Vancouver Is Awesome, and we are dedicated to everything that makes it that way.

If you want to read ugly, bad news about this beautiful city of ours, you’re going to have to look to traditional media and other blogs; V.I.A. promotes everything that makes our city awesome, from old to new and everything inbetween. We’re like the human interest piece on the news… only different.

TO DIE FOR FOOD OF THE WEEK – VOLUME 39

Every week I compile a collection of the most mouthwatering food photos that I shot in & around Vancouver. The hashtag #todiefor denotes an item truly knee weakening in flavour. Questions? Tweet me @erinireland

Bourbon Pecan Pumpkin Pie by The Pie Hole - ‘homemade’ deep dish pie made in small batches, using pumpkins straight from the patch. What’s so great about this new little company is that they specialize in savoury pies – a rarity here in Vancouver. Check their menu here.

Namahata Rolls by CHAU VEGGIEXPRESS - quinoa, yams and a crunchy wheat center wrapped up in soy paper – these are irresistible (as were the other four dishes tried). Highly recommend this cozy, unassuming little vegetarian eatery on Victoria Drive.

Roasted Portobello Mushroom Breakfast Sandwich by Yolk’s Breakfast - get here! Chef Steve serves up intense-flavored, unique breakfasts from Wednesday to Sunday outside the skytrain station on Dunsmuir at Beatty. The Truffle Lemon Hashbrown skewers are over-the-top fantastic and made with local organic potatoes.

Banana Bread French Toast by by Yolk’s Breakfast - what a thrill it was to wake-up to a tweet about this over the weekend. Panko-breaded, pan fried and served with a dollop of lemon honey  mascarpone – it was crunchy, moist and fully satisfying.

Carrot Cake Muffins by Quinoa Revolution Cookbook - my new favorite healthy pancake recipe. They’re big, fluffy and full of ‘stuff’.
