Welcome to THE GUIDE: West End and Yaletown --ZT

The west end is dedicated to people watching, whether it be from a bar, coffee shop or restaurant. You will find some great chain restaurants such as Planet Hollywood, The Hard Rock Cafe, Hooters or Fogg and Suds. The west end is one of the most densely populated areas on the west coast of North America but the bars are few in number and are never too busy. People tend to really party in and around Gastown, only a short cab ride away. The west end is beautiful place for a walk, stop in to a restaurant for a great meal and a drink and then for a short walk to a lounge or pub.      I have to make a few recommendations. One of the best hamburgers I have ever tasted has been at HOOTERS. The fringe benefits of scantily dressed women will titillate the average male but unexcelled personal service and great burgers make this stop a must. Yes, it is a family restaurant. FOGG AND SUDS boasts the best stock of bottle beers I have ever found. Visiting them on Monday evening, which is Mexican Madness night, provides you with excellent food and drink specials. Put that together with a patio, a view over Robson street and their willingness to make a great party for your group and you will have an excellent evening. For that small pub feel and a good view, you should try the DOVER ARMS PUB where you can also try some of the best perogies in the city.

     Yaletown has found a complete rebirth in the past five years. It was once filled with factories and warehouses but now you can find restaurants, billiard parlors and the occasional bars. Yaletown is the in lace to be for yuppies and people up and coming who have some money. Microbrewries have appeared and are some of the best in the city.

     Stargazing is unparalleled in the Robson district by all of Canada.The best spots are the hotel lounges where the stars are staying for movie shoots and for series work. The Sutton Place Hotel and The Pacific Palisades are the current hotspots with the Westin Bayshore a perrenial favorite. The GERARD LOUNGE and The MONTERREY LOUNGE should be given a try to see the likes of David Bowie, Antonio Banderas or Ashley Judd. Much of our film stars are only in town for a short time while the TV stars are here for longer but tend to stay in their own place as opposed to hotels.
