Maybe it’s worth a discussion about whether the Van Mag awards are “bullshit” or not?

Well considering the accolades Melissa Craig garned this year to see the same old” bestest advertiser” take gold again is pretty funny and considering they slapped the old “take out a mortgage kick in the teeth” that had the BB pull their ads for a year seems pretty much as the Beasties would say”:Some Old Bullshit” I would like to see why The BB gets tagged with the outrageous price tag repeatedly while at any other resort or high end city establishment you would be parting with about the same amount of cash, and minus the sabreing, live jazz, and feeling that you may have experianced something other than just another ridiculously expensive meal in as “name” establishment when the closest the “Name” got to your plate was showing the drones how to asemble it. At least you have a very good chance that Melissa designed, cooked and plated your food.

We have such a great restaurant scene in Vancouver, but such a crap magazine that represents our great city. Vancouver magazine is so boring and is such a bad representation of what our city is all about. How many more articles can we read about Bob Rennie or West restaurant. Come on people, Vancouver deserves better!!!! Let’s see some CREATIVITY!!!! Van Mag’s Restaurant guide is a complete rip off of Toronto’s Restaurant Guide. Van Mag is so unoriginal that they can’t even come up with their own individual Restaurant Guide!!!! This city needs more!!!!!

Two things…. 1)don’t go if you don’t like it, nobody is twisting your arm….2)If you’re not a part of the solution, you are a part of the problem, nobody seems to have any recommendations on how to make things better, they just want to bitch about it. I think it’s time to put your big girl panties on ‘gentlemen’.
