Since we thoroughly enjoyed our experience at The Bakehouse Dundarave in West Vancouver, we thought it would be appropriate to try its sister location, The Bakehouse in North Vancouver. Located in Edgemont Village, the cafe was a little difficult to find, since it’s actually located on Newmarket Drive and West Queens Road. The restaurant is […]

Cheesecake Etc. Review
Whenever we crave cheesecake, we always gravitate towards Cheesecake Etc. My sister-in-law first introduced us to this little gem years ago when we’d visit her from Victoria. Tucked away on South Granville, just before the Granville Street Bridge, lies this quaint little dessert spot. It’s a great date night place, with dark and romantic lighting, […]
Sweet Revenge Patisserie Review
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.

I remember thinking (as is the general consensus) that the company seemed like a copycat of the famous American Pinkberry […]
La Petite France Cafe Review
Just around the corner from our place is the home of a little French bakery & cafe appropriated called “La Petite France”. This authentic “Mini France” shop is located on Arbutus & 10th Avenue in Kitsilano. With calming light peach colored walls, French music softly playing in the background, and lovely artwork on the walls, […]
