Sunday lunch/brunch in Vancouver?

We enjoyed a good sunday brunch buffet at the Cafe Pacifica located in Pan Pacific Hotel (at Canada Place).

as quoted on their website:
"Vancouver's most popular Sunday Market Brunch features fresh local seafood, colour salads, succulent fruits, dim sum, omelettes, wok dishes, carved roasts of the day and decadent desserts. And that's only the beginning! There's also live music, friendly smiles, and a stunning view of Vancouver's famous harbour."

Senyor Parellada in Barcelona - Photo report

Hi Perceptor,
Your photo reports are very enticing!

While this is not a food related question, can you kindly tell me how you manage to capture such amazing shots of the interior of the restaurants? Do you use a tripod while opening the aperture and/or shutter speed?...or are these on auto mode?
What camera are you using, btw?
Any tip is appreciated. thanks

Barcelona in August

We stayed near the Placa Catalunya area and considering how central and accessible the location is to the public transportation, I would stay in the same area in a heart beat.

Our favorites were: L'Olive (not documented) and Taller de Tapas. See to be convinced.
