What: Griffins Restaurant 
Where: at the Hotel Vancouver
When: Dinner time
Why: Vancouver Dineout 2011 
There are few things in life that can cause my heart to skip a beat, and hearing the sweet words, "dessert buffet" is one of them. It only took me 5 minutes to make the reservations (thank you Opentable!) and me and my sister found ourselves practically skipping to the restaurant on a Sunday night. Now, this is not to take away from the actual dinner that we feasted on: My sister enjoyed her seafood chowder and salmon entree (perfectly cooked and fresh) and I thoroughly savoured the onion tart and artichoke ravioli. I have to admit, I was starting to feel a little full from dinner, but I made sure there was enough room somewhere above my liver for dessert. Four different types of desserts to sample and we happily waddled our way home.
