  • If you can't get into any of those places you should also look at my recommendations. I don't have any stake in any of these places other than the fact that I actually eat at most of them. I didn't like Coast that much at its old location but everyone else seems to like the new spot.

  • Gadling recently compiled a list of it's top 10 moments from Anthony Bourdain's No Reservactions. I really like this show even though it has become a bit more travel than food. They killed 5 whole minutes in the Vancouver episode with him shooting some cheesy special effects stunt shot on the set of some unknown movie. At least they went to Tojo's.

  • As my home town prepares to welcome the world for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games, travellers may be looking to pick up some tickets before they arrive. If you are Canadian and looking for official tickets you are probably too late as most of the event tickets in Vancouver have been spoken for in 3 or 4 previous rounds of lottery and first come first serve sales. A quick check of the official ticket site shows that there are a few tickets left for some preliminary curling and preliminary hockey events but not much else. There are some Whistler event tickets left but they've restricted those to Whistler residents only to minimize highway congestion. International visitors have been directed to check with their local National Olympic Committees or official ticket agencies. A listing is provided at the Vancouver 2010 ticket site. A quick peek at a sample of those sites shows that most of these international ticket sellers are also sold out.
