Every week our friends at The Georgia Straight provide us with a preview of what you’ll see on – and in – their paper that week. They are the source for lifestyle and entertainment in our city and along with their robust online presence they’ve always released a print edition, distributed everywhere each Thursday.
On the cover this week is their 19th annual Golden Plates issue: The creative spark of executive chef Michael Robbins helped AnnaLena win best new restaurant; plus, readers’ picks for the best food and drinks across the region.
