Cho Sun Korean BBQ
08.22.10 | Permalink | 3 Comments | By JonathanI love Korean food and often complain that I can’t find much in Vancouver. Cho Sun proves that sometimes you just have to leave gastown. On Kingsway, the dining room is charmingly down market and the prices match. The food is delicious and plentiful with excellent BBQ, Bibimbap and Pa-jeon (korean pancake). I want to [...]

Camel Burgers at the Local House, Dubai
07.22.10 | Permalink | 3 Comments | By ChristopherIn Dubai for the weekend I was lost for some well priced adventure. Skiing in malls and and going into the desert in 45 degrees get old as fast as they were thought up, and shopping generally gives me anxiety. As you can imagine, Dubai isn’t the place for me. On my last day I [...]

L’Abattoir
07.18.10 | Permalink | 5 Comments | By JonathanCentral Gastown is stealing hearts and minds with new restaurants and bars opening monthly. The newest addition L’Abbatoir sits next to Cork and Fin and a stone’s throw from Boneta, filling the space left by the old Irish Heather.

Swallow Tail Supper Club
06.28.10 | Permalink | 2 Comments | By JonathanIn great company, I attended the Swallow Tail Supper Club, one of Vancouver’s newest underground restaurants.

Although I did not know the menu ahead of us, we were given wine recommendations by course [...]

Carnegie Club
05.03.10 | Permalink | 4 Comments | By JonathanArriving after midnight in NYC, the famous burger joint in my hotel was closed. But only steps away I found the largest club sandwich I have ever seen. A real-deal deli since 1937, the Carnegie has salami hanging from the ceiling, walls plastered with aging celebrity photos, and is quick to serve up deliciously garlic [...]

Aburi & Oshi at Miku Restaurant
I was taken to Miku for a business lunch and shocked into attention by the food. I had to wonder why it took me so long to get there; this is not just another sushi restaurant.
Miku occupies the space that used to be an old lunch favorite, the Spotted Prawn. The long room makes good [...] -

judas goat taberna
03.20.10 | Permalink | 2 Comments | By JonathanWikipedia reads that a Judas goat is trained to lead sheep to slaughter while its own life is spared. And located in the middle of Gastown’s Blood Alley, it is perhaps an apt name for the new tapas bar from Scott Hawthorn and Sean Heather, the owners of the Irish Heather and Salt Tasting room, [...]

Restaurant Review
Kingyo
Kingyo occupies the higher end of the Vancouver izakaya scene and its chef has almost rock star status, known for wearing a playful face mask while cooking for a crowd. The interior has a lot of quirky detail, bamboo and textures. I don’t know why it took me so long to try it, but once [...]
