plus they make sandwiches and soups to eat in or take out.  Very good!!!
1939 Cornwall Avenue . Vancouver . BC . Canada
 
 
Choices Rice Bakery has a little dessert cafe.  It's on 16th  avenue


True Confections makes amazing cheesecakes - all wheat free except the  
tiramisu.  You might double check when you go in, I have a corn allergy so  I have 
to be extra careful with some of the syrups.  True Confections has  three or 
four locations in Vancouver - one on 10th, one downtown on Denman and  one in 
North Vancouver


Restaurants:
Pan Pacific Hotel
Milestones (all over)
Cactus Club Cafe (all over) 
White Spot (all over) protein wrap burgers.
