Lucky for us that the chef of one of our favorite restaurants in Vancouver, Robert Belcham from Fuel Restaurant, was the chef that night. They set out a [...]]]></description>

Any place with a French 75 on the menu obviously has an appreciation for the Art of Mixing Drinks (it’s a book, look it up) and having been to this bar about 4-5 times, I can say it [...]]]></description>

Best cannoli &#8211; no &#8211; but not bad and definitely popular with the Commercial Drive crowd which was out and about in full force. Also tried a smaller pastry which [...]]]></description>

It’s in a great old heritage building, has been done inside to be casual yet rustic yet trendy at the same time.

Tried the classic Vera’s burgers &#8211; decent sized patties (although not slightly pink as stated that the patties should be in the brochure) which were reasonably juicy.
