In a city with the nick name rain city you'd this that the idiot architects that have somehow convinced other idiots to choose their incompetent designs would understand the importance of an awning. Short awning interrupted by gaping open areas, awning that tilt back towards but do not touch the building (Woodwards) non existent awnings and awnings that leak like sinking ships. I can't find an awning that isn't wetter underneath it than otherwise. Is everybody in this town just plain stupid?

Yes. Not only are the designs flawed but they are also ugly.

And if you do find an awning, some jerk with an open umbrella will be standing under it.

Creativity, not practical

Chefs make an eye-appealing-presentation of colour and food on the plate.....they don't give a damn that you have to cut it up into bite size pieces to eat it and that it is time consuming and that the cutlery is dull, nor the fact that the process of doing it results in annoying screeching and clanking on the plate.

I mentioned this to my waitress (politely) and she actually went back (I gave her a good tip because she did this) and asked the Chef; the response; Presentation is the most important.

Soooo...I'm paying in annoyance and embarrassment for the noise and time spent (with dull cutlery) with the eye- pleasing palette plus- my food gets cool while trying to gracefully hack apart his "presentation creation"( that's to say nothing of the cooling because it waited too long before I got it because the Chef is indulging his Artsy- Creative skills on everybody else's plate)

This was one of Vancouver's better Dining Out Establishments as well- so; you would think it would be better.

Bottom line Artsy- Creative is asinine past a certain point...... and Architects are even more inflexible than the Chef; I mentioned.
