Why I chose Original Joe’s Cajun Chicken Cheddar Burger?! This is how ordering goes at times! I was originally going to get a salad from Original Joe’s, but I loved how this burger had grilled cajun chicken, and you always get two sides with the burgers at this trendy restaurant. My sides: I chose the veggie…

I loved my breakfast at “The Snug” on Bowen Island, and thought to share it with you all. Why? Well, a lot of times you’ll get a Benedict and it’ll be covered with fake hollandaise sauce, and it just isn’t that healthy of a choice, but at this cafe, they make everything from scratch, let…

Inside a toasted Chiabatta Bun it had an Atlantic Salmon Lemon Pepper Fillet, lettuce, tomato, pickled red onion, and tzaziki sauce. It also came with a side and I chose…

Let’s see! I’m in love with the Tuna Tataki Salad at Coto’s! The Tuna is lightly seared with some spices added to it, and Avocado slices are placed decoratively on top of the salad. The salad dressing is made with Ponzu sauce which is delightful on your tastebuds, and doesn’t weigh the salad down, as the…

What a surprise! Waiting for a ferry in Powell River that would take us back to Texada Island, my two friends and I decided to stop in for lunch at the Thaidal Zone Restaurant.

Market’s Tuna Salad was my perfect idea of a healthy meal! The salad consisted of BC Albacore tuna, poplar bluff potatoes, tomato, and a tarragon vinaigrette. The unique addition of two boiled quail eggs was a surprising and lovely touch! I eat quail eggs all the time at home – so to see them on…

It’s made of free run organic chicken breast, tomato, fennel, basil, provolone and cranberry bread. It’s pressed on a panini grill right before service so it was…
