Food and Drink

If you often find yourself walking around downtown after dinner, looking for a place to grab dessert, then you probably know all the standard options already.

If you're out in Port Moody/Poco this weekend (maybe on your way to find a street mole in Belcarra?) you should check out the Pocket Farmers Market outside the Port Moody rec centre...

There have been multiple posts about the Dutch Wooden Shoe on Cambie ( 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ) but nary a photo of the food there, so here you go! Two eggs and toast done Dutch style.

Unleash your inner chef at Vancouver's newest cooking school, The Dirty Apron .

The Zakkushi on Main and King Ed is their 3rd location. I had never been to either though if you've strolled along Denman, their first location i think, you've gone by it many times.

Whaaaat? There's a Vancouver blog called Chickens In Vancouver and they doing an Urban Chicken Workshop next Sunday!

So I was doing my weekly shopping up in the Heights and wholly crap...what's that smell? With the exceptions of hotdogs, there are very few opportunities for street meat, so when I smell fresh BBQ chicken on a Saturday morning, I take notice.

It's always annoyed me how excited people get when they see a line up...'hey...what's this about? It must be something good if everyone is in line....' The real sad thing that the best snarky comment I have is...'Yeah...

If you have access to a ladder and a love for cherries then it's your lucky weekend, my friend.
