Café Régalade – Kits French Bistro

We’ve always been fans of La Régalade located in West Van.  Their French Onion Soup is to die for… not to mention their Beef Bourguignon and Grilled Prime Rib.  The main problem is that West Van is a bit far for us to travel. 

Tamarind Hill (New West) – Malaysian Food Near the Nexus of the Universe

After a long hike at Stanley Park, we came home hungry and tired.  Memories of the roti canai at Malay Curry House gave me a craving for some Malaysian food so we headed out to the small New West location of Tamarind Hill on 6th Avenue.

Ramie’s Greek Restaurant

I’ve mentioned a few times before that Ramie’s is our go-to place for Greek food near our place.  While we’ve dined in this small little restaurant on Kingsway before, more often than naught, we opt for take-out.

Kalamata Greek Taverna

So, what do you call a Greek restaurant that doesn’t serve Moussaka?  Well, in our case, you call it Kalamata Greek Taverna.  It’s not that they don’t have it listed on their menu though.  

Taverna Greka – New Renovations

Taverna Greka is located almost directly across from Stefanos on Columbia Street in New Westminster and offers a clear view of the Fraser River while you dine. 

Vassilis Souvlaki Greek Taverna

As I’ve mentioned before, I’ve worked in the South Burnaby area for about 6-7 years now but haven’t really gotten around to trying a lot of the restaurants in the neighbourhood.  When I read Eating in Vancouver’s post of Vassilis Souvlaki a few months ago, I knew right away which restaurant they were talking about as I’ve driven by it many times.

Anatolia’s Gate

I can’t believe that I’ve been working a few blocks away from Anatolia’s Gate for about 6 years now and I’ve never tried them out.  Thanks to Taya and Gary’s recent review, I just had to try the spot out for myself.

Columbus Restaurant

We didn’t really feel like cooking tonight and, as luck would have it, a flyer for Columbus Restaurant came in the junk mail today.  Columbus Restaurant is a small little restaurant tucked away in a little corner of Killarney Square.  When you enter the restaurant, it actually looks larger because of the huge mirror on the wall that makes the room seem twice as large.

Dockside Restaurant – Revisit

I seem to be doing a lot of revisits lately… this latest one is at Dockside Restaurant.  After my last review, their restaurant manager invited us to come by and take a look at their newly renovated patio but we never managed to go back during the day.  We did, however, manage to drop by last weekend.

Dockside Restaurant

I think the first time I visited the Dockside Restaurant was a number of years ago when I had a course at the Granville Island Hotel.  It’s kind of on the far end of Granville Island so it’s not unusual that you would miss it if you didn’t know it was there.  It’s become one of my favourite restaurants in Granville Island (along with The Sandbar) so when the Groupon came out a while ago, we had to jump for it.
