"Dining about" everywhere

(I just lost the first version of this post when Firefox crashed...needless to say, I'm sad.)

So it's Dine About Town this month in SF. This week, I'll be checking out Jack Falstaff and Seasons @ Four Seasons (thanks, Sandra!), but hopefully I'll get to a couple more before the month is over. But did you know that it's also Dine About Town -- aka Dining Out -- in Vancouver? That's right, for your choice of $15/25/35 (CANADIAN dollars...that's like 2 cents), you can check out the oldies-but-goodies such as Lumiere (well, you almost could have--they're sold out) and Amarcord, or new favourites like Wild Rice, Blue Water or Glowbal.

Just got back from brunch with Psyche at the awesome Hog Island Oyster Co. at the Ferry Building--which by the way, is such a foodie haven/trap. I ended up picking up my somewhat-weekly cake from Miette (it's Chocolate Cream Layer cake this week), Stonehouse olive oil, and splurged on some incredibly-yummy (and weird...weird like "Spring Jasmine Tea") chocolates from Recchiuti. I told you I couldn't go on a diet!

Yeah yeah, I know this was another post about food, but you gotta admit that I got your tastebuds excited ;-)
