Megabite Pizza (Downtown, Open late)

Megabite Pizza (web site, map, 1005 Granville Street, Vancouver, BC, Canada, phone: 604-687-0002) is a great place to stop for late night pizza in downtown Vancouver. It’s located in the middle of the Granville Street entertainment and night club district, on the corner of Granville and Nelson street. It’s across the street from the Cellar night club, and close to a late night sushi place, Kuroshio Sushi Express.

Pictured below is a slice of their vegetarian feta pizza, which was $2.50 including tax. Interestingly enough, this Megabite Pizza location was used as a film set for the upcoming movie Personal Effects, starring Michelle Pfeiffer and Ashton Kutcher, who was seen wearing a chicken suit in front of the restaurant, which had temporarily renamed itself to “Megabird Pizza”.

Baked Pork Chops from Superstore in Vancouver

For a change, I enjoyed a meal cooked at home: some baked pork chops on rice, served with steamed peas and zucchini (pictured below). I bought the ingredients from the Superstore at Rupert and Grandview Highway in Vancouver, which I think is one of the most cost-effective places to shop for groceries in Vancouver. For the pork chops, I used the no-name brand pork coating, which is about half as expensive as the name brand Shake and Bake pork coating, but still is quite flavorful. I also added some sweet plum sauce and a bit of soya sauce. Yum!
