"I had breakfast at this gigantic breakfast-and-lunch-only store and chose the "buckwheat blessing" - crepe wrapped around sausage and with a gigantic helping of fresh fruit."

"Extremely popular venue with large portions of good food. I ordered the huevos rancheros, which had no heat whatsoever. Augmenting with their house-made salsa (available on request) didn't fix it."

"I didn't buy groceries here, though they have a wide array. I did buy a sandwich, of which they have a large array. I picked a Napoli on focaccia and was pleased by both the quality and value."

"Food here is as good as at the Kitsilano location, which is to say very good. Be prepared to wait."

"They sell as good a baguette as I've ever had. Coffee is so-so, and the pain au raisin was sort of soggy. I will forgive all for that baguette."

"All the dim sum classics are on offer here, and prices and service are good. Big space."
