Chiffon Again

Update: This restaurant is now closed. The gang and I had an outing to do a photoshoot last weekend.  It was quite sunny that day so by the end of it we were exhausted, hungry, and hot.  M mentioned during the shoot that she would love to have a cup of bubble tea in her […]

Big Orange

I’m glad there’s a Big Orange Juice Bar in Richmond Centre.  It’s close enough that I don’t have to travel into Alexandra Road area to get it.  They’re no Bubble World, but they satisfy the craving once in a while.

Summer Night Market 2009

So it’s the season for the Night Market again~  Boyfriend and I went on a Sunday night and just had our “dinner” there. Not sure if it’s because of the ‘recession’, but there were a lot less vendors.  There were quite a bit of empty tents, so in total there was only about 1.5 to […]

Chiffon Chinese Cuisine 食坊

Update: This restaurant is now closed. The name might sound all fancy but it’s really just the ‘anglicized’ version of Eating Room. The restaurant is quite clean upon our entrance.  The lighting was good, floor seemed to be in clean and in good condition and the tables and chairs were placed in a tidy manner.  […]

Cherry Fruit Juice & Icy Bar 利源冰店

Part two of Parker Place Food Court. Now this was the same meal as when I had Pak Kee’s Pepper Salt Fried Chicken Nuggets with rice. For something that’s bound to induce a thirst, I gotta get a drink don’t I? Aside from the popular Pearl Castle to-go, my favorite drink place is from Cherry […]

Pak Kee Beef Noodle 栢記牛肉粉

Update Mar 15, 2012: This restaurant is now closed. It’s about time I blogged about another great Asian food court in Richmond.  The one at Parker Place has got to be one of the more successful ones, as most of the shops there have been there since day 1.  It is always busy, always difficult […]

Bubble World 大頭仔 @ Burnaby

L and I took a coworker V out for bubble tea.  Her first experience wasn’t great, so I wanted to take her to a trusted good place and order her a trusted good drink. As we work close to Metrotown, the closest and best place to choose would obviously be Bubble World on Kingsway. It […]

Van Cheong Tea Palace – Green Tea Mochi

Update Oct 3, 2009:  The Aberdeen location of this restaurant has since been shut down.  The non-restaurant location at Lansdowne is still open though. Reader Holly has been paying attention.  She noticed that I love chewy foods, so she suggested that I go try Aberdeen Centre’s Van Cheong Tea Palace’s Green Tea Mochi. So I […]

Bean Flower 台灣豆花專賣店

Update Jan 20, 2013: This restaurant is now closed. Having to drive pass Crystal Mall everyday to work, one can’t help but notice the food shops that are situated outside.  One such that caught my eye was Bean Flower, which specializes in Taiwanese tofu pudding. I love tofu pudding, especially freshly made ones.  There’s a […]

Pearl Castle 圓香

Turns out my coworkers GRock and L1 are fans of Pearl Castle 圓香 also, even though they live in Vancouver.  So we went for BBT dinner one Friday night.  I HAD to introduce GRock to Pearl Castle’s Milk Hotpot. This was it- the Milk Seafood Hotpot.  GRock and L weren’t expecting much from it.  In […]
