![Butcher and Bullock – Dine Out Vancouver 2020 [OVERVIEW]](/content/images/size/w584/2020/02/butcher-and-bullock-blog.jpg)
Dine Out Vancouver comes and goes in a flash because 2 weeks passes by really quickly. The hardest part is choosing a restaurant. Thankfully for me, I had that choice narrowed down to any of the Donnelly Group restaurants, which, to my delight, were not all offering the exact same menu. »
![Sushi Bar Maumi – The Best $75 Omakase in Vancouver [REVIEW]](/content/images/size/w584/2019/12/sushi-bar-maumi-blog.jpg)
It's time for another omakase review on this food blog! My sister was in town for her annual visit and because she visits from the prairie province of Alberta, Vancouver sushi is always at the top of her dining list. For this encounter, we settled on Sushi Bar Maumi, a restaurant that's known for... »
Locus on Main Street is one of those blink-and-you-miss-it restaurants. It's viewable in plain sight but easily lost amongst the mesh of businesses lining the street. In other words, it's a restaurant you know when you're "in the know", or when... »
One of Vancouver's favourite fried chicken spots has begun an expansion into pub grub in the form of burgers. Downlow, known for its Downlow Chicken Shack on Commercial Drive has recently replaced "Monarch Burger" with its own burger concept, aptly named "Downlow Burger". »
"Mate". This word is often defined as slang for "friend", commonly used in Australia and Great Britain. Evidently, it is also the name of M8. Featuring a mix of Chinese and Italian hybrid dining, this menu is like few others in Vancouver and it's recently revamped its dinner menu. »

![Dachi – A "One of Everything" Kind of Dinner in Vancouver [REVIEW]](/content/images/size/w584/2019/07/dachi-blog.jpg)
Some restaurants have a few core food staples with which they'll make various takes on. At Dachi, the choices on the menu touch a variety of palates and are meant to be served en masse. At the last food blogger gathering I attended, we made Dachi our destination and ordered basically everything. »
![Masayoshi – Once Upon a $120 Omakase in Vancouver [REVIEW]](/content/images/size/w584/2019/05/masayoshi-blog.jpg)
Anyone familiar with Tojo's in Vancouver knows that Chef Masayoshi Saba left to form his own restaurant, Masayoshi, in the Fraserhood. As I'm sitting in my hotel room in Tokyo, I can't help but reflect on this dining experience that I paid $120 for back in December 2018. »

Most ramen restaurants these days operate as a single stop for a classic bowl of Japanese noodles and a side of gyoza, and that's okay. For a little more variety though, Asaka Ramen in Richmond combines the best of Japanese worker dinner and dessert in a new restaurant concept. »

I don't know about you but I'm a big fan of Moroccan cuisine. I can imagine a vacation where the Mediterranean winds howl through the souks (marketplaces) of Marrakesh and I'm just trying to find a place where I won't get ripped off on the couscous. Thankfully in Vancouver... »
![The Greek by Anatoli – Classy Greek in Gastown, Vancouver [OVERVIEW]](/content/images/size/w584/2019/04/the-greek-gastown-blog.jpg)
I was trying to think of a blog post title to better describe The Greek Gastown but the shorthand name really says it all. It's Greek food in Vancouver's historic Gastown neighbourhood. It's the only Greek restaurant in Gastown, actually. »
