I give this 2018 Most Pretentious Cafe Award to Dark Horse Espresso Bar with a smile on my face. The Location I walked into their 215 Spadina Ave Suite 102 location wearing a pretty typical Toronto outfit but I was also wearing my cupcake backpack.

Restaurant Review: Breka Bakery & Café on Fraser

August 30, 2017 by Suzie the Foodie 2 Comments

I will admit that my introduction to Breka Bakery & Café was not a positive one. I went to their downtown Davie location and had one of the worst sandwiches of my life (if not the worst) and the customer service was crap. A friend of mine wrote praises of their Fraser location and it […]

What could be better than spending the afternoon at the Vancouver Art Gallery‘s café (aptly named Gallery Café) talking about publishing, food, zumba and embroidery? I can’t think of anything! We checked out the gallery before going to the café to see if it was busy. The lineup went out the door and around the block! OK, […]

When our friends Mike and Jen said there was a new Second Cup in Bayers Lake, I could not believe it. Neither could their web site. This spot it so new they are not listed yet! I adore Second Cup and one thing about the HRM that drives me crazy is there are just not enough […]
