Whenever there’s a long lineup outside world renowned Vij’s Restaurant (which seems to be all the time!) its sister restaurant Rangoli, right next door, is the perfect alternative. Located on West 11th Avenue in the South Granville area of Vancouver, Vij’s Rangoli is great for lunch, casual dinners and take-out, and uniquely doubles as a restaurant and [...]
Sunflower Café – An Organic Gem On Crescent Beach
on September 12, 2011 in Cafe, Organic, Surrey, Vegan, Vegetarian
How beautiful was this past weekend? My goodness! To take advantage of the gloriously hot & sunny Sunday, we headed over to Crescent Beach near White Rock (but technically apart of South Surrey). A bit of a lengthy drive, we were famished once we finally arrived from the roughly one-hour trip from Kits. There are [...]

Olympia Pizza – Greek Restaurant Review
on May 27, 2011 in Greek, Kitsilano, Vegetarian
Friends of ours, a Canadian couple who were visiting from Singapore, were craving Greek food because it’s hard to come by in South East Asia. Since we had all previously eaten early dinners, we weren’t overly famished. So, we decided to share a few dishes between the four of us at Olympia Pizza. The restaurant [...]

Chipotle Mexican Grill – Northgate (Seattle, WA)
on May 17, 2011 in International, Mexican, Organic, Seattle, Vegan, Vegetarian
We usually try and hit up as many Chipotles as possible during our trips to the States (yeah, we’re crazy like that). Their Northgate Mall location is superb – consistent food (large portions, great quality) and excellent service (friendly, quick, and efficient). Chipotle Mexican Grill only uses the freshest of ingredients, so none of its [...]
The Templeton Diner Review
on April 14, 2011 in Breakfast, Brunch, Burgers, Diner, Downtown, Organic, Vegan, Vegetarian
Lately, it feels as though we’ve been on an episode of Diners, Drive-ins and Dives! We recently tried a couple decent diners: The Red Wagon diner in East Vancouver and Joe’s Grill on 4th Avenue. Prior to those restaurants, we dined at the epitome of a great dive – Evelyn’s Cafe and Grill. A while [...]
