Brunch Crawl Kitsilano [Dine Out Vancouver 2015]

We were invited to check out Vancouver Foodster's Kitsilano Brunch Crawl this past weekend, part of the Dine Out Vancouver Festival. It's similar to Tasting Plates, except it happens on a weekend morning, perfect timing for brunch. In 4 hours, we visited 6 restaurants in the neighbourhood.

The Wild Fig at Executive Plaza Hotel Coquitlam

Perhaps with the exception of downtown Vancouver and some Richmond hotels, hotel dining doesn't usually have a good reputation. That doesn't stop me from being curious and wanting to try.

Gyu-Kaku Japanese BBQ Broadway – Great Variety of Meat on the Grill

Gyu-Kaku serves an a la carte BBQ menu with a huge selection of meat and veggie dishes to choose from. In addition to grillable items, they also have appetizers as well as rice and noodles to wrap up your meal. Oh, how about grilled desserts?

[Recipe] Dirty Apron Scones for Your New Year’s Day Brunch

As part of our review of The Dirty Apron Cookbook, we tried the recipe of the Dirty Apron Scones. I was very impressed by how easy the recipe was, and for making it for the first time, how great the scones turned out. This will be a good recipe to prepare ahead of time and just finish it off in the morning after recovering from all the champagne and drinks!
