I realize I have been terrible at keeping up with my blog, so I have decided not just to post things I make with the recipes (it can be very time consuming!) but even just my food ramblings, to places I eat in the city and my favorite discoveries. So here I go....! From the day I moved out to Van from Calgary I started making sticky notes of all the restaurants and places I heard about and wanted to go eat, they started to accumulate on my wall and
everytime I made it to one of the places I checked it off my list.
Thats the great thing about Vancouver, the food scene here seems NEVER ENDING! Its like whoa whoa whoa ANOTHER
ramen noodle place just opened up?? What's this about our own local soup
nazi?
Ganache Patisserie makes
canneles? I have to check it out...I honestly
dont even know where to begin because not only do I take pictures of the food I make, but pretty much EVERYTHING I eat, yes I am that annoying friend. I have very patient friends because they know me by now and always wait for me to take pictures of the food before we eat. So I guess I may as well start with
todays lunch...the much talked about MARKET by Jean-Georges
Vongerichten opened up not too long ago and I have been wanting to try it. A friend and I have other
criteria on deciding if we like the place (besides the main course), good bread and clean bathrooms.
Good crusty chewy bread, check. (Extra bonus points for the coarse sea salt)
I had to...I really did, I mean look at this bathroom. Cleanest and best bathroom ever! Check.
Okay I realize what the H you went to Jean Georges' restaurant and ordered SOUP? I honestly
wasnt even that hungry but
thats never stopped me from eating somewhere, so we just ate in the cafe. I also have a thing for soup. Creamy tomato soup, I always have to try it because I think there is a fine line between tomato soup tasting like tomato sauce thrown together with chicken stock and a good hearty tomato soup made with the right ratio of other veg and pureed until rich and creamy. It was delicious
btw. (Extra bonus points for the soup being poured into my bowl at the table)
Goat Cheese and Beet Salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette-Pretty good but not as good as
the one I had at Chambar.

I love that you take pictures of your food. My job requires that we go eat out often, and our friends who tag along already know to pause and grin with their food! Our Nana says she's used to eating cold food by now! ;)
