Hi AngryRussian here! On the afternoon of Saturday November 3rd, 2 friends and I, Noles and Junk, went up to the Westwood Plateau Golf and Country Club for the bi-annual Coquitlam Craft Beer Festival. It’s a great no-token beer fest with around 40 beer/cider/food stalls. It was my 3rd time at the event and I’ve noticed that […]
AngryRussian had been dying to take me to John B. Pub, a place he’s been going to for years, and one night we finally had the chance. John B is a casual pub restaurant in Coquitlam with an attached liquor store. It is super roomy with plenty of tvs to watch the games from. There’s […]
I forgot where I read about Cake’Ya. It’s a tiny little operation located in Port Moody that makes a small selection of Japanese (Okinawan) goodies. Small selection but each type of goody comes in an assortment of flavors. Easter Sunday we decided to have a relaxing day and head to Rocky Point Park. On the […]
I remember wanting to visit Coffee Monster for a while now but it had fallen off my radar, but feeling like dessert one night, I googled what’s in the area and Coffee Monster popped up. So AngryRussian and I took a walk there to see what they had to offer at 10:00pm on a Friday […]

It was held at the Westwood Plateau Golf & Country Club in Coquitlam and featured 30+ breweries and 8-10 restaurants from around the city. Upon entry you receive a taster glass and a plate and then you can start going around the 2 […]
Sushi California is a chain of Korean-run sushi restaurants that offer pretty decent portion sizes for not a lot of money. It’s one of AngryRussian’s favorite places to eat actually. We always go to the Coquitlam location on North Road. They remind me a lot of Sushi Garden in a lot of ways. The pricing, […]
I had originally wanted to take AngryRussian to Hee Rae Dang for his first non-Korean-BBQ-Korean dinner experience. However it was just our luck that Hee Rae Dang was closed for renovations until- get this- the next day, so we kind of just walked around the area where Insadong is located and then I settled on […]
When MarathonMan from Calgary came to visit, GRock, L, him and I all went for dinner at Hee Rae Dung, which is a Korean-style Chinese restaurant. This means, no Korean BBQ, no fear of smelling like it after! This is a restaurant that MarathonMan’s family, who’s Korean, frequent (he does not speak a word of […]
In my continued effort to find a Korean restaurant in the lower mainland that serves a Galbitang comparable to the one I had at New Seoul in the States, I’ve asked a Korean coworker for recommendations, and she suggested Wang Ga Ma in Coquitlam. Fannypack was once again my partner in crime. The Seafood Pancake […]
