Description:
RICHMOND. Located on the Fraser River, this pub features a great outdoor deck and a comfy interior patterned after a coastal fishing cottage. Its most prominent feature, however, is its proximity to an air terminal where seaplanes land on the water. Great beer is a standard, and regional microbrews are conveniently on tap. Cocktails, bottled beers, hard cider and a few wines can also be had. Plus, the pub menu presents burgers, pastas, pizzas, spicy wings and fish and chips. Reservations accepted for large groups only. |

KITSILANO. When writer Ernestine Ulmer said, "Life is uncertain, eat dessert first," she surely would have high-tailed it to Sweet Obession to indulge. Self-educated pastry chef Lorne Tyczenski offers a mouthwatering array of cakes, tarts and flans that will satisy even the most sophisticated of dessert connoisseurs. The 16-seat cafe is next door to its full service partner Trafalgar's Bistro and provides their tasty treats as well. Hint: the selections at Sweet Obsession are slightly lower priced than at the Bistro but are the same. |

Description:
Chef-owner Montri Rattanaraj extends a warm welcome to diners at this long-time local favorite. Dedicated to traditional flavors, he has hard-to-find ingredients flown in from Bangkok so as not to compromise the authenticity of the dishes. The seven-page menu assures there is something for every kind of eater, and spices can be adjusted according to individual preference. Start with Tod Mun, fish cakes prepared with curry paste and topped with green beans, move to chicken "swimming angels" in peanut sauce, or local salmon in thick red curry and coconut sauce. Wash it down with a beer or a crisp pinot noir. |

Description:
KITSILANO. As cozy and intimate as you'd expect a jazz venue to be, this much-appreciated club delivers some of the city's best live performances. Although the definition of what jazz is can be broad here, the music is undeniably top-notch. The place is especially busy on weekends, so you'll need to come early to get a seat in the 70-person room. A terrific cocktail menu includes a wide array of martinis, and food choices include a menu of light fare and sinful desserts. A favorite of aficionados and novices alike. |
