Surprised that lobsterpasta.jpg isn't whored up in here.

a few of my favourites:
-candia taverna
-panos greek taverna
-aqua riva
-marine pub

I find the quality of the restaurants in the book have gone down over the years... every year when I want to use the ones that I enjoyed the year before, theyre not in the book anymore..

I checked out that Tepanyaki place in Steveston and it was pretty good. Sorry, too lazy to grab the book for the name. You need to use the card, so it's in the glossy section.

Others I typically use:

La Masia
Washington Avenue Grill

Black Forest Restaurant is now closed, so that ones useless.

Another one I liked was Portobello Ristorante on Broadway across the street from the Joeys. Great pasta.

I went to Amarcord during the olympics and had the lobster pasta...yum! Unfortunately, they didn't honour the Entertainment card during the olympics :p

yah you have to be careful about special "situations" that arent mentioned in the book. i've had a couple coupons rejected because it was a "holiday" in the country of the cuisine I was at. I think one of them was at Pepitas on west 4th, rejected because of a mexican holiday. I would about these kind of situations ahead of time just in case...

i hate the marine pub.
been there twice. first time the wings were nasty... 4 flavors all taste exactly the same.
2nd time, they had a live band. you cant even hear the person sitting next to you because they play so god damn loud.

Are you sure, crayon? It's still listed at the bottom of their dinner menu at http://www.amarcord.ca/. Of course, it's possible that their website hasn't been updated in a while...

racerman88 06-02-2010 08:57 PM

lots of good restaurants in the book

Ah, sorry! You know what they still might. I had lunch there last week and didn't even think twice there's a dinner menu. I will have to ask the owner next time. Will keep you updated.

Is the spotted prawn still in the book? They had a 2 for 1 a couple years back and the food was pretty decent.
