Walking through Market Square, I saw that Green Cuisine's sign
has changed from this to "We're OPEN! Welcome Back 10am-8pm"
They've been closed for quite sometime now ever since the
fire. I've been missing their delicious vegan cuisine, badly!
For the record, I had a hard time taking these photos due to
sheer excitement; What are we waiting for? Let's go inside!

Holy Moly! This all looks amazing :)
This is the one that had the fire right???? anyway, I wish we had one of these!
Okay, that's it. I'm coming to BC.
Wow, this looks awesome!! I'd love to eat there!!
Whoa, everything looks so delicious! We need a vegan buffet restaurant 'round here.
OMG! I am so going there on my next trip to Victoria!
Yay! There back. I love it!
Oh my gosh, I wish we had a place like that here. It looks amazing! You can't ever go wrong with a healthy buffet like that!
Holy yum! Everything looks delicious I really want to go there
I want a Green Cuisine to open where I live, if just for the dessert!
Oh my word- I'm dying! This looks absolutely phenomenal.
wow, this place looks so cozy and all that yummy food!!! what did you have to eat there or what are your favourite things?
Words cannot convey the deep envy I feel looking at that vast selection of goodies. I think there are more yummy vegan options there than in every cafe, restaurant and deli in the UK combined.

Wow! That's quite the restaurant! The desserts alone make me want to go there... I'm too chicken to take pictures in public...luckily for us, you aren't! :)
That's great to hear that they've re-opened! Come back kids!!! :)
Thanks so much for these awesome pictures!!!
totally reminds me of Whole Foods I went yesterday!!! Looks great!! :D
Can you believe, in all my years of living in Victoria, I have never been to Green Cuisine? I know, crazy eh? I'm gonna have to go next time I'm over. Didn't know you used to work there though!
I wish we had a restaurant like "Green Cuisine" in my city.
