  1. I'm not sure if this should be in the Diva thread, but I noticed today on Canada.com that they were doing a feature of the manager of Diva. The overall tone was what it is like to be the manager of a "top Vancouver restaurant". It smacked of PR to offset the recent bad press in the Globe. It made me wonder just how much a bad review can affect a restaurant, and marvel at how quickly the PR machine can be ignited.
  2. Thank you for your response, Howard. I find myself now really curious about what is going on in London. I've just spied the Bluebird on the shortlist for the London Restaurant 2005 Awards for Best British Restaurant. It is up there with St. John, what I consider to be London's Best British Restaurant. Can someone please let me know what has happened at the Bluebird to cause such distinction. Obviously there have been some big changes, or something terrible has happened to all of the great restaurants in London (appart from St. John's of course). Pretzels
  3. Cafe S'il Vous Plait on Robson and Richards (?) has a corner door and it has been there for yonks (more than 10 years at least.
  4. Hello, I'm new to egullet and happy to be here. I'm sorry I missed out on Adesso the other night, I'm just around the corner too. Oh well, next time! Here are my last 3 meals out: Tonight: Dan - funky Japanese place on Broadway near Lumiere. Very nice, really liked the bbq mackeral and the squid, cod roe seaweed-wrapped tempura number Last night: dinner at my friend Peggy's - a great cook - home made chicken pot pie, fries and home made Paris Brest for dessert. A nice bit of nostalgic comfort food. Monday night: Indian Oven on West 4th. Awesome butter chicken. Vij's or Maurya this place isn't, but it's yummy curries just the same.
