Rev's 10 pin bowling on lougheed, very good ice breaker.
8 ball cafe Pool hall once again a good ice breaker.
Playland, when it's open of course.
I'm sure snowboarding would be fun :) or skiing whatever floats your boat
Oh dinner up on the ski hill, snow falling, fireplaces in the restuarant (dont' know if there are any)...soooo nice.
ohhhh going up to see santa on grouse!

Posted: 11/2/2005 1:06:51 AM | | I like the view from the Bayside Lounge (on the corner of Denman and Davie Streets). It has a great view of the sunsets and English Bay. There's a Starbucks downstairs so the meeting can start there and then, if the meeting is going well, move upstairs to the Bayside and it's round bar. There are a lot of restaurants within a block too. | |

If the weather's good a walk along the waterfront, or one of the little restaurants?
Crescent Beach in White Rock - a few very nice little places down there. | |

Posted: 11/2/2005 7:30:17 AM | | There is a nice place not far from me called Bailey's on Ogden Avenue in Westmont, IL. It has nice places where you can talk without being overheard. It's almost an intimate place if you want some sort of private place to talk. The menu is fine and the choice of beverages is good. | |

- Budget: Stephos (Davie&Thurlow), Mongol Terriyaki (The Drive), Antons (4260 E Hastings)
- Korean: Jang Mo Jib* (1719 Robson St, 1031 Kingsway), Shabusen A.Y.C.E. (14th & Granville location is better than the Burrard St one, lunch is a steal)
- Japanese: amazing one on Davie across from Urban Fare (best Tuna Tetaki in town)*
- Vegetarian: Naam (w4th&McDonald), Deserts (a dive on The Drive)
- Ribs: Montanas* (Coquitlam Center or Langley), Memphis Blues (Commercial "The" Drive)
- Beatnik: Cafe Deux Soleil (The Drive)
- Best Portugese rolls in town: Fortuna Bakery, near Antons on Hastings, who use them
- Mexican: Las Margaritas* - 1999 W 4th Ave
- Fine Dining**: Tea House (Stanley Park), The Cannery, Grouse Mountain, Capers (Coal Harbour)
* = pricey | |

Posted: 11/3/2005 6:07:24 AM | I'd say go for Tapas at either BIN 941 or 942 in Vancouver.
My personal preference is BIN 942 at West Broadway and Granville.
If you feel like spending alot of money and like Indian, try Vij's.
As for seafood, the choices I would recommend are either the Cannery or C.
Pasta it would be Anducci's at Lougheed.
But if you want a romantic picnic, get me to cater it for you. My rates are resonable.  | |

Posted: 11/3/2005 5:50:16 PM | gee thanks BVM...Missy googled it for me too...and I appreciate that
Of course all the restaurants say fine dining, blah blah blah. I did find out there is one take out pizza place, and seeing as they are supposed to have a high of 3C and it is going to SNOW there on Saturday, staying in doesnt sound half bad....

Posted: 11/4/2005 4:46:02 PM | Always found going to the golf driving range and then playing a game of minature golf a great & inexpensive first date. Lots of time to chat & get to know each other, also allows for you to concentrate on other things than what to talk about next, possibly have a few laughs.
If the chemistry is there, you can also get nice and close as you help each other out with the swing or putting. | |
