IHOP 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 […]

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 […]

Scotiabank Theatre Food Court
Published by June 24th, 2007 in Food Courts, Chain Restaurants and Downtown. 2 CommentsThe main reason I like going to see a show a the Scotiabank Theatre is because of the food. While most theatres have the usual selection of processed cheese soaked nachos and xxl boxes of junior mints, this location serves up fro yo, burritos, burgers, and even bubble tea. I’m certain it’s the lighting or […]

“Milestone’s?” you ask. “But isn’t it a chain?” Yes, it is- but they do a better job of it here in Yaletown than elsewhere. Abandon whatever conceptions of this place you had prior to visiting the Hamilton St. location (such as those established in the airport, mall…), as they’re not entirely accurate.
Now bear in mind […]

Metrotown Food Court
Published by June 24th, 2007 in Burnaby, Food Courts and Chain Restaurants. 0 CommentsA thought that pervades most when thinking about food courts is that once you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all. In the case of Metrotown, I’ll admit that this is true- but only to an extent.
The fact is the Metrotown food court (and if you live in Vancouver and go shopping it’s likely you’ve been […]
Denny’s On Burrard
Published by June 24th, 2007 in Diners, Open Late, Breakfast Haunts, Chain Restaurants and Downtown. 2 CommentsThe best and the most happening Denny’s in all of Vancouver is the one located at the corner of Burrard and Smithe. You can’t miss it — it’s right across from the Scotiabank Theatre. On most morning’s Denny’s is packed — but the service is fast and you’ll get a table and your food […]
Death by Chocolate (On Broadway)
Published by June 24th, 2007 in Dessert and Chain Restaurants. 0 CommentsNo one has ever died from Chocolate*, which is why this restaurant (which only sells chocolate dishes by the way) is able to be so coy in its name selection. If someone wrote “Death by Nut Allergens”, then there would be some rebranding in order.
Upon entering this restaurant on Broadway (one of a few throughout […]

Cantina: Taco Time
Published by June 24th, 2007 in Chain Restaurants, Downtown and Mexican Food. 1 CommentWould it be so sick if one of my all time favourite restaurants in Vancouver happened to be a Taco Time? I’m not afraid to admit it, the Taco Time on Granville street at Smithe is no ordinary Taco Time. It’s a Taco Time Cantina, and with those additional three syllables comes a world of […]
