The recent opening of the fourth Burgoo restaurant in Metro Vancouver, Burgoo Kitsilano, combined with the fact that it’s cold and snowy outside, reminded me that we hadn’t posted about our dinner experience from a while ago at Burgoo Main Street. “Burgoo” is a term used for many types of comforting and hearty meat & [...]
London Pub Review
on December 16, 2011 in Main Street, Pub
London Pub Located in a heritage building on Main Street in Chinatown, London Pub is a funky space that does a lovely job of incorporating new elements within its old-world features, like tall exposed brick arches and floor to ceiling heritage windows. This historic neighbourhood pub was established in 1903 and was constructed during Vancouver’s [...]
Au Petit Cafe Review
on May 25, 2011 in Main Street, Vietnamese
Au Petit Cafe is a little Vietnamese restaurant on Main Street (between East 32nd & 33rd). Many Vietnamese sub joints in Vancouver are true hole-in-the-walls, but this one in particular just seems extra (ghetto) spartan. Nothing really in particular, maybe it’s the ’80s pink decor, but it’s more like just the vibe of the restaurant. [...]
Sweet Revenge Patisserie Review
on May 6, 2011 in Dessert, Main Street
Sweet Revenge Patisserie is a unique little dessert house encompassing a Victorian-esque theme. It has a warm and very dimly lit interior – with red wallpaper and old oil lamps. The small room houses antique looking furniture, including floral patterned armchairs and dark wooden tables and chairs. This desserts-only restaurant specializes in “good old-fashioned home-made [...]
Locus Restaurant & Lounge Review
on April 28, 2011 in Brunch, Main Street
Locus is a really popular brunch spot on the weekends in the thriving Main Street neighborhood of Vancouver. I’m actually rather surprised that we haven’t been here previously, given my love for brunch. Not only a favorite for breakfast and lunch crowds, the restaurant is also a hip late night eatery & bar serving up [...]
Legendary Noodle House Main Street Review
on April 13, 2011 in Chinese, Main Street
What first drove us to Legendary Noodle House was seeing the restaurant featured on Rachael Ray, and Bob Blumer’s Glutton For Punishment. I could swear I saw Legendary Noodle on an episode of Anthony Bourdain’s No Reservations as well? Perhaps not… Legendary Noodle House has two locations in Vancouver – one on Main Street and [...]
Cambie Vietnamese Restaurant Review
on February 14, 2011 in Main Street, Vietnamese
Cambie Vietnamese Restaurant is not actually located (as you would assume) on Cambie Street in Vancouver. In fact, it resides on Main Street & King Edward. The restaurant moved from Cambie to Main during the Canada Line construction. Gary is a regular at this joint since he used to frequent with the Dot Com Pho [...]
Crave On Main Restaurant Review
on October 24, 2010 in Brunch, Main Street
We just returned from brunch at Crave on Main restaurant this afternoon. We arrived at around 1pm and since it’s a busy Sunday, they still had a line up. Although, we only had to wait for approximately 10 minutes to be seated. The restaurant itself is very tiny but nicely decorated. Crave’s host was very [...]
