Whole Foods Market - Vancouver

This chain of wholesome foods originated in the States, and that was where I had my first Whole Foods experience, so I was not sure what to expect coming into the Vancouver one. I was happily surprised to see that they continued to offer a fresh selection of foods from the deli, as well as a salad bar that was up to par with the American counterpart. Always a great option for a quick lunch, or grabbing something to prepare for dinner.

I enjoy Whole Food's instore events and I hear about them via Facebook.  One event I attended recently was their Cheese Night.  They had samples of artisanal goat cheese and a staff member provided you with some background about them.  <br/ <br/ They also have a few events where you can sample foods that help support local charities.  I usually go to Whole Foods  Cambie for these ticketed events, but I'd be interested in coming more to this Robson location in the future.

Capers ' Burrito Bar Ole!. While in Vancouver last weekend, we wandered the banal culinary wasteland of Robson Street, finally opting for a quick nosh at Capers Market a place I 've been many times before for sandwiches, soups and salads. We noticed a new burrito bar, so gave it a try. Half the fun was watching the gal pile on our favourite fillings. And when at Capers, you can count on healthy, fresh, organic ingredients. Wow, what a burrito!!! Just about as good as the ones I 'd eaten in San Francisco 's Mission District or Mexico proper! Capers ' version blows away all the pretenders you get at so called 'Mexican ' restaurants in downtown Vancouver, or m y hometown of Victoria.<br/ <br/ Not to mention, at under ten bucks, the price is more than right.

FAMOUS GREAT FOOD AND FAMOUS PEOPLE. My first time in vancouver would prove to be one of my greatest vacations ever! i flew up to vancouver to spend a week with a girl i met and she brought me here for lunch. the place looked so fancy and they had the greatest gourmet items anyone could imagine. this place is a foodies dream!<br/ <br/ we looked around for a while and ended up getting some sandwiches and salads to share. as we were checking out i saw this guy that looked so familiar. oh my god! that's martin sheen! i had to go say hello. he asked me where i was from so i told him i was from the bay area and he aid he was just their for some rally. i got a picture with him and he asked if i wanted to sit with him for lunch. hell wes i did! we talked for a half hour or so and went our own way. he is a really nice guy and so down to earth. i just hope he doesn't forget me! LOL<br/ <br/ in all it was a great experience at capers. to think someone like martin sheen shops there really tells you something. this store was amazing and for many years i couldn't think of the name. i recently found out they are in it with whole foods. now i know why i was so impressed.

Whole Lotta Foods going on Capers. Since been bought out over a year ago, a few things from Whole foods have trickled into my local Capers. So far my favourite is hot breakfast for 10 bucks. I had the eggs any style, bacon, hash browns toast and coffee. Not only was it an excellent bang for my buck, but breakfast out alone never seemed so lovely. Sitting on the balcony, reading my book watching the street go by... And the food was exceptional. Best breakfast I've had out in a long time. Will be back for more. <br/ :
