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!).

[ROLAND's NOTE: Thanks, Ken - Sorry for posting this so late.  I would post a link to the original article but the Vancouver Sun doesn't believe in being a paper of record on the web.  As a result, the original article is no longer freely accessible (as of this writing http://66.102.7.104/search?q=cache:NlkJAKfgd1YJ:www.canada.com/vancouver...

Tyler Cowan - Vancouver is one of the best places for cutting edge cuisine

Submitted by Roland on Sun, 08/22/2004 - 22:54

According to Tyler, the reason Vancouver is cutting edge is that we have competition, experimentation and pride and I can't disagree with that. We certainly all three of these things in the Japanese, Chinese, and South Asian community (amongst others) here in Vancouver!

Cordelle is looking for hot wings

Submitted by Roland on Tue, 08/17/2004 - 23:39

If anybody knows where to get hot hot wings in Vancouver, please leave a comment. Cordelle has just moved here and is looking for some suicide wings!

I personally don't know where there are hot wings here. I don't think it has anything to do with Vancouver per se, it's just that I don't play softball and therefore don't go out for wings afterwards like I used to do in Ottawa (and because of that I knew lots of good places for wings back in the day!).

Submitted by Roland on Sat, 08/14/2004 - 17:06

[UPDATE from ROLAND: Whoops, this event was yesterday, August 13th NOT today August 14 as I originally posted.  Mea culpa! I was confused because I didn't receive the email until today.  Thanks to Kurtis from Aurora for pointing this out.  It would be great if this tribute could last the whole weekend.]
