On July 18th, Eating in Vancouver & the World was invited out to Kits to sample the brand new menu at Establishment Lounge by Executive Chef Victor Bongo. Before attending the event, I took a quick peek at the new menu attached to the press alert and was quite surprised at what I saw. Unlike […]

In a foodie’s paradise like Vancouver, one could literally eat out at a different restaurant every day for an entire year and not even make a dent in the overall culinary ecosystem.

Guu With Garlic Izakaya Review
Out of the six Guu izakaya locations on the Lower Mainland, we’ve previously eaten at Guu with Otokome in Gastown and Guu’s original location on Thurlow. Most recently we checked out the second oldest Guu restaurant, Guu with Garlic on Robson Street. This popular Japanese tapas eatery boasts an amusing concept: “Garlic is sexy”. Sexy […]

Guu With Otokomae (Gastown) Review
Guu is an ever growing izakaya empire because there are now six Guus around Vancouver (Thurlow, Nelson, Robson, Denman, Gastown, and Richmond), two in Toronto, and even one in China! Gastown’s Guu With Otokomae was the second Guu location that we tried, and the first was actually Guu’s original location on Thurlow. (We’ve since visited […]
Elements Urban Tapas Parlour Review (Whistler, BC)
We dined at Elements Urban Tapas Parlour on Friday evening, after our awesome experience at Bearfoot Bistro’s Belevdere Ice Room. A few highlights of the night were Elements Signature Bruschetta ($10) and Grilled “Butler” Steak & Two Tone Frites ($13). I forgot to snap photos of our dinner, but we ended up returning for breakfast on […]
Suika Izakaya Review
We attempted to make a reservation at Suika on a previous occasion, but the restaurant was fully booked. Fortunately we managed to secure a table for an early seating last Saturday evening (after our long walk, lunch at Taco Shack, and dessert at Dairy Queen in Kits). Sister restaurant to the famous Kingyo on Denman, […]
