In a previous post I touched briefly about Blenz Coffee Shops and today I find myself writing about them again, why, because they rock! Today I am writing particularly about the Downtown Blenz coffee shop in Bentall 5, my other favourite is at Richards and Davie. There are so many coffee shops all over Vancouver, why do I continually go back to Blenz and this one in particular? There are many reasons the service is great, the coffee is excellent and there seems to be a continual supply of men wandering downstairs and filtering through the doors, (hello ladies, who says there are no men in Vancouver) and if that’s not enough healthy food that I can actually digest. Now they have added even more healthy alternatives with their exciting new Protein shakes. YUM!
Being a Celiac (I cannot digest gluten) for the longest time I struggled with finding something to eat other than salads at the local coffee shops. This particular Blenz has taken care of us problem children by offering yummy gluten free alternatives. Every day they offer at least one tasty gluten free soup special and from first hand experience I can attest that they are well worth trying. As someone who has always made my soup from scratch I swear these soups taste like I cooked them myself! If you are feeling the need for something sweet they also offer a gluten free banana flax date loaf and an incredible gluten free vegan peanut butter, chocolate chunk cookie that is very addictive (my personal weakness).
Now they have these incredible protein shakes with 30 grams whey powder, yogurt, real fruit, or Belgian chocolate, peanut butter, or premium matcha, depending on the flavour requested.
Flavour choices:
Strawberry Banana – strawberries, banana, yogurt, whey powder
Power Mochachillo – Belgian chocolate, espresso, yogurt, whey powder
Mixed berries – blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, yogurt, whey powder
PB Banana Chocolate – peanut butter, banana, Belgian chocolate, yogurt, whey powder
Power Matcha – matcha premix, yogurt, whey powder
Mango Banana - mangos, banana, yogurt, whey powder
Special note: Keep in mind that not all Blenz coffee shops offer the gluten free food as they are individually owned and operated, but they do all offer the same great coffee and fabulous new protein shakes. http://blenzcommunity.com/
What more could you ask for? Great service, healthy food you can digest (no easy feat for a Celiac) and a plethora of men (employed men). Good grief ,why would you not go? Special note: For the optimum men capacity the best time to drop into Blenz at Bentall 5 is Monday to Friday from 8 – 6pm. For all the other Blenz shops anytime is a good time for great coffee , wonderful service, fabulous food and healthy new protein drinks.
PS. If you happen to see me there please make sure and stop by and introduce yourself.
