Title: A question for the Vancouverites...
Description: Could I visit? :P


Beaver-Country-Canada - July 6, 2005 12:49 AM (GMT)
Hey guys! At the end of this month, I am heading down to Comox to see my sweetie in his Cadet camp in Comox. I leave the 27th, and I have to go through Vancouver, quite obviously. Now, I have no idea how to get around the Vanc, but I wanted to ask the Vancouverites if they wanted to meet up, since I probably won't go back to Vanc for quite some time -- like about 6+ years -- so this could be my only chance. I'd love to meet Ess, and I think Daemon lives in the Vanc -- who else is there? And is this a good suggestion, or what?! :lol:

Give me a reply, guys!

Woo-hoo!

I'm in!! :D

That would be too cool, BCC! :)

I don't think Daemon's back from T.O. by then, but I think Mav will be back from wherever he is!

Beaver-Country-Canada - July 6, 2005 06:53 PM (GMT)
Sweet! Mav and you are two I've always wanted to meet :P

Oh, dear! Daemon's going to get all teary, now! :P

:lol:

:cry:

No no... It's just the dust in this room...

:cry:

for some reason I had assumed that Daemon was a fellow Toronto resident. Guess I can stop walking in the shadows- whew!

Have fun Lelana, fantastic place to visit, I love it there!

Daemon is a resident of Toronto currently, but will be a Vancouver resident (again) as of the 19th of August.

When you get back here and all settled, etc., Daemon, I owe you a lunch! :D

You pick the place - just don't make it too pricey and make it in the city - of Vancouver, that is! :P

Jack_Tarr - July 6, 2005 11:12 PM (GMT)
And there will be pictures taken! Right Ess??????? :yes:

Ess - July 6, 2005 11:13 PM (GMT)
Oui! But of course! :D

Absolutely! Though I do insist on it being Dutch treat.

You know the Naam at all?

Nope.

This the one?

Sounds like a cool place and it's only about 30 blocks away.

We'll have to take Checkers there when she comes out! :)

*edit*

BCC, too, if she wants vegetarian.

Yeah! That's the one. I'm not personally vegatarian, but I do enjoy the food there and it's a nice relaxing place to have a meal. They don't take reservations and get pretty busy so don't be in a rush if you go there at a tradition meal time.

I was going to suggest a more meaty repast, Memphis Blues, but I thought better of it...

We just had take-out from there for the first time last week.

It was great and the desserts were wonderful!!

Your pick, dude! :)

You're going to a vegetarian restaurant without me? :(

You better take me there, when I come to Vancouver!



Hey Daemon, if you ever want to go out for a veggie meal here, I'd love to....but it'd have to be downtown, because I don't know of anything good here in Markham....

Beaver-Country-Canada - July 7, 2005 10:16 PM (GMT)
:lol: :lol:

Mav, you should come back earlier! I'll already be in Comox by Saturday! Ess, I wouldn't mind going out to veg food -- I may not be it, but really, I only eat chicken anyway. I'm closer to vegetarian than meatatarian! :P

Ess - July 7, 2005 10:19 PM (GMT)
We'll have to try that veg. restaurant that Daemon mentioned then, BCC! :)

And when Checkers gets here, we'll of course go there! :D

For sure! What are the good places downtown?

I love Fresh by Juice for Life...doesn't have a very big menu, but everything is so good. They make what I have labelled the best sandwich ever ^_^

I like Le Commensal too. It's a buffet....It's all health food that's super low fat, so some things don't taste so great :P . They have good desserts though. (Maple syrup pie! :D )

I went to Vegetarian Haven a few weeks ago. It's pretty good too...


Apparently, Fressen is supposed to be the best veggie restaurant in T.O. I've never been there, but I heard it's over-rated.

It does! :D

It's a triple decker sandwich with avocado, tomato, lettuce, red onions, alfalfa sprouts, herb tofu mayo, and your choice of cheese :D . And their bread is really good.

(Their menu (pdf). The sandwich I'm referring to is the one called "reality bites").

Oh, it is. That place is really close to my school, so we'd often go there for pie between classes :D
