    Excellent eh1eh; You don't get a nice appetizer in many restaurants unless you order it from the menu. We have several Greek restaurants in Nanaimo and it's almost time for a roast lamb dinner with rice and potatoes....

    My wife and I just had lunch at the Fox and Hounds pub. The beer was good, the fish and chips was only fair.. I had two pieces of fish and they were identical in size and shape which led me to think that they came from M & Ms or some other commercial establishment that produces perfectly...

    Welcome to Juan's Kitchen!

    I just noticed that the pub where we are going for lunch has "Sticky Toffee Pudding" on the menu. I've never made this but I have eaten it a few times. With a dollup of whipped cream it is almost addicting. Here is a recipe to give you an idea...

    Here is the pub we are visiting today for lunch: http://www.foxandhoundsnanaimo.com/menu.html We've never been there but we are told they do great fish and chips. The rest of the menu is pure English pub fare. There are photos in the link. The red phone box is a nice touch. Maybe it's a...

    Talloola You take the Cedar turn off and eventually you will see signs for the Crow and Gate Pub. BTW, the Crow and Gate was the first official "pub" when the rules changed to allow pubs in B.C..

    We live not too far away from the Longwood. It is not a bad place and the food is pretty good. I just feel it just doesn't have the character to be a good pub. Have you been to the Crow and Gate? out in Cedar? I think it is the best pub in B.C.....Even if they don't serve fish and...

    No, they are in there for good. It would probably take open heart surgery to remove them. They are a little wire mesh cylinder that can be expanded inside a blood vessel where there is a near blockage.

    Yes, ditto for me. I went through the same procedure two years ago. This last time I didn't have surgery. They put in three stents(little things that enlarge the heart arteries) Almost like by-pass. surgery.

    PS Zan There used to be a place sort of like Barb's in Nanaimo.....Right down in the marina, but it changed hands and now the fish is mostly batter.

    I've seen Barb's place Zan but I've never eaten there. Fish and chips is obviously one of my favourite meals. Comes from having had real English fish and chips in London. You haven't lived until you've had good fish and chips served in a newspaper.....Once in a while you would get something...
