White Rock Foodie Tour Part 2 | The Hits & Misses
Continuing our culinary journey through White Rock - here's the real tea on two more spots! ❌ Wooden Spoon (Overhyped Brunch Alert) 📍15171 Russell Ave 📌 Verdict: Not worth the wait (even with reservations!) 1️⃣ Sweet & Salty French Toast ($18.95) ⭐️⭐️.5 Bacon (salty) + maple syrup (cloyingly sweet) = chaotic combo Like two separate dishes fighting on one plate 2️⃣ Bay Bennys ($19.95) ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 Saving grace: avocado & shrimp add texture Pet peeve: Single tiny biscuit for two eggs? Cheap move. ⭕️ Washington Avenue Grill (Pleasant Surprise!) 📍15782 Marine Dr 1️⃣ Seafood Hot Pot ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 Asian-inspired broth (think toned-down tom yum) Pro: Flavorful & comforting Con: Shrimp decent, but clams MIA 2️⃣ Braised Beef ⭐️⭐️.5 Basically salty soy-braised beef Mandatory rice pairing (unless you're a sodium fan) 3️⃣ Sangria (Happy Hour $6!) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Star of the show: Insta-worthy & delicious White version > red (lighter & fruitier) Final Thoughts: Washington Ave > Wooden Spoon for actual flavor Pro tip: Go for happy hour drinks & skip the beef #WhiteRockEats #BrunchFail #HiddenGems #VancouverFoodie
