As can be seen from the links that Joayne has shared the food is apparently pretty good and very well priced. The area where it is located has fallen on very hard times and is home to a lot of Vancouver's homeless population.

I was trying some old film camera equipment with my T3i to see how it might work for some "sort of macro" images. dwt is the abbreviation for pennyweight, nugget is about 1/10 troy ounce. debbie
