Angela Murrills' review of Cassis Bistro is in her usual, thorough fashion much more detailed than anything you'd find here. Still waiting for Tim Pawsey's review to show up on the web.

I couldn't agree more with Tim Pawsey's Cassis Bistro review (which I would link to if it was up on the web, I'll post a follow up later when it goes up on the web!).

The room is cozy, the staff are friendly and the food is inexpensive and tasty.

I'm sure Taste of the City will be as much fun as last year. See you there!

Kirsten asked if we know anything about the World Gourmet Festival which is supposedly taking place at the Four Seasons. We don't know anything about this but if you do, please leave a comment!

Cassis Bistro has great crepes I discovered yesterday. I'll have a first visit report later, but just wanted to let everybody know that their banana nutella crepe (above) is excellent, and they have a beer tasting tonight at 8p.m.

Definitely worth a visit!

If anybody has any more info on the soon to open KeyWest Kissaten Restaurant that replaces the recently closed Casa Dolce in Kerrisdale, please leave a comment.

Coffee Geek is an excellent site for those mad about coffee and I really enjoyed the recent Espresso Glossary (never knew espresso could be so detailed and geeky!).
