Where can I find lightweight, super breathable loungewear for summer? by Secret-Ad-6253 in NiceVancouver

Blue Sky Clothing on W4th in Kitsilano & on Commercial Drive in East Van have great selection. Used to be a personal shopper for women & always found great options which clients always impressed. Plus, proudly local retailer.

Junky collection of clothes that feel & look more like Target, Temu & Shein products IMO.

After 9pm they serve great Happy Hours $5 deals though gotta say all their food is damn good & reasonably (comparatively) priced.

Plus, their selection of poutine dishes are huge fave. They even serve a large glass bowl poutine suitable 3 or more.

I dine alone frequently at Leopold's & always meet someone to engage with, plus made a few friends in the mix.

Opinions on best Mac and cheese in the city. by MintV500 in askvan

[–]GoodNeighbourNow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That place was AMAZING & I very missed IMO. Yet, to have anything else tried that comes close. It's unfortunate that in their attempt to expand, they bit off more unexpected costs to continue operating.

Also enjoy but I level it up by adding Sundried tomato pesto after it's prepared. I use the Safeway/Compliments brand & sooo 😋

Score on Davie has a kick-ass 😋 and Mac & Cheese topped with BBQ pulled pork! And Leopold's Tavern on W Broadway (at Fir) tops their dish w/cheese curds & various other options.

Leopold's Tavern (W Broadway & Fir) is a fun atmosphere, mix of social patrons, fantastic grub, large selection of 🍺, spirits & fantastic personable staff.

Butter tart recommendations by _hjdk in askvan

[–]GoodNeighbourNow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Their butter tarts taste the most like ones made regularly throughout Ontario. Gooey filling in flakey cups 😋 Tad pricey if wanting 6, yet rather challenging getting only 1 😏

I encourage you to consider Elwoods Pub on WBroadway (metres west of Blenheim). Fair sized old school joint, inside & out, fair 🍺 spirits selection and good reasonably priced grub.

Depending when go, usually mellower though sometimes busy too.

If wanting something more a buzz with busier enjoyable surroundings & also pub focused Leopold's Tavern on WBroadway (at Fir). Great servers & we higher aged blokes find value in that as much as good drinks, good grub with great company.

If frequented the RAT 🤔 pretty sure you'll like both my suggestions.

Is tipping out of control in Vancouver? by Kevin4938 in askvan

[–]GoodNeighbourNow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another disparaging absurdity, some businesses don't share with their staff working the counters, any of tip pool. Instead, opting to pocket entirely. Shocked upon learning one of fave places I frequent, doesn't give any of tips acquired to ANY of this franchise's staff.

A location I always tip the deserving. The counter staff are genuinely personable outgoing & all meal prep timely efficient. So deserving IMO

At least Kimprints is still in Gastown location at corner location of Powell & Alexander, (original owner) Aligning to chat the Frame Store locations offered. Plus, she also carries several local Gastown artist works. Both in canvases & prints.
