Revolver on Cambie between Hastings and Cordova


BEST new coffee joint in the hood!

This place is so fun...they make my coffee addiction look like a past time rather than a conviction :)

I buy all my beans here as the selection is crazy good.  Usually roasted within days before you buy they also will grind them for you if you haven't recently purchased a new kick ass grinder like me :) (Army n Navy on Cordova $29.99 has lots of settings and does an automatic grind)

Enjoy your java friends...if you go to Revolver you're sure to.
All utensils up!!!

Nelson the Seagull on Carrall by Cordova

You have to take this place in! Bring your bike you can park it INSIDE the restaurant :)


I came here with friends visiting from Mexico city ... The bacon on the side is not my dish!! Lol   The poached eggs are flawless every time I recommend the roasted tomato and mushroom add ons,





The bread is baked on site and the espresso is my favorite next to cafe Roma on the drive.





The muesli is made in house served here with almond milk and agave...a very trendy yet entirely humble joint all utensils up!! If I had one last wish then it would be....

Nicli Antica Pizzeria 62 E Cordova St. Vancouver, BC. V6A 1K2 604 669 6985

I realize this is not news to anyone who looooves food but this is the most amazing new joint in the city!  The worst thing about it is its conveniently located half a block from where i live AHHHHH! 

The dough is so so thin and airy and light and not a tummy acher!
 






I ALWAYS get the Margarita because its a veggie choice and its only $13 for the whole dang thing.  


I also ALWAYS pair with a glass of red A-Mano Primitivo

This is a die for joint...and the decor is my fav ... white on white ;P GO HERE NOW! ;)

Old Spaghetti Factory 53 Water Street Vancouver





I am not usually a fan of this place
but my sister, niece and daughter came
to visit and its one of the few truly family restaurants in the hood :)


 I was pleasantly impressed with the Thai Curry I had mine on spaghetti with prawns :)  I think if I had a half spoon I would have rated this 3.5 for pure consistency...you always know what to expect and when it comes to taking your whole family out..nieces and babies and all...thats a must!  (plus they give you crayons :)

Little Scarlett had the cheese tortellini, Sophie had a classic spaghetti and tomato sauce :)and my sister had a vegetarian lasagne all in all 3 utensils all the way up! :D
