aaron: you can get good coffee at Artigiano and good pastries at La Petite France

Recent Montreal transplant (welcome!) Aaron Cope (yes, that Aaron, the one with the incomprehensible but cool squiggly banner graphic) has some funny observations on eating in Vancouver. Read the whole thing, but all I can say is that there is good coffee downtown (check out Caffee Artigiano and Take 5; two branches of the same Italian family both with free WiFi.

Seattle's Accidental Hedonist's Food Blog Awards

Thanks for the nomination Bill. And thanks for running the Food Blog Awards, Accidental Hedonist. Chocolate and Zucchini is a fine blog.

Here is some more Vancouver restaurant Tsunami Relief related news:

Arthur Hungry - A food blog with Vancouver material and great photos

Jon Husband pointed us to arthur hungry, which is a food blog with some Vancouver related material and lots of excellent food photos like the ones from this post about Ningtu! Excellent! The only thing I could suggest is adding a Vancouver category so I can track the Vancouver stuff.
