Delicious if expensive reason to stop by Market Meats on 4th. I went for some kurobuta pork chops, a AAA Ny Steak and a Buffalo striploin instead (with these three adding up to less than one Wagyu steak). I will dream about it though!
I was walking down a long block on 4th yesterday afternoon, heading towards Alama. I shared the sidewalk with a couple approaching me in deep discussion. Way behind them a shape emerged and I made out a man in a chef’s jacket running full-out, the sight eerily similar to Robert Irvine in the Food Network’s [...]
The Vancouver underground restaurant scene now boasts 4 restaurants: 12B, Secret Supper, Swallow Tail Supper Club, and the newest entry, NFA.
Chef Steve of NFA invited me to review his food and I brought along 11 other Vancouver food bloggers to sample his 6 course feast. Being the nice fellow that he is, he gave us [...]

[ October 22, 2008 to October 25, 2008. ] Had me at the words “whole hog.”

To reserve your chance to pig [...]
Perched on 4th in the heart of Kitsilano, Sophie’s Cosmic Cafe is a popular brunch spot all through the year. It typically takes a few minutes to get a table, and longer waits are common on the weekend. When you are finally seated, chances are you will find yourself wrapped in a funky red booth, [...]
