Vancouver-Bound!
February 22, 2007
This weekend, I'm making my first trip to Vancouver (and my first trip to Canada in over 3 years) to speak at the Northern Voice 2007 blogging conference. I'm really excited to get to meet a lot of new people, as well as finally getting to meet a number of long-time bloggers in person.
If you'll be in Vancouver, drop me a line (email is anil@dashes.com and my mobile phone is 646-541-5843) and I hope we can meet up. I'm not sure exactly how much free time I'll have, but I'm hoping to try at least one good local restaurant, as well, since I'll be staying downtown.
Oh, and I'm looking for restaurant suggestions as well -- if you're local, hook me up.

You want to talk to Roland Tanglao about good Vancouver restaurants. He runs VanEats.com. I’d help, but I’m pretty anhedonic.

Guu and Vij’s are musts. Tojo’s is good but over-rated sushi.
Cecily
Dang, I’m going to miss my chance to finally meet you. Oh well, I’ll have to fanwank at some other opportunity.
As for restaurants, I’m a big fan of The Flying Tiger, Sanafir, and Guu (the one on Robson and Thurlow).

Welcome. Great that you could make. i liked the tone of your talk, especially what you said about organizations showing respect by offering info rather than ramming it down peoples throats.

I agree with Kevin - Vij’s is first-class - http://www.vijs.ca/ - they don’t take reservations, but do serve free bites while you wait - and the wait is worth it. C - http://www.crestaurant.com or Blue Water http://www.bluewatercafe.net/ have the best seafood in town - Blue Water has a top sushi bar as well. Enjoy!
