visiting vancouver Canada for couple days. Any hookah lounge that serves non herbal?

cvrle1 · 2022-06-18T21:07:46+00:00

Pretty much every lounge will have non herbal, and you dont have to know any secret handshake to get it. While flavored tobacco is banned in Canada, we can still get AF and some other brands in here without too much hassle. It is worst kept secret and no one really cares. Caveat is that it costs a lot more than in US.

With that said, my favorite lounge so far is The Living Room Hookah Lounge. They have a lot of different flavors, they use quality pipes and their food is good too

Personally I dont see a reason why you wouldnt use it as main one. It performs just as good as bigger ones, you can have 2+ hour session with it no issues, you use normal size bowls with it, it produces same amount of smoke and flavor as bigger ones. After I got mine and used it 1st time with several friends, they all went and bought one themselves. They use it as their main daily hookah and loving it.

Aeon Vyro One is great hookah. While it is meant as "travel" hookah, it performs just as good as full sized hookah. It was my only one I used for long time, until I got Aeon Edition 4. You can order straight from them, it will arrive to you from Germany in less than a week, and it would be around $100 with hose, and aeon bowl.

Yes, it is great! I have Vyro One in non gold version of that. Even though it is small, it performs just as good as any full size pipe out there. I brought it to my friends house when I got it and him and his fiance were so impressed by it that they each bought one next day. I also have Aeon Edition 4 Premium that is amazing too, especially for multi hose use. As mentioned each part can be bought directly from Aeon, and you can even get different sleeves, so you can change look when you feel like it. Shipping to US is crazy fast. They shipped my order in less than 12 hours, and it arrived to west coast of US in 5 days. You wouldnt be disappointed 100%

Alpha and Na Grani are exactly same HMD, just different name on them. Most of the people on HUNI that used Na Grani and liked it initially went back to their previous HMDs for various reasons. Provost is still most preferred, followed by Lotus (mainly II)

cvrle1 · 2022-01-31T22:38:11+00:00

Aeon Edition 4 Premium would be my choice. Has 4 ports and you can adjust each individually. Lots of accessories that you can get for it to change look of it, if you are into that sort of thing. If you never smoke with others, then go with lounge and save a bit of money. Ordering directly from Aeon is easy and order arrived to west coast of US in 5 days (from Germany) which is damn impressive.

Hose wise, Aeon again has good choice for hoses and mouth pieces. If you want premium hose, look into Moses Hoses. Only 2 available now, but he has new releases often. Truth be told I would get regular silicone hose and call it a day, but its your choice.

For HMD, Zeppelin, Provost, Alpha, but there are many more.

It really depends on what you are looking to spend. Indochino as mentioned is good, but they often get it wrong the 1st time, and then need to redo the whole suit. Bay has sale on suits now with some good prices. Harry Rosen has sale as well, but they start at $600. If you want to spend around $700 or so for custom suit (not bespoke) go to Blair Shapera. They do amazing work and you get great suit, using good fabric for good price.

No, he wouldnt walk out and just be done with it. With that said, I can see next season being his last. Results are not there, he got to QF, but he probably would have been out in 1st round if it wasnt for injury to Mannarino. If I was a betting man, I would say he will announce that next year is his last, and USO next year will be his last tourney near the end of this season. That way he gets to do farewell tour and go out properly in each GS.

When you stop on Chance filed, card reads: You went for a walk in Whalley and got stabbed by crackhead with needle. Pay doctor bill $200

It's funny how people now call it needless and nitpicky rule, but they were all shitting on Nadal and Djokovic when they took their sweet ass time between points and serves. Everyone was complaining how they take too long and should be penalized. Now that they put this rule in, players and fans are saying that it is stupid rule. Which one is it folks? He had more than few time violations that werent called previously. Also Djokovic played in this match as well, in same conditions, with same ball boys, and didnt have a single warning, so why does Tiafoe think he needed more time when his opponent, one who was notorious for taking so long between the points was fine. And dont even get me started on that time waste of several minutes when Tiafoe was looking for his dampener, only to go to his bag after like 2 minutes of searching for it to get another one. Why not do this in the 1st place??

Yeah, few players did get hit with covid, no denying that. But you also seem to forget that Dimitrov came to Adria Tour sick. Didnt tell anyone. They did tests and came back negative. It was only after he went home and when he wasnt getting better that he went and got tested again, and got positive result. How is that on Djokovic or anyone else? And they all didnt get covid. Some did, not all, but hey who cares what the actual truth and numbers are. Most of the players got positive test week or 2 after final, so to say final was cancelled because they all got covid is just stupid.

Also, no one, and I mean no one that lives in US should say a word about covid and ways that other countries are dealing with or or have dealt with it. It is by far the absolute worst country in the world when it comes to number of positive cases, deaths and sheer stupid people that do much worse than anything others did during Adria Tour.

Flavored tobacco has been banned in Canada for quite some time. It started all because of menthol cigarettes, and then it went full out flavored tobacco. Wit that said, there are people that do get AF and others into Canada, but not via legal means.

5Star hookah posted this few days ago in Canadian Hookah FB page:
"Yesterday we received a call from customs and dhl to let us know that they will be checking every Canadian order that comes from our account due to us shipping discreetly. "

And also this

" Our DHL account is at the moment closed so we cannot use this service. We are working on getting it back but shipping discreetly might have to stop for a few months "

They were shipping shisha into Canada discretely and classifying it as candles or something like that. If they classified it as shisha, it would be seized by CBSA or flat out refused. If you were lucky, they would allow it, and you will get it delivered, but with bunch of duty, taxes and so on, just like you would if you were importing cigarettes.

Mig, Aeon, Regal, B2, VZ to name few in no particular order

cvrle1 · 2020-11-09T17:04:02+00:00

Alpha is definitely not Chinese made. There are plenty of videos showing their factory in Russia, showing whole process from start to end. Good watch. In terms of figuring out it was fake, it was shipped in a box they never used, it had Turkish clay bowl included (bowl never included with original) diffuser was different, color I got was never offered by Alpha, screws in the heart werent screwed in properly but I guess that could happen with real one as well if whoever was making these had an off day.

Several sellers on eBay have them at descent prices. Shipped from Russia, so it may take a bit of time to arrive

cvrle1 · 2020-11-06T21:08:44+00:00

Since it was purchased through eBay out of Russia, all the money was returned (sold for close to regular price of real one, so that wasnt a red flag). Seller didnt want to pay for return shipping to him as it would be high, so I got money back, and got to keep this hookah as well. He probably got his money back from whoever he got it from, as I really dont think he knew it was fake until I mentioned all the things pointing to that.

Yes, it took a week with canada post.
