cruising capers

Is it just us, or is there a surplus of buff young men cruising the aisles at the new Cambie and 16th Avenue Capers Community Market?

Could be the new condos upstairs, or the fact that there’s almost an entire city block worth of wholesome groceries to be had, but either way, take a peek in his cart and see if he’s worthy:

You see: A loaf of 700 Degree wood-fired rosemary-onion bread from Savoury Coast restaurant .

Translation: He knows it from his downtown power lunches. Score one point.

You see: A deli container (made from 100 percent compostable materials, no less) filled with hand-peeled local shrimp.

Translation: He does a mean spicy shrimp quesadilla. Score one point.

You see: A bag of local, organic Yukon Gold potatoes.

Translation: he’s got a washboard and he still eats carbs. Score two points.

You see: Fair trade espresso from Ethical Bean.

Translation: There’s nothing sexier than a social conscience. Score one point.

You see: A fresh bouquet of pink dahlias with an adorable note card from the local Regional Assembly of Text.

Translation: He’s noticed you, too.
