to the point

tuesday was a loooong day. woke up at 6:40, class at 8:00 straight till 12:30, did homework during the break before my next class at 2:00, finished at 3:30 then came home and started doing more homework. AND i didn't even have my 6:00-8:00 exercise physiology lab this week! i was exhausted and just could not muster up the energy to cook something. so, my roommate julia (of the english girl in bc), went to the point grill at marine drive.
now, i have been told by many a friend that the wild salmon fish and chips is awesome. i wasn't sure how the salmon was going to stand up to being deep fried, but it actually worked out. verdict = pretty tasty! i mean really, i like anything deep fried which is probably a bad thing, but sometimes you just gotta go for it. this was one of those times! you have to try it, just to say you have!

yum   : )

now. i do have to mention a very pivotal part of the meal. we already talked about the fish. now it's time for the chips. garlic fries. ooooh man they were tasty! to some people they may have been a bit garlicy, but i love garlic, so they were peerrfeecctttt!

me + garlic fry = happiness  : )

also good was the granville island pale ale, which was relatively cheap. the batter for the fish and chips had the ale in it, so the meal went well together.

so, there you have it! our time at the point grill was good: our waiter was very friendly and the service was quite fast. i would recommend it to other students, it's relatively priced, there are healthy options (as you can see i just couldn't resist deep fried deliciousness) and it just means when you have lazy days like my tuesday, you can go somewhere to relax and have food made for you!
