Miura’s offering is straightforward, waffle sandos (came from the Japanese word サンドウィッチ Sandowicchi aka sandwich), coffee & tea and its flavoured milks.

Afternoon Tea at 900 West Lounge @ Fairmont Vancouver
Posted in Chocolate, Dessert, Joyce, Lunch, Sandwiches, Snacks, Tea, Vancouver, tagged 900 West Lounge, afternoon tea, Fairmont Hotel Vancouver, Tea at the Castle on March 21, 2012 | 4 Comments »
Part of a girls’ day out, I took Mom to the Castle – Fairmont Hotel Vancouver – for its famous Afternoon Tea. Thanks to a 2-for-1 deal coupon, it only cost me half of the original price. Even though each Fairmont property offers afternoon tea service, prices vary from one to another. At Fairmont Vancouver, it is $36 per person (plus tax and gratuity).
Traditionally, high tea/afternoon tea is usually a light meal between lunch and dinner, to get you through the afternoon. The tea menu at Fairmont Vancouver actually has a decent amount of food per person, so we made it a lunch date for a Saturday afternoon.
Lazy Brunch at Acme Cafe

It was one of those mornings, where you roll out of bed and you think, “Damn, I really don’t want to do anything. I’m hungry, but I don’t want to cook.” Not sure about you, but I get those days often – not that I always succumb to them.
So of course, cocoon myself into my blankets like a hot dog for a few more minutes before reaching over to text my friend if she wanted some brunch. On her recommendation, we headed out to Acme Cafe, which is in that sort of shady part between Chinatown/Gastown area.
La Brasserie Street @ Street Food City

As part of the Dine Out Vancouver festivities, a new component called “Street Food City” was introduced this year. It’s a gathering of a number of food carts in Vancouver at the Vancouver Art Gallery plaza for just three days during the DOV period. Thankful to have a boss who enjoys food as much as I do, we made a trip down to Street Food City as part of our team building exercise.
After checking out all the food carts, we have decided to try La Brasserie Street. My boss actually has tried it before, but he did recommend this cart and said he would have it again. For me, sadly I haven’t done my part in visiting all the food carts in town, even though my office is close to many of them, so I was happy to give this a try.
Max’s Burgers – Sneak Preview (Opening Jan 23)
Posted in By Invitations, Casual, Dinner, Food Bloggers, Joyce, Lunch, Quick Service, Vancouver, tagged Cambie Street, Chicken Thigh Burger, King Crab, Max's Burgers, Po'Boy, Poutine, Redpath Foods, Sloppy Joe on January 19, 2012 | 1 Comment »
We were invited to the media event for Max’s Burgers, which is opening next Monday, January 23. The restaurant is at Cambie and 8th, the location that was formerly the Max’s Deli. Owners Bruce and David transformed it into this burger concept and invited Chef Connor Butler to come onboard.
At this event we were served several items from its regular menu, as well as beverages, only in smaller size (e.g. slider vs burger). Since the portion is smaller, this may not necessarily reflect the true quality of the food, but I think it serves as a good indication of what you could expect at Max’s.
