Judging Caribe from Maizal for the @vanfoodster.bsky.social Best #SandwichChallengeYVR 2025. It's like a fusion of a fusion: a sandwich version of Tacos al Pastor that came from the Mexican-born progeny of Lebanese immigrants. Details in ALT and at vancouverfoodster.com/2025/09/25/v....

The Flair Airlines cancel for any reason fee to get a full refund is a gimmick that I’ll never fall for again, yes I got a refund on my cancelled flight from SFO to YVR but it wasn’t for the full amount ,they deducted the fee I paid, plus the premium seat. Anyone else have a similar experience?
