I'm not talking about Tojo, just good honest little places. BTW, anyone fond (or not) of Gyoza King? Tue Jan 14 11:13:08 -0800 2003 0 Hunter 1 579597 Gyoza King is good but even better is Guu with Garlic a block away on Robson. Also a new Izakaya is opening across the street from Gyoza King. Enjoy!

Wed Jan 15 02:16:53 -0800 2003 579597 0 steve 3 579602 I go for pleasure. That pleasure happens to revolve around a lot of great eating. You just can't get Dim Sum of Vancouver quality in New York. Great Sushi can be had in NY albeit at a much higher price. It happens to be my favorite place that isn't New York and we have made many close friends there from seeing local bands. -Frank Wed Jan 15 23:56:41 -0800 2003 579598 0 Iron Frank 4 579603 What bands and type of music are you into?

The new haunt that opened across from Gyoza King is called Hapa Izakaya and its awesome....izakaya but high-end decor...kinda like what an izakaya restaurant may look in NYC. I however am hooked on izakaya forever....if anyone suggests eating out...izakaya is definitely my first choice before any other kind of cuisine. Mon Mar 24 22:46:09 -0800 2003 579597 0 Phil
