Also gota add the beer was flat and watered down! (ordered 2 pitchers Sapporo):mad: Dae Rae Oak - 8/10 - Solid.. I can never get enough of the BBQ ribs there.. the only thing i order actually haha - Also my gf's beef stone pot was loaded.. I swear there was more meat then rice.. but this might have been cause they were really busy earlier and ran outa a lot of side dishes (only got 3 but usually get around 5-6) |
Boathouse Richmond 9/10. It was the Valentines menu today. We both enjoyed it a lot. Everything was done right and tasted great. Service was awesome as well. |
Sushi California (North Road) 6/10 Seriously do not understand why people love this place so much online, sashimi was frozen, rolls were mostly rice, rice was mushy and bland. Not bad value for money but sushi garden and nao sushi >>>> sushi california. They serve a strange tea too, maybe I'm just not used to it. Menu is pretty generic nothing great about it only reason it passes is the waitress was pretty hot and service was not bad |

Ended up eating at Dockside on granville island last night for valentines day. Overall I'd give it a 9/10 (not much of a food critque though :P) Food tasted really good, presentation was also good, the service was great, and the view looked really nice.

Kibune Sushi @ Kits 7.5/10 presentation was great, service was friendly.... the ingredients seemed fresh as well. why the low mark? the service was really slow... plus a couple of pieces of sashimi were wet... which caused me to raise an eyebrow or two... |
^^^ Kibune has really gone downhill in the past few years, unfortunately. Their quality control isn't what it used to be. |
yeah i was surprised that the tuna was wet.. like left a wet mark on the dish wet... -___-. though the salmon served w/ ikura was a nice touch. |

The place smelled like bleach and incense, everything inside was pink and it was so cold we had to leave our coats on while we ate. GF ordered beef pho, I got grilled lemongrass chicken and pork patty on rice and we both got a fried roll and ice coffee. The broth tasted okay but there was definately some msg in there. I didn't have any beef but my GF said it tasted off and only ate 2 pieces. My grilled chicken was decent but nothing to write home about. The pork patty tasted stale and I only had 1 bite. Spring rolls were a bit greasy but tasted okay. Ice coffee was super weak. I'm actually drinking a frappe from Starbucks w/ extra espresso, just to taste some real coffee. Overall, 3/10...will not go back. |
Just got back from Miku in downtown Vancouver with my g/f. I'm still pretty stuffed as I'm typing this out. First item we had was the Atlantic Salmon Sashimi. It has so much flavour and very fresh. http://img815.imageshack.us/img815/9...monsashimi.jpg Next item is the Aburi Sashimi. Again, it has so much flavour and very fresh. I didn't have to use any sauce or wasabi. http://img253.imageshack.us/img253/5...urisashimi.jpg Next item is the Sablefish Saikyoyaki. It is very tasty and fresh. The skin is amazing. The fish just melts in your mouth. http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/8...aikyoyaki1.jpg http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/518...aikyoyaki2.jpg Next is the Premium Aburi. This was actually quite filling. It packed a lot of flavour and punch. This dish is just amazing. http://img714.imageshack.us/img714/8...emiumaburi.jpg Then we had the Red Wave Roll. It is sweet to the taste and has plenty of flavour. http://img809.imageshack.us/img809/2392/redwaveroll.jpg The last item we had was the Coal Harbour Roll. The ebi on top is so yummy. http://img814.imageshack.us/img814/3...arbourroll.jpg Overall ambience is very nice, but it does get a bit noisy from the customers and staff. Total price before taxes is $130'sh. Not cheap, but not overly expensive. Definately worth going again. |
honolulu cafe : 7/10 rice, soup , love their sweet&sour pork chops, beef+beans lol not bad for the price imo |
Pink Peppercorn 10/10. This is what west coast dining should taste like. None of that DOV bullshit e.g. Provence, Dockside, Chambar, etc. Food and service were excellent. It was also a nice touch when the chef actually comes out and chat with his customers! Bread with lobster oil + balsamic: 1st time, interesting flavours Lobster bisque: tasty, a little bit on the salty side but kind of expected Trio tartare: didn't really like it because the dish was raw. Still good though Char fish entree: very tasty, excellent presentation. Sockeye salmon entree: nicely done, just the way it should be. Chef put his efforts into it. Not some assembly line crap. Good service, the server always checked up and professional. (it's not those hot chick servers showing cleavage) Bill came and they also gave us some chocolate cover strawberries, leftovers from yesterday (vday). Will go back and try other stuff. Fyi: 1.5lb lobster today was $32. Reasonably priced for a white restaurant. Posted via RS Mobile |

ive eaten a lot of pho and been to Vietnam twice and i love it. |

If it tastes like Pho Hoa, it tastes like Pho Hoa. In fact, I don't even know how can pho be any worse than Pho Hoa because that in itself is already rock bottom! :lol I've known many friends and colleagues from work who have gone to Vietnam. Each and every one of them have come back only to say that it is different and there is no "standard" especially in comparison to what's available here. |

i meant it as i have had the pho that is served here and the authentic pho that is how it makes my OPINION more valid. im in search of a 8/10 or better compared to this 3/10. |

Looks farmed to me. |

If you like it, you should continue to go there - it's just not for me. 90% of the Vietnamese places I like are in E.Van. Kim Phung Pho Quyen le petit saigon pho vin bao chao (fried rolls only) |
