fish n chips
from: the cambie
price: $6somthing
rating: &&.5/&&&&&
listening to: Rush
comments: went to my first Cambie lunch. the fish n chips were not so good. the fish was ok, and the fries were good n greasy, but their colour was none to appealing. the dark bits that many people avoid when eating fries where just too blended in. oh well, the beer was good. click to see minion on her last day visiting me this time. and of course, hemi looking forlorn in the background.

and nicky had:

a chickeny burger
comments: click nicky's lunch to see a sweet ass malibu that I saw on my way to work. 327. 4-speed. very nice.

comments: for some reason it surprised me that you could get tacos from taco del mar. maybe they should change their name to burrito del mar. cuz I only think of burritos with them. if you click this pic you will see something awesome. my friend Jez form england was an extra in Shaun of the Dead. how awesome is that?! Yay Jez!

I was feeling nearly faded as my jeans


a garden felafel
from: Nuba
price: $5.25
rating: &&&&.5/&&&&&
listening to: Janis Joplin
comments: this felafel was great. it's even $1 cheaper if you don't choose the "garden" option. but I had to. it included avacado and something else. yum. it was good. after work I went rollerblading out at ubc. click the pic to see.

and edward had:

a garden felafel, also
comments: ed's felafel was the same as mine. click his felafel to see the people making the movie that yelled at us at ubc. "hey, you're in my shot!" more than one person yelled that at us. who's shot was it, anyway??! I decided it was mine. my shot. but really, I couldn't believe when I read this sign tucked away behind a tree. as if that's a legally binding contract! I should wear a t-shirt like this. then I can take a picture of anyone and sell it without legal percussoins. "if you can read this shirt, then you submit your image and likeness to the owner of the shirt and he can do whatever he wants with it" nice.

special crow feature:

today I had some crow run-ins. the 3rd pic is just a few I walked through and scattered. the 2nd one is a young crow I saw sitting on a fence. I got pretty close to take that picture and he didn't fly away. cuz he couln't fly yet. his parents got real mad at me for that. one of them is in the 1st picture. I got dive-bombed pretty awesomely. I didn't even notice the other young crow in that photo until I saw it in the photo. I guess their nest is on the edge of the bridge there. fun!

and I'm just about to lose my mind


a fatburger with cheese n bacon combo
from: fatburgerâ„¢
price: $11.52!!!
rating: &&&/&&&&&
listening to: CCR
comments: my first time to fatburger. and I was a little disappointed. maybe even more than a little. 11.52 is not what one should pay for an average burger combo. vera's blows this place away, in my mind. click to see the rare site of 3 awesome cars in a row. there's always 2-4 awesome cars in that area, but this time, they were all lined up nice for me.

and stephane had:

a burger, too
comments: perhaps stephane enjoyed the fatburger more than i? click this pic to see a funny video of my friend, Ron, at his old job. now he's an international artist in england. fun!

comments: good sesame chicken and adequate ginger beef. click the pic to see the awesomest video evar!

and ed had:

felafel
comments: ed said that the felafel didn't suck. that's a good rating. for lunch today, we went to the port of vancouver interpretive centre. it was not very exciting. in the linked pic was the best part, a game where you load containers onto ships. we found it more fun to load them into the water. the other best part was just walking around the cruise ships and seeing them getting loaded.

and cliff didn't have:

the rest of his bagel
comments: this bagel sat all day, it got real good looking. click the pic to see how we threw it in the water for the birds.

comments: if you click this pic you will see why my walk to work will be annoying for the next week. this may add 5 minutes to my travel time. bah. stupid dragon boats. I hope they get a real dragon for the festivities and it burns down all their tents. stupid path-blocking events.

price: under $7
rating: &&&&.4/&&&&&
listening to: Republica (just so I could use this title for this blog)
comments: great udon. now to the links... in this linked pic you will see me pulling off some mad matrix moves. and for the record... no, I didn't land it. but really, this is just a taste, once you click ed's lunch, your mind will be blown.

and ed had:

comments: derailer burger is delicious. know what else is delicious? tuna sashimi. buts that's neither here nor there. click the pic to see my jam room rocking itself out on a regular thursday night jam sesh.

and dave k. had:

a club sandwich?
comments: yes. so. we had a mini webct reunion at the railway club, not just with one dave, but two! and a temple, of course (yikes... check out the reviews tab on that page!!). anyway, it was a fun lunch and I imagine we'll do it again. any other ex-webcters downtown? other than john wu, that is! and in other news, I finally checked out the rooftop at work. it's not as exciting up there as I had dreamed. kinda the same view... but a wee bit higher. oh man, so many links I forgot to say, click on the pic to see a protest we saw out in front of our office. it sounded like it was for women's rights. not sure why they're following that floating man, or how he was floating.. magic?

sushi
it's thursday
comments: good sushi. click the pic to see some of canada's navy seals that I saw in false creek. wonder what they were doing?

and the cake was:

cheezcayk. the eyes were extra
comments: click the cake to see what the navy seals were probably doing there. when I walked home, this boat was a sittin there. I guess the seals hauled it up? dunno. but what I like about this picture is the skytrain in the background, see how as it passed behind the boat it turns from an old original skytrain to the new colours? crazy. not a very good pic of the boat, though. you wanna see more click here.

schnitzel "burger" with chorizo
from: harbour meats and deli
price: $8
rating: &&&&/&&&&&
listening to: modest mouse
comments: good sandwich from the deli. I saw the "chorizo" sausages sitting on the counter and thought I'd try one for $2. it was alright. I didn't really need the sausage though. if you click the pic you will see the HMCS Nanaimo coming into port. why is needed 6 little police boat escorts, I do not know. does anyone? they kept circling the harbour once he docked, too. is schwartzenegger on there or something?

and craig had:

salad form TDM (taco del mar not terry david mulligan. that guy sucks)
comments: click the pic to see the most 'america's funniest home video' type videos that I ever seen on youtube. well, maybe not, but I guarantee you will make some sort of noise out loud while watching. possibly laughter, more likely shock and pain type sounds. and if once just isn't enough, click this one for 5 times the pain and or giggles. yikes.

weekend bonus pics


comments: I worked this weekend. :( so I took some extras pictures. not of my food. because I primarily ate pizza pops. and if you really wanna see pizza pops, you can watch the movie and get that song in your head. it was in my head the whole time I ate them. maybe I should make an extended remix of that song... hmm... anyway, click the pic (of the view form my desk) to see what I saw at the dragon boat weekend. yes. that's a bbq on that bike!
