Cork and Fin

It was Mom’s birthday this month so Pretty Sis and I took her and some other family members to a place interestingly called Cork and Fin in Gastown.  I guess by that name it means they specialize in wines and seafood?? They are a participant of the Let’s Go For Dinner program which gives you [...]

Water St. Cafe

I’ve always liked Water St. Cafe in Gastown.  It is a relatively affordable restaurant with a nice atmosphere and good food.  This year they’re celebrating their 21st anniversary so they were offering a Whole Lobster entree for just $20.  I of course took advantage of this. Upon entering the restaurant, I found it was quite [...]

Let’s Go For Dinner: r.tl

Eat ‘n About was sent an invitation to partake in the Grand Opening Media Access party a while ago.  And it indeed was a while ago.  [...]

Let’s Go For Dinner: Coast Restaurant

It was another Let’s Go For Dinner event for us.  We wanted to go to Downtown again and so we picked a restaurant that was within walking distance from the Canada Line station/Pacific Centre.  This time we chose Coast Restaurant. We made reservations for 5:45pm so it wasn’t that busy as it was quite early [...]

Sanafir

Let’s Go for Dinner and Aquarium! Part 2

Look familiar? We planned to have dinner in Downtown after our trip to the Aquarium since we were going to be in the neighbourhood anyways.  We chose Zin Restaurant Lounge because I’ve heard of their $2 appys from 4-7pm.  They’re also a participant of the letsgofordinner.com “promotion”. It’s located on the corner of Jervis and [...]
