Wings Pub & Grill on Kingsway

L and I felt like wings and beer after a swim.  Actually, we went swimming just so we can have wings and beer afterwards.  She lives really close to Wings, and her place has a pool, 1+1=2! We didn’t realize it was the first night of the restart of UFC though, so basically when we […]

Cork and Fin

Update: This restaurant is now closed. It was Mom’s birthday this month so Pretty Sis and I took her and some other family members to a place interestingly called Cork and Fin in Gastown.  I guess by that name it means they specialize in wines and seafood?? They are a participant of the Let’s Go […]

Simba’s Grill on Denman

Been wanting to try foods of a different culture for a while.  Finally my chance came when I went to dinner with GRock.  He gave me 3 choices: Korean, Ramen, or African.  I picked African right away. So that became Simba’s Grill on Denman (they also have a location in Burnaby).  Apparently another coworker had […]

Sunway Restaurant 三味

Update:  This restaurant is now closed. It’s been a while huh.  Not gonna lie it’s been a busy busy summer for sure.  Hopefully I’ll get back to the groove of blogging again~  Here goes! My good good friend LockerBud and I were trying to decide on a place for dinner.  At first we were going […]

Bandidas Taqueria

I had drove past Bandidas Taqueria quite a few times and it was last Christmas that I’ve mentioned to L and Jube that we should try it.  However this visit was with neither of them, but with GRock, purely because of our mutual love for sangrias. It was a very casual place, which was funny […]

The King’s Head Pub

Update: This restaurant is now closed. The King’s Head Pub really isn’t a place I would’ve chosen to go to, based on how it looks.  It looks really dingy and dark and dirty.  However the reviews mostly seem to be good, citing good food, good drinks, good atmosphere.  Plus, the new friend that I made […]

Au Bar Nightclub

It was a night out with the girls on a Saturday night.  None of us really have much experience going clubbing so I had the job of picking a place.  After asking around, the first suggestion I received was Au Bar.  So after reading up on Google, we (I) decided to give this place a […]

Pho Century

Update: This restaurant has moved to a new location. It was another lunch outing with the coworkers.  This time we decided to visit a new place (new as in we’ve never been to it before) on Willingdon and Kingsway called Pho Century.  From the outside it looks like one of those dirty, dingy places, what, […]

陽光屋 Sunshine Cafe

L and I really felt like have bubble tea after work one weekend.  She really wanted to go to Crystal Mall.  However, I was scared.  It was the weekend.  At Crystal Mall.  But I sucked it up and drove there.  However after walking around the food court a few times, we still couldn’t pick anything, […]

Dine Out Vancouver 2010: The Refinery

For my last Dine-out experience of 2010, we went to a place called The Refinery which is located on Granville. It’s a very small restaurant located on top of Sip Lounge (I think they’re owned by the same people).  However it has quite an intimate setting and we were impressed. For my appetizer I picked […]
