Your Mission CoMpleted: Coffee vs. teaWe certainly suspected as much, but now it’s official: vancouver is a coffee town, judging by what you shared this
week with your fellow Gastroposters after we asked you to take sides in a heated battle of the hot beverages. tea has its champions, but in the end it’s no contest! on these pages, twitter handles are in blue and instagram in brown.
