Mixed feelings

So I'm heading out for a ~3-week shoot in Vancouver. Although shoots can be pretty grueling, they are the "fun" part of advertising. I love to travel, but this is a long time to be away from my beloved NYC. I think my previous record for being gone is 2 weeks. Will Vancouver have decent bagels? I've heard there are izakayas in the city, but will they be as inviting as Satsko? Will I be able to watch MTV and Bravo at the hotel? Also, since this is a business trip vs. a vacation, I'm a little less open to new experiences than usual and a bit more concerned with whether there will be Wireless access and my cell phone will work.
