Marquis Wine Cellars
1034 Davie Street
Twitter: @MarquisWineCell
Web: http://www.marquis-wines.com/
Cuisine: Wine store
For the wine collector or wine aficionado you can visit the cellar which offers high end bottles of wine from all over the world, perfect for that special occasion whatever that may be. The stores website is a valuable resource as well such as the information on Food and Wine pairing, personally I love the section showcasing the Best of BC that features wines from all over British Columbia.
Just Juice
1107 Davie Street
Web: http://www.just-juice.com/
Twitter: @justjuicebar
Cuisine: Juice and smoothies
At Just Juice, our mission is simple: to make the world’s most nutritious cold-pressed juice cocktails and whole food smoothies, and have fun while doing it.
We opened Just Juice because we want to make being healthy easy and enjoyable. We don’t believe in adding bad stuff like purée, concentrates, sugar, artificial colours, or artificial flavours to our products. We simply rely on fresh, organic, pure fruit and vegetable nectar —just the way good ol’ Mother Nature intended.
De Dutch Pannekoek House
1725 Robson Street
Twitter: @dedutch
Cuisine: Dutch
Since 1975 De Dutch has been part of the Vancouver landscape. Our Robson location is a corporate operated restaurant that specializes in breakfast and lunch. Most famous for the pannekoeken, an authentic Dutch style pancake which is much larger and thinner than the North American version, but slightly thicker than a crepe. The pannekoeken can be served in 50 different sweet or savoury options.
Papparoti
1505 Robson Street
Web: www.papparoti.ca
Twitter: @PappaRotiCanada
Cuisine: Café
PappaRoti – the buttery, coffee-caramel coated “father of all buns” that first took Malaysia by storm in
2003 and has since opened over 400 café locations worldwide – has now arrived in Canada.
The first Canadian PappaRoti Café is in the middle of Vancouver’s most popular shopping district on
Robson St. We believe that Vancouver is the perfect city to launch this unique brand concept and
franchise – it has a terrific coffee culture, and the PappaRoti bun, with its crispy coffee caramel coating, is
an ideal accompaniment.
Though the proprietary recipe comes from Asia, we at PappaRoti have been very adamant about adding a
North American twist to the concept to please consumer demand by trying to source many of our other
ingredients and product offerings from local suppliers and markets. We pride ourselves on the fact that
our perfectly proportioned, healthy buns attract people of all nationalities and age groups. Light enough to
pass off as a snack rather than a meal, these delicious coffee-caramel buns are soft and fluffy, with a
crispy top layering, served alone or in combination with various hot and cold beverages.
Morocco West
795 Jervis Street
Web: https://moroccowest.com/menus/
Twitter: @MoroccoWest
Cuisine: Moroccan
With warm colours, modern décor and adventurous food, Morocco West is an exotic and sophisticated destination that maintains a cozy and inviting atmosphere. Executive Chef Nourdine Majdoubi boldly combines North African and West Coast cuisine with a flair that both delights the eye and engages the palate. Winner of three Vancouver Foodster awards since opening in May 2014, MW is unmatched as Vancouver’s first and only Moroccan-Fusion restaurant. With unique combinations of fresh local ingredients and Middle-Eastern spices, the menu is no stranger to the perfect marriage of robust flavour with stylish elegance.
