Joey Broadway Review

on April 8, 2013 in Fairview

When it comes to dining out in Vancouver, I like to refer to the overall culinary scene as a gastronomic ecosystem. Regardless of who you are or what you like to eat, there will always be something for you. For me personally, my favourite restaurants tend to be those unique, one-of-a-kind establishments like Ajisai in […]

Vij’s Rangoli Restaurant Review

on December 15, 2011 in Fairview, Vegetarian

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 […]

Located on West 4th, at the foot of South Granville it was a “fine casual” setting and a rather unique and relaxing […]

Cheesecake Etc. Review

on May 19, 2011 in Dessert, Fairview

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, […]

Paul’s Place Omelettery Review

on May 12, 2011 in Breakfast, Brunch, Cafe, Diner, Fairview

Paul’s Place Omelettery is, as you would expect, famous for their omelettes. The restaurant always seems to receive great reviews on food blogs, Urbanspoon, Yelp – and even the Lonely Planet ranked it #17 out of 600 things to do in Vancouver. With such high accolades, we decided to check out Paul’s. With its green […]
