Drinking in Vancouver, Canada
Yours truly is now in Vancouver, Canada to attend a wedding this weekend. Of course, I’m taking a few extra days to explore and definitely plan to hit up some local breweries and to drink plenty of British Columbia wine.
Interestingly, the very first beer I had today was at IHOP. Seriously, IHOP. I had no idea that the pancake chain offered beer in Canada. It wasn’t the most exciting meal, but a pale ale sure made it better! I simply didn’t have the energy to venture far from the hotel after a long day of travel and drinking Scotch and wine on various planes. (US Airways currently serves 12-year-old Glenlivet in case you’re wondering and some Chenin Blanc as its white.)
Unfortunately, I forgot to bring my Finger Lakes wine tasting notes, pictures, etc., so that post will have to wait until the end of next week.
By the way, any suggestions as to what to drink while here?

I just saw your earlier post on the Cayuga wine trail. My wife and I have been to the Finger Lakes twice recently to do the wine trails and we’ve had a GREAT time. It’s beautiful, and like you said, has more wine than can be sampled in a single day.
Also, the next time you’re in Ithaca, definitely eat here:

It’s a fantastic Italian restaurant with a great bar. I had one of the best Martinis of my life there.
