Vancouverite Quickie Restaurant Review: Cassis

cassis-review-three.jpg

Boy this is embarassing. Yeeesh. Just yesterday I was saying, "honest to god I was getting sick of Cassis all the time." And then of course I was there for lunch right after it. That's awkward....

Now they probably have one the best BLT's ever. "Pancetta bacon, roasted tomatoes and avocado." Always a great call. But, I've been there. Done that. Many times. So did I really see this on the menu: "Meatloaf Panini - $10.75 Veal meatloaf, roasted tomato chutney, caramelized onion mayo, jalapeno havarti, ciabbata". Um. You had me at veal meatloaf, Cassis, and I stayed for the jalepeno havarti. Good lord. Bonus points: tomato cumin soup that was as crazy as Britney Spears. Serious. Bottom line: you could pay 8 bucks for a Subway sandwich, or your could pay 10.75 for a slice of heaven. Your call.

Downsides: No expresso. Please. And their new website branding is nothing like a french bistro or the joint itself.
