The Stock Market - Vancouver

This used to be one of my favorite places years ago. It was a total disappointment. Their 'creamy ' fish soup had no fish! Absolutely did not taste or smell or had any fish texture. Not a single piece made it creamy, but a potato soup. Basically tasted like creamy nothing... My friend got the vegetables soup and said it was to hot/spicy. The bread was OK. The overall food quality and taste was pretty poor.

One of Granville Islands treasures. I purchased vegetable stock for use in making a complicated soup and I found it perfect for the recipe. I am sure whatever else they sell is equally good but I can't vouch for it all personally.

We didn?t get the stupid this place but we really enjoyed the offerings they had in their market. We got some delicious flavored compound butter and some broth. We also loved all the cooking aids that they had that could really amped up a meal into something special.

Husband and I were thirsty so we stumbled upon this shop. They offered freshly made Blueberry Lemonade and Black Currant Lemonade. Both flavors were unique and we had never seen it anywhere before. Opted for the Black Currant Lemonade and it was AMAZING! The perfect level of sweetness with no tart lemon bite. Very refreshing and we would definitely get it again. You can return the glass bottle to get back 25 cents, which we decided to do since I like to collect coins from other countries we travel to. Service was great, the gentlemen that assisted us were friendly. Next time we visit we?ll try other items on the menu!

This placed smelled really good, so I had to try the Smoked Salmon Chowder. I would say it was pretty flavorful, but not stunning. The chowder was a little thin watery, I would've liked it to be a thicker consistency. Also the potato to Salmon ratio is definitely leaning more heavily on the potato side. Overall, still decent, but probably wouldn't get that chowder again.
