Slickity Jim's - Chattin' and Chewin'

One of the favourite brunch places for weekends. It's where you can be called "love" or "dear" while you order yummy goodness. The menu is full of delicious hearty creations that you can enjoy surrounded by the mismatched eye candy collected from the left over bins of garage sales. As an added bonus, you can also revisit your favourite transit seats if you were a BC Transit rider during the 80's as these 2 seater chairs form the booths of the Chat n Chew. It's difficult to paint a complete picture of the restaurant without going into great detail about every single item in place. You just have to experience it. Go with a friend. Maybe two. Just watch the line ups if you go on the weekend. However, it is worth the wait. The caveat on days like this is that service can be particularly slow so just make sure you don't have to be anywhere soon. Perhaps while you wait you could go a couple of doors down to Lugz and get yourself a Canadiano.

Out of 5 lumps of sugar

Scene: 4 lumps - not a 5 because it can be a bit squishy in there if it is really busy. I mean think of yourself in the 80's being squished in a full bus. Now picture a table with food on it in front of you. Squishy.
Grub: 4 can I suggest the Cheesy Fungi. If not for the mushroom and cheese, then for the waitress to ask, "Who's the Cheesy Fungi?"
Coffee: 2 Utilitarian, but because it always seems like there is such high turn over you know you will have fresh utilitarian.
