Provence Marinaside – Vancouver, Yaletown

February 8th, 2010 · No Comments · Brunch, Vancouver

If you are strolling along the seawall, Provence Marinaside is a good place to stop for a bite to eat. If it is nice outside, one of the patio tables is a great place to eat, drink and people watch or be watched. Although it can be crowded, so be prepared to wait if you [...]

Thomas Haas (Kitsilano) – Vancouver, BC

November 16th, 2009 · No Comments · Baked Goods, Brunch, Cafe, Coffee, Favorites, Vancouver, dessert

Amazing. Not only does he produce the best pastries that I have had in North America – and better than many I have had in France, but he has replicated his business in North Vancouver and opened a Kitsilano branch. He will be busy. Saturday morning – about 11:30 (late start) – we pick up [...]

Medina Cafe – Vancouver, BC

November 11th, 2009 · No Comments · Brunch, Cafe, Coffee, Vancouver

Wednesday – Remembrance Day – mid-week brunch with M. Medina has been open for a while, and is owned by the same folks that own Chambar – and located right next door to the same. I’ve heard legendary stories about Medina’s brunch and waffles, so even though we knew we’d have to wait, we thought [...]

librerie.coop & Eataly – Bologna, Italy

November 9th, 2009 · No Comments · Bologna, Brunch, Cafe, Coffee, Favorites, Italian

This was probably my favourite store in Italy. It’s inside an old church that has had its inside torn out and about 4 floors of books and restaurants installed. It’s a huge bookstore, with at least 3 restaurants – one for sandwiches, one for pasta, and one that is a wine bar (there may be [...]

Rouge – Philadelphia, PA

November 3rd, 2009 · No Comments · Bistro, Brunch, Philadelphia, Western Food

Sunday morning, after another late night. I am stadium-ed out after the concert, Flyers game, and 76ers game, and the lads are off to see the Eagles play. I’m going to laze around town today, having some brunch, and taking a leisurely stroll through Philadelphia’s awesome art museums. I look up best brunches in Philadelphia [...]

Continental Mid-town – Philadelphia, PA

November 2nd, 2009 · No Comments · Brunch, Philadelphia, Western Food

I’ve said before that I think “lets just go here” is a recipe for disaster when walking around town in terms of food, but once in a while, it just works out – as it did at the Continental (another one of the Starr restaurants like Butcher & Singer). Breakfast after a late night. We [...]

The Melrose Diner – Philadelphia, PA

November 1st, 2009 · No Comments · Brunch, Cheap Eats, Inexpensive, Kid-friendly, Philadelphia, Western Food

Landed in Philly and hungry after a milk run from Vancouver. First things first: get good food. The Crown Plaza on Market Street had free wi-fi in the lobby, so I checked out ‘best breakfasts philadelphia’ online – there were no shortage of opinions and places, but none came up that were either close to [...]
