Celine’s Fish & Chips on Granville Island

A friend ordered Calamari $11 and Sheepie got a side order of onion rings $4. I don’t remember the last time I had onion rings, but do remember growing up eating these from fast food chains. Ah…the unhealthy teenage diet. But with that over, this was extremely greasy. I couldn’t eat much of the onion rings. I thought the calalmari was decent but the oil and grease fills you up quickly. It also didn’t help that the dining area by the food court is contained by all-glass walls. We were sitting in direct sunlight and we were soon sweating and not really enjoying the food.

Onion rings $4 Calamari $11

Service was really slow and a bit disorganized. The staff was cranky and not at all friendly. Sheepie noticed one staff throw something but it wasn’t at anyone, nor into the garbage. He said it just fell to the floor. I missed all that, so not sure what happened. I personally wouldn’t order anything from here since it’s not my cup of tea, but I don’t mind taking 2 or 3 calamari to enjoy.

Curry Express in Metrotown

I love Indian curry! and when I go to the mall, most often, I’d eat curry. Curry Express is located at many malls. The one at Metrotown is alright. Service is usually good. Portion is fair. Seats can be found most of the time, though depending on the cleaning rounds, you may find only dirty tables.

There are a variety of choices, but I always go for my favourite – butter chicken with rice. $5.60 Sure, it’s obviously not the best curry – but for fast food, I think it’s pretty decent.

In comparison to other Curry Express:

Do not eat at the one in International Village Mall (also known as Tinseltown mall). The food there is old (doesn’t take good – blah), small portions and although the food court is empty, it’s a bit depressing there.
The Oakridge Mall one is the best for food. The older woman is rude and terrible, but the girl who serves the dishes usually gives a lot on the plate.

Vina at Metrotown Mall

I ordered the Beef Pho $7.25. It wasn’t tasty although the look was deceiving. Beef was hard to eat. What can I say, eating at a busy mall food court where it’s dirty isn’t all that pleasant. Doesn’t make the food taste good either.
