The New Bohemian in Kitsilano

It appears I may have found a new hang out. Okay, so I didn’t really find it since The New Bohemian is the creation of Ivo Staiano and Paul Gibbons whom I had the pleasure of knowing from the Balthazar’s days.
When Paul and Ivo invited me to attend their grand opening I could not […]

Wally’s Burgers: A Sign of the Times

Wally’s Burgers has been a local icon since the 1960’s, when Kingsway was the strip that local hot rodders and car enthusiasts would cruise down in their muscle cars. I think Honda was still making rickshaws at the time. These same cruisers would stop into Wally’s Burgers and fuel up on their Deluxe […]

The Dot Com Diet: Lunch at Feenies

Met up with the Dot Com Boys again for a casual lunch at Feenies, one of the restaurants owned by the Canadian Iron Chef Rob Feenie. I’ve heard about their famous foie gras burger for some time now but I had yet to taste it. The $50 price tag also held me back. […]

Kent’s (Chinese) Kitchen

Was in the area of 41st and Victoria in Vancouver today and dropped into one of my favorite value local eateries, Kent’s Kitchen. KK has been around for as long as I could remember from it’s original restaurant in Vancouver’s Chinatown (which still has a thriving business), and this newer location opened as an […]

Wally’s Burgers Review

Yesterday, Stephen gave me a call after his workout and needed a boost in calories. I did as any good friend would and volunteered my companionship as he replenished his fat count and make another food review. After our experience with the wonderful Hulk burger, we decided to try out an old local burger […]

Memphis Blues again!

Was in North Vancouver today and decided to pay a visit to the newest addition to the Memphis Blues chain on the upper Lonsdale area. It was piss raining all day so my buddy Fouad (sounds like a terrorist but he’s not, lol) decided to drive. We book it down there and […]
