Thanks for visiting!
EatSnapRepeat.ca was originally launched as the.caf.sux in April 2007.
The switch in name accompanied a switch in blogging platform from Blogger to WordPress in January 2008.
the.caf.sux was born out of our frustration towards the bland and overpriced food at our workplace’s cafeteria. We were sick of wasting our hard-earned income and precious lunch hour on uninspiring food served in a boring environment. It sucked.
We created this blog to encourage and record our little lunchtime escapes from the workplace cafeteria. We started off only blogging the restaurants within the vicinity of our workplace. To the annoyance of our friends and family who have had to endure countless occurrences of, “no wait, don’t eat yet, let me take a picture of that first“, we have since decided to blog and share the culinary experiences in, around, and occasionally outside the Vancouver area. Lucky us, there’s plenty worth sharing in Vancouver.
We hope you enjoy this blog!
Who are we?
There are 2 writers behind EatSnapRepeat.ca. We (Daniel and Eddie) are both twenty-something techies living in beautiful Vancouver, Canada. We spend a lot of our time writing software – blogging is a nice escape for us.

Absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this website!! Since I love food, I can’t wait to try some of these great restaurants in Vancouver/surrouding areas.
You guys are absolute genius!
You should really advertise this site and get the restaurants to pay you for being such good food critics!

Do let us know what you think if you ever try any of the places.
Oh and we love you too!

Ok, I went through your archives and made a list of nine places I will be trying soon. I lived for a few years in China, Taiwan and Japan, and was looking for some local places with good food from there. Thanks for writing about all these great places!
(Try Kura on Kingway yet, by the way.)

@Maktaaq
I’m curious what are the nine places?
Btw, if you’re planning to visit Accord for their noodles, I’d wait a week or two, as I tried to go on the weekend and they had a sign up saying they’re on summer vacation. Couldn’t remember when they get back though.
I have tried Kura on Kingsway, and was pretty satisfied with their food. Gave them 8/10 in the ESR quickies section. Comparable to Isami and Sushi Hachi, which are all above average.

Help!!
Love this website, just your normal person who enjoys eating with value in mind. I have been trying to find another restaurant like the SNOW GARDEN which was on Main & 49 th Ave. I passed a spot maybe on Nainaimo St that had a banner which said former cooks from the Snow Garden. Do you know anything about this or any other restaurant that serves similar taste and dishes??
I recommend when in RMD, go to IZUMIAS, 1 blk west on Alderbridge and #3 Rd, same building as X Cargo – for take out or eat in, made fresh and serves miso soup (80 cents), and not trucked in like Fujiyas in Bridgeport.

OK guys, you need to eat out more or else talk about it at least.
I’ve tried quite a few of the places you’ve mentioned and am ready to check out more places.
What’s going on, have you now learned to cook and are no longer dining out? That would be a sad day for me.
Current favs are Mak’s Noodle House, Da Rae Oak, and of course, Richmond food courts.

Hey Holly. We most certainly are coming back, though maybe in a slightly different format. If you have any pics/reviews you want to share though, let us know :). I’m sure it’d be a great first guest post for ESR.

Thank you so much for publishing this blog. It’s wonderful, I love it. Makes a real difference in my restaurant choice. I’m a longtime subscriber!

Thanks for reading Matt! We really appreciate it.
The number of Vancouver food blogs just keeps growing and growing. I find that, as I subscribe to more and more blogs, my restaurant choices are also increasingly being influenced by what others have to share on the interwebs.
On one hand, it’s great because I’m never short of ideas on places to try. On the other hand, there’s just too many places to try! :)

I do not know if it’s just me or if everybody else encountering problems with
your website. It seems like some of the text in your posts are running off the screen. Can someone else
please provide feedback and let me know if this
is happening to them as well? This might be a problem with my browser because I’ve had this happen before.
Many thanks
