ordering, but whatever they give me inside that big…More »

I scoured grocery stores for great olive oil at a reasonable price before I found Minerva's. When I… Read more »

For Coquitlam, it'll do in a pinch. For my taste buds, it's okay. To my parents, it's the bomb!

I hadn't been to Pasta Polo for ages, swearing up and down and side to side that I'd never go again due to the fact that I thought the pasta didn't really…More »

2 of us dined for about $8.99. Getting set up for an event at Heritage Hall, I dived in here for a quick bite. Steaming and gooey pizza, having just come out of the oven and I couldn't be happier. Especially when there was a little place to perch on…More »

Cheese and bread always stops me in my tracks! And this was no different. Racing home from my weekly UBC farm visit, my tires screeched as I saw something cheesy out of the corner of my eye.

How I wish I had read Shain R's review. I had got my hopes…More »

A standoff between me, holding my $6.50 and Pane Vero's turkey + swiss panini which sat smugly, the last one left in the display case. Would it really be worth my dough (pardon the pun).

I took it out (well, they did) and toasted it (they did that…More »

Update - 10/25/2010

The saddest, mushiest, tasteless cucumber wept in it's own cucumber tears. The tomatoes moaned, groaned before submitting to their fate. The onions stood guard with overpowering flavour... the only flavour. The feta felt sabotaged: "this never…More »

Category: Pizza

Neighbourhood: Kitsilano

4/15/2010 First to Review

This semi new pizza place on Yew is definitely a good choice for decent grub at a reasonable price. I'm not going to lie, this review could have swayed either way when the caprese salad arrived. Beefsteak tomatoes diced (like you'd see in a Greek…More »

Sugar rush!

Did I really buy a meringue cookie? I hadn't had one of those in decades...Honestly, I can't believe I ate the whole thing! It was the size of my hand! But there I was skipping along Broadway and thinking, "Sweet, sweet, I need me some…More »
