VanEats

Zuzana Ponca successfully made a French Laundry reservation using a tip she found from us: reserve in person at the restaurant by getting there at about 9a.m. two months before your desired date. I've updated our French Laundry Reservation Saga Part 3 with her story.

As always, please leave a comment if you have any tips on making a reservation, or a report on their food.

Last night after dancing, we spotted lunch box soup on Hornby next to Jugo Juice at the corner of Hornby and Nelson.

What is it? Is it a restaurant? Please leave a comment and clue us in!

We love Guu.

Tea.ca is a bilingual site on tea (what else!) from the Tea Council of Canada. Now if only they had a blog and an RSS file so I could subscribe to updates. (via the Georgia Straight)

What's Cooking America linked to our Pasta with Rapini recipe on their Broccoli Raab/Rapini page.

Thanks!

BlueHereNow Vancouver, a blog about WiFi and wireless by Michael Tippet, founder of the marketing and design firm, Phrint, has linked to VanEats in a novel way (thanks!). They have put a box on the right side with the contents of VanEats RSS file.

UPDATE 15 August 2003: The link is gone! It must have been experimental only.

If you have time on Wednesdays, we highly recommend the excellent fruit, vegetables and other products at the Nat Bailey Stadium Farmers' Market.

Here are some photos from today's market.
