Revel Room in Gastown

23 July, 2008 (21:36) | Gastown, Restaurant, Vancouver

Revel Room opened their doors in Gastown recently – a welcome addition to the neighbourhood. What’s not to love about the 1:30AM kitchen last call, the 2:00AM distribution of cookies which signals to patrons that it’s time to leave. Much sweeter than the Vancouver club scene where, when it’s time to leave, you may find [...]

The Nokia E71 Unleashed

15 July, 2008 (23:00) | Business, Mobile Technology, Technical

The E71 is Nokia’s latest flagship E-Series business/smartphone. I’ve had mine for just over a week and I absolutely love it. It’s definitely worth dropping the cash for. In sequence, the last three phones I’ve used are the Nokia N95 8GB, the Nokia E61i and the Nokia E61. I’m happy to be back with an [...]

What’s to say about July’s issue of INFAMOUS? It just oozes sex… from cover to cover. Wicked events coverage, a look at the hot new Trattoria Italian Kitchen, cool industry notes, a red hot fashion shoot and more, it’s worth the pickup. This month, Social Shot is back to two pages and features lots of [...]

Vancouver the ‘No Fun City!’

8 July, 2008 (10:59) | Business, Rants, Vancouver

In the last few weeks, a couple things have been unfolding on City Hall’s steps – the type of activities that can spell disaster for Vancouver economically. British Columbia has always been largely plagued by a contingent of people who either don’t want to understand the big picture or are simply ignorant to the thought [...]

Look ma! No meat!

1 July, 2008 (01:39) | Food, Vancouver

Around the time I got married, I also decided that it was time to appease both sides of the family, get some brownie points and take in some Hindu/family traditions. One of those traditions is observing Tuesdays as a day of abstention. In this case, my family doesn’t eat meat on Tuesdays. Being the brown [...]
