Heard about this guy on the news.

Quoted: The journey of Sean Aiken, a Vancouver man, seaching for his passion. He's working one job every week for 1 year.

I've been meaning to look this up for years.

Quoted: The flashing green indicates that the signal is not currently in use. As soon as a pedestrian pushes the button to trigger the signal, the light changes to solid green for a short time before entering the normal yellow/red/green sequence, then returns to flashing green until another crossing is requested; however, in some places such as Vancouver, it goes directly from flashing green to yellow, leaving out the solid green sequence.

Nice breakfast place in Vancouver. Nostalgic decor.

Quoted: Every inch of canary yellow wall space in this cafe is covered with vintage toys, souvenirs, photos and mementos

Ended up eating here last night. Summary: great French food without the "snootiness". It was a little pricey ($50 a head including wine) due to the unfavorable exchange rate:(

Quoted: Bistrot Bistro introduces traditional French country cuisine to contemporary Vancouver design, and marries the intimacy and warmth of casual dining with the class of Kitsilano. A French dining experience like it was meant to be: convivial and comfortable with no snootiness allowed.

Made reservation for this place tonight.

Quoted: We are proud to introduce the very FIRST Afghan restaurant in Canada, Family Owned & Operated Since 1974.
...
Our menu is a sampling of the many fine foods in Afghanistan. Every entrée featured on this menu is carefully prepared as if it is being cooked in an Afghan kitchen.

Some of the best gelato I've had. Very creamy, fresh, and flavorful. There are a few locations in Vancouver.

Quoted: Mondo Gelato - the best gelato in vancouver, b.c. Our Gelato based cakes are a wonder to taste and see, especially our Mondo Panetone...

Went here today for dinner. Wasn't too impressed with the price/portions although the food was okay. Apparently, this restaurant is best known for the crab -- and we should have ordered accordingly.

Thanks J. Will see if I can convince my friends to try this out when I'm in Vancouver today for the auto show. Everyone raves about Vij's.

Quoted: Vij's Rangoli sells frozen and refrigerated ready-to-eat Indian dishes as well as freshly roasted and ground Indian spices. Rangoli's dishes were originally developed at world renowned Vij's Restaurant.
