Food and Drink

Do you live in Vancouver and like bars? Well then...see VANCOUVERBARS.

Awhile back we addressed some of the great sushi restaurants we have in Vancouver, I think it's something we do better than any other place in the world. I think a close second is dim sum, we got tons of 'em.....

A few weeks ago we found out how passionate some people are about Pizza Pizza . On Friday while checking out the Burnaby store at 7348 Kingsway, I was treated to four time world champion pizza spinner Juan Hermosillo just killin' it on the sidewalk.

It's a given that us Vancouver folk are big time sushi fans. We all have our usual haunts, of course: Tanpopo, Alfa on Richards, Yuji's, Sushi Bar on W.4th, Toshi on Main and 16th....

Well, news to some... other may have already noticed...nonetheless, very exciting! On the corner or Alberta Street and Broadway, right in Mount Pleasant, is going to be the new location of the last great hamburger stand.....

It has been a minute since I have posted on VIA but that is because I haven't had much to rave about till now. Blogging about restaurants can get very boring when you are eating meals that you would just call average. Mediocre food is easy to find.

This place is like T&T for Italian people. East Vancouver is chock full of great delis , we're blessed.

I used to work with this girl who was French...like from France. We made the usual, 'what is the difference?' type conversation about Canada and France, how many holidays the French got, why they are always protesting things...

If you haven't been to El Purgarcito on Hastings near Nanaimo you have not yet lived, my friend.

It's been a minute since I blew up anybody's spot... maybe the last time was when IGA Marketplace was officially crowned Vancouver's Ice Cream Sale Champion of the summer of 2009.
