Authentic Italian joints like Cafe Roma or Joe’s pepper the street and serve up some rich, thick, crema topped goodness. Places like Prado Cafe, Continental Coffee and JJ Bean have not only great coffee, […]

Las Margaritas on the Cheap
Published by December 28th, 2007 in Cheap, Kitsilano, Mexican Food, Stellar Patios and Ethnic Food. 0 CommentsLas Margaritas on West 4th is an awesome place for a night of fun food and drinks - but it’s never exactly cheap. Add up a few pitchers of sangria, a round of tequila shots, and a platter or two of chimichangas, and you’ve racked up a hefty bill.
Living across the street, we seem to […]

Spud.ca - Organic Grocery Delivery Service
Published by December 28th, 2007 in Free Delivery, Organic, Groceries and Vegetarian. 0 CommentsRecently we signed up for the grocery delivery service Spud.ca. At first we felt a little bit ‘yuppie’ ordering organic groceries online and having them delivered to our door- but we got over that pretty fast and haven’t looked back since.
Spud.ca is a convenient way of getting fresh, local and organic produce (and other groceries) […]

IHOP on Kingsway
Published by November 14th, 2007 in Burnaby, Breakfast Haunts and Chain Restaurants. 0 CommentsIHOP is like Denny’s melancholy older brother. Both serve up the same greasy breakfast fare, but IHOP feels just a little bit more depressing somehow. I suppose it’s due to the lack of claw toy machines in the lobby.
Located at 5137 Kingsway, just East of Metrotown, IHOP #0311 in Burnaby is much like any of […]

Breakfast at Joe’s Grill in Kits
Published by June 25th, 2007 in Kitsilano, Diners and Breakfast Haunts. 2 CommentsWe used to end up at Joe’s Grill on 4th out of desperation. The lineup at Sophies was halfway down the block and the servers at Hell’s Kitchen were too surly or stoned to know that it was opening time. Sheer laziness often prevented us from venturing much further and we’d wander on into Joe’s.

A&W at Broadway & Commercial
Published by June 25th, 2007 in Avoid At All Costs, Cheap and Chain Restaurants. 0 CommentsI’ve never been a particularly big fan of A&W. Their heartwarming commercials make me want to choke on my own Papa Burger vomit and their chicken burgers always taste somewhat raw. However, those frosted mugs filled to the brim with creamy, icy, rootbeer usually make it worth the risk of ecoli.
There are ample A&Ws in […]
