What to do in and around Vancouver right now!
Despite the current circumstances, we Vancouverites are innovative folks, and we are safely continuing our lives as best we can. This weekend there’s actually a few openings, lots of great brunch to be had and many ways to get out, or stay home, and entertain yourself.
Garden of Granite Winery
What’s this? A new urban winery? Good Wine Gal alerted us to Garden of Granite located at 228 East Esplanade North which has a soft opening October 24 from 1 to 4 pm. “Opening a new business in times of Covid 19 takes courage and passion! Stop by, taste wine and buy your favorite…maybe take a charcuterie plate home!” www.gardenofgranite.com

Marakatsu and Happy Hour at Gyoza Bar
I finally made it to the Gyoza Bar for the Marukatsu menu and it was worth the wait. Went for the prawn and pork, and think I’ll be needing to head back in for the chicken stuffed with cheese and more. Perfectly crunchy, tender pork and sweet prawns with all you can eat rice and miso soup.
Speaking of Gyoza Bar, they’ve just launched their Happy Hour from 3-6 pm daily. Stop in for $4 beer, $5 wine and appies starting at $3.50. Tacos, gyoza and small plates. Love their tacos!
