Firkin on Danforth with Friends and Family

October 21, 2016 by Suzie the Foodie 6 Comments

Shannon and Jamie introduced me to Firkin on Danforth during my visit. I had to go because I heard so much about the chicken and waffles! I actually ordered Butcher On The Rye. Jamie ordered the chicken and waffles but doubled the brussel sprouts and held back on the waffle! She let me have a taste of the chicken. OMG, […]

$14.99 Steak at Montana’s #SteakEveryDay

August 17, 2016 by Suzie the Foodie 6 Comments

Back in May I told you about Montana’s $14.99 7 oz steak deal and I finally had a chance to try it myself. The closest Montana’s to us is in Coquitlam, where we used to live before we joined the navy. It is not exactly close to us now in Vancouver so we made a […]

Turk’s Coffee Bar On The Drive Canada Day

July 3, 2016 by Suzie the Foodie 2 Comments

I had no idea that we would end up at Turk’s Coffee Bar on Canada Day. Reg’s kung fu school put on performances in Victoria Park just off The Drive. Reg did a fantastic job not only at playing the gong for the lion dance but doing off his sword form. After chomping on popsicles, I […]

Cactus Club Cafe is a foodie icon in Vancouver. Led by Chef Rob Feenie, Canada’s first Iron Chef, this is THE place to be on a sunny Friday afternoon for lunch.

Restaurant Review: Huang’s Beef Noodle Restaurant

March 9, 2016 by Suzie the Foodie 6 Comments

Huang’s Beef Noodle Restaurant has been at 6940 Victoria Drive at 54th Avenue forever! At least since I used to live across the street from it back in 2000, the first time I lived in Vancouver. I had never been inside and wanted to change that on an unforgivingly wet and cold winter day. I also […]

Lunch at Breka on Davie Street, Vancouver

March 1, 2016 by Suzie the Foodie 14 Comments

Breka Bakery & Café was supposed to be my oasis. I went downtown for an important medical appointment and, as usual, ended up being super early. I thought this would give me time to treat myself to lunch and the place was packed so clearly, it was popular. I thought that was a good sign. The […]

Restaurant Review: El Caracol Cafe on Victoria Drive, Vancouver

February 7, 2016 by Suzie the Foodie 5 Comments

You will find El Caracol Cafe at 5183 Victoria Drive at 36th Avenue. In some ways it is hard to miss. So colourful and fun on the outside. For the longest time I wanted to go inside and check it out. My friend Kris and I decided to open up our own little eBay store and had done some […]
