Hello and welcome!
I love food! I especially enjoy dining out. Dining out gives me the opportunity to reconnect with friends in-person, swap stories for belly laughs, and enjoy the many diverse restaurants in Vancouver.
I have tried various restaurants in Vancouver over the years and recently a good friend of mine suggested I start a food blog. I think it's because I enjoy talking about my culinary adventures as much as I love to eat, but I often forget important details such as location of restaurant, and price of my final bill. I believe it's my so-called "mommy" brain that prevents me from recalling important details. I also read many wonderful Vancouver food blogs and they have encouraged me to step out of my neighborhood to try out new places. Therefore, I started my blog to reflect on my culinary escapades so I can revisit restaurants and try new ones to compare.
My blog is about food, mainly Vancouver restaurants. However, my family and I love to travel and I may find opportunities to comment on restaurants, markets and vendors elsewhere.
About me: I am a mama of 2 youngsters, a wife, friend, loves to travel, putter in the garden, occasional baker, seasonal/mood dependant flyfisher woman, comfy-clothes wannabe boho and food/chocolate lover.
About my food/resturant reviews/Disclaimer: By all means, I do not claim to be a food critic. My opinions are solely based on my own experiences and I will at times include my dining companion's opinions. I will review the food (taste, presentation), price, service and ambience of the restaurant again based on my experience during my visit. I will be mindful when I write reviews as we all differ in opinions. I started my blog to reflect on my food experiences, and I hope to do this in a respectful manner.
Our experiences will differ and I'm sure we will agree on many things. Therefore, I think it's important to note that I will delete any comments that are rude, crude, use inappropriate language, and contain name-calling. My blog is not a "rant" page. I will also delete spam or promotions.
Leave me a message when you can. I would love to hear about your experiences. Also, if any of my comments/posts are incorrect, please email me directly: vansahmom@hotmail.com. Thanks for stopping by!
Happy New Year!
