Burgers Etc. BBQ House (Garber review) ***
Voted best burgers by CTV viewers, according to the banner in the window, this place just begged for a fair trial.

Deluxe Moderne Burger (Garber review) ****
If fifties-era diners still have a place in our world, you will likely only find them reincarnated with any degree of authenticity in very few places. One of these exceptions-to-the-rule is Deluxe Moderne Burger in Vancouver's Kitsilano.

The Red Onion ****
The best fries in town! And really excellent burgers, too.

Waffle House (Garber mini-review) ****
This cosy family-run (and family-oriented) place is a discovery I owe to my "Good Samaritan" friend, Don Sherwin, who goes there for breakfast almost daily.

Secondary Sites:
Dix Barbecue & Brewery ****
Got a hankerin' for big, meaty, authentic Southern-style BBQ ribs? If so, they're as close as downtown Vancouver, of all places. The Dix motto is "let the sauce run down your sleeves," so prepare yourself for a memorable (and possibly messy) dining experience. (Pssst: these are almost the best ribs around!)
