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 […]

The Jade Seafood Restaurant 玉庭軒

I’ve been very fortunate lately to have at least one weekday off per week to go have dim sum with my mom.  I love going to “yum cha”, and I look forward to it everytime. This particular Monday, we were originally planning to go to Vivavity Restaurant on Alexandra Road.  That seems to be one […]

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 […]

Costco Food Court

Went to lunch with a coworker a few weeks ago.  Interestingly enough, it was the same one blogged by fellow blogger Sherman! I’ve always liked getting the hot dogs at Costco.  In the Richmond location, that’s the best deal they have.  They also have pizza, some chicken roll thing, fries and poutine, Montreal Beef Sandwich, […]

Fruit Zone 果汁特區

Update Dec 20, 2011: This restaurant is now closed. Are you having an exceptional good day? Is your mood at its highest? Or you just plain have nothing else to do? Well I have somewhere for you to bring it down! This is my first actual post focusing on Customer Service.  Now as bad as […]

Pho 99 Vietnamese Noodle House – Richmond

Again this was another post I’ve put off posting for a while for no particular reason. My mom received a VIP card for this place, resulting in 10% discount on our meals.  So Boyfriend and I decided to try this place out. Apparently Pho 99 already has 2 other locations in BC, both of them […]

Halong Bay Vietnamese Restaurant

Update Jun 10, 2009: This restaurant has since closed down I’ve had this stashed in my pictures folder for the longest time.  I’ve just never came around to blogging them (as you might be able to tell from the last picture, the business card was taken with a Christmas Card backdrop!!!) This is a nice […]

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 […]

Tony’s Pea Patch Cafe

Update Feb 15, 2014: This restaurant has since shut down. For breakfast one day while visiting my aunt and uncle in the States they took us to a new cafe.  Tony’s Pea Patch Cafe is family owned, and they serve what I call comfort food – big portions, greasy, filling, yummy. They serve breakfast till […]
