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.
New Pork Items at Famoso Neapolitan Pizzeria
Famoso has always been on our list of authenticity when it comes to Neapolitan pizzas. Some may find its dough too soft or soggy but that was the texture of the Neapolitan pizzas we had in Naples, the birth place of this pizza variety. When Famoso recently launched new menu items, we gladly accepted the invitation to give them a try.
Guu Garlic – The one that started it all for me
With different Japanese izakayas popping up around town, it's been forever since I last visited a Guu location. I remember the Thurlow location was my very first izakaya that I've visited in Vancouver and it was such a unique experience: the screaming servers, the exchange of Japanese throughout the room and the long list of small plates that we could order. It was so much fun I took a visiting guest to Guu Garlic after. Now, years later, I'm back.
[Food Truck] Via Tevere Neapolitan Express
When TC checked out the Via Tevere food truck, he wasn't very impressed. But I've heard good things about it so I was quite torn. The other day I was really craving a hearty sandwich and it struck me that Saltimbocca is a sandwich! Redemption time!
Weekend Happy Hour at Jimmy’s Tap House
Taking PaPa Lam to a Canucks game on one Saturday brought us to downtown for a quick bite. We wanted something closer to the stadium so we ended up at Jimmy's Tap House. I have only been there once for a power lunch and I thought its fish tacos weren't too bad.
