Dining out while enjoying Vancouver 2010
I have written a number of restaurant reviews on my site, not because I consider myself a foodie, but because I like to share my experiences with my readers. Also, as I mentioned before, I use my site as my very own personal journal. “This is what I did last week” kind of thing. During the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games, the one constant I have seen is line-ups at pavilions, houses and events.
I am not a fan of lineups. I have never been. I’m the kind of snob who will snub anything that makes me wait anything over 15 minutes (I have very, very gladly told many Yaletown and downtown Vancouver restaurants to go and find a new customer because I am not waiting in line for 30-45 minutes). The thing is, I have been reading online (on Twitter and various blogs) that Gastown and other parts of the city’s restaurants have not had as much business because patrons seem to be flocking just a certain area of the city.
I won’t tell you where to eat or what to do while you are out and about having fun and taking in all the wonderful things that are in town during Vancouver 2010. But what I *am* going to do is share with you my Dining Out category and a listing of those restaurants I have eaten at, because I think it’d help those restaurants that aren’t located in the downtown core and could benefit from tourist spillover.

It’s true, I’ve also been avoiding some of my regular/fave restaurants because of how crazy it is
Still.. great idea to get people outside of the core Raul!
