Mariann shares:  Notes from My Summer Vacation

Searching for gluten-free options while in Vancouver BC led me to Lemonade Gluten Free Bakery and some of the most amazing sweet treats I have ever had in my entire life!  Often I feel cheated after visiting gluten-free bakeries since so many of the treats I sample don’t present themselves well in terms of flavor or texture BUT!!  not here!!  oh no, not at Lemonade. 

Tim and I went in a search for sweet treats for breakfast and we were not disappointed. We also could not pick so we just had to have what our hearts called out for……..  On the spot we sampled the Profiterole, Cinnamon Danish, Pear Almond Brioche, Berry Muffin, and Chocolate Croissant – while taking a bag for later of seeded breads and buns!

Everything we ate was Simply Divine with the seeded breads making our dinner at the harbor later that evening the Perfect Vacation Finale!

A Note from Mariann – June 2015 – My Summer Vacation:)

In June I traveled to the Pacific Northwest, specifically Olympia WA, Puget Sound San Juan Islands, finishing up in Vancouver, BC, Canada! 

The following commentary relates to our meal at Edible Canada at the Market on Granville Island!

We had a wonderful encounter in Vancouver while visiting Granville Market.  After repeated attempts to find a place to enjoy an evening cocktail with dinner, that would allow me to partake, Tim and I wandered into the courtyard at Edible Canada.  A Bistro, Artisan Store and Canadian specialty small batch treat shop (more on that in a minute) with lots of options and accommodations available for gluten-free dining.

To start – the bar stocks a local g-f brew, the Whistler Brewery,  g-f Lager,  Forager!  A great beer.   We dined on Chorizo Chowder, Salmon, and Sturgeon,  with locally harvested fresh vegs,   Dinner was a delight!  Ambiance amazing!  and the Service was spectacular – thank you Laura! 

After dinner we sat at the bar for a coffee and hot chocolate drink while simultaneously taking side trips in the Artisan store – stocking up on handmade caramel popcorn, dark chocolate coated sponge candy, cake-in-a-jar, smoked salmon, and sea salts. 

When you have the opportunity to escape away for a break – Vancouver is an amazing place to visit- The city is full of g-f friendly options and with super informed staff.  My suggestion would be this –  if the person at the door has no clue what you are asking when making a g-f inquiry don’t go there – keep looking for options in the neighborhood or just head to the dock and take the Aquabus across the harbor to Granville Harbor for your shopping and dining pleasures.  You will not be disappointed:)
