  • What I Ate in Vancouver – Round 3

    These What I Ate posts are very quickly becoming my favorite posts to write on ze blog. After all, they revolve around travelling and eating. What’s not to love? And so today, I have my third instalment of what I ate on my last trip to Vancouver. I know, I know, I travel to Vancouver far too often. In fact, I travel to Vancouver so often, I didn’t even bother to photograph what I ate when I went there a couple weekends ago because I thought I might be boring you with all of the YVR eats. But then again, could anyone ever really get bored of seeing what there is to eat in Vancouver? Absolutely not. So, enjoy and make sure to have a snack nearby while reading this post in case you get hungry. Important things. And as always, let me know if there are any restaurants I should check out next time I’m in Van!
