A non-exclusive list of things you should definitely put on your to-do list this week.

In case you're in a pinch for a beautiful themed gift for tomorrow, check out the shops in Gastown for some pretty special finds for your friend, partner, or family--whoever you want to share love with tomorrow.

Get inspired by these beautiful living art pieces from Olla Urban Flower Project.

The much anticipated Gastown delicatessen is open on the corner of Cordova and Carrall. British bangers, charcuterie, cheeses, and Stumptown coffee. 

There is a lot of special menus and sweet treats in Gastown for this Valentine's Day for you to treat that special someone.

House Guest’s winter/early spring menu comes as an entirely new package, rethought and reworked into an exciting new array of flavours and experiences. “As everybody knows, House Guest is a party, and we want to bring that atmosphere to the dining room,” says new chef Jimmy Stewart,  “So we revamped the food and made it more accessible to people. We made the menu very personal – it’s a direct representation of my career.”

Tucked upstairs in their Cordova and Abbott Street studios, The Sequence Group is a local, full service production doing big things in the world of animation and live action projects. With clients spanning from Warner Brothers, Microsoft, and Disney, with work on projects like Halo andEnd Game under their belt, their varied artistic style and creative focus has, clearly, paid off well. "It's really about creating a fun, cool space for people to come and work, rather than a job where you go punch in," says Ian Kirby, founder and owner of the company. Day to day, the team relishes in creative freedom, and each member contributes to the company's well-appreciated, painterly style.

Sometimes things happen quickly, especially when it just feels right. That's the case with L'Atelier Home's new expansion next door, a collaborative effort between the home decor destination and a new concept womens clothing store, Artemisia. As soon as Artemisia owner Parvaneh and L'Atelier's Linda met and started discussing ideas, it just seemed like a good fit, and things fell together quickly.  "We met a couple months ago," explains Linda, "It seemed like a great idea. It was always in the back of my head -- to have clothing, furniture, and home decor."
