So looks like both Eat Vancouver and this event are held in the new convention center? That would be great to visit both events!

went to EPIC today and had lots of fun. There was free beer sample and they are very willing to pour and free wine. Also sample of good maple candy salmon, some dips, chips, juice, coffee ...etc. I had fun talking to ppl on their sustainable products and bought some stuffs there. (Lotion, facial sponge, small bowls, silk dress...etc) I also found some interesting products (re-usable laundry balls, mineral cosmetic, baby care products) but didn't have enough time to go through every booth. I wished I went earlier (instead of 5 pm). Found most ppl very friendly and welling to explain and not pushy at all.

Went to both Eat Vancouver and Epic.
This is my first time to go inside the new convention center. I'm quite disappointed. The exhibition hall is just sooo small, especially in Eat Vancouver. Very poor layout. The food booths are all near the entrance and almost can't walk through and see what's serving. The path is just too narrow. I thought the "NEW" convention center should be much larger and spacious than the old one. Yeah the open area seems more spacious and well design but too bad the exhibition hall aren't.

Anyway, nothing too exciting in Eat Vancouver but as I got free ticket, won't complain.

About Epic Vancouver, I was there really late so didn't spend much time on it. But I do enjoy the fashion show and yeah, the free beer sample is quite good. I got sample of "green" detergent as well. And since it's near the end, some vendor just GIVE OUT their stuff free. Whole food (i believed so) gave out a few pineapple. And I got a bag of free coffee bean too.
