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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

Shang Noodle House 尚麵館

I would never have thought to go to this place if it wasn’t for my mom.  She has become a ‘patron’ of the nearby establishment known as “Starlight Casino”.  Shang Noodle House 尚麵館 is a very convenient location for the casino-goers because it’s a 2-minute walk from the casino’s front doors.   Parking was simple, just […]

Well Tea Sukiyaki Hotpot

Well Tea 茶井

Well Tea is one of our favorite Bubble Tea restaurants.  It’s either that or Pearl Castle.  Usually Well Tea wins because there’s a greater chance of being seated there. I really enjoy the mini hotpots at these restaurants.  I usually go for the Milk hotpot but this time I tried something different. This is the […]

HKYK Restaurant 香港英記 Alaskan King Crab

Update Feb 15, 2014: This restaurant has since shut down. On this very cold, rainy, windy night, there were 6 that braved through it all, in order to delight themselves with the great taste of the Alaskan King Crab! Wendy and her family had been planning this for about a week now.  Eating Alaskan King […]

Bubble Fruity 桂花林

I’m always on the lookout for a good Chinese-style dessert place. Boyfriend’s mom told me one day about a new place that opened up near the public market that does just that. Chinese-style desserts are hard to find here. Most of the time the only encounter you have is at a Chinese restaurant where they […]

Si Chuan First Restaurant 天府風私房菜

Update Oct 3, 2009: This restaurant has since shut down. This is a small, not particularly noticeable Sze Chuan (Si Chuan) restaurant nestled in a little alcove on Buswell Street.  If you know where Happy Date is, you can cross from Happy Date to the back and you’ll see it. This is a gem of […]

ellie Tropical Cuisine 耶里流行餐坊

Update May 18, 2009: This restaurant has since closed down 😥 OMG.  I’ve found the BEST LAKSA EVER (on this side of the world anyways…). I’ve always wanted to go to Ellie to try their paper hotpot.  However now that I’m here, I’ve realized that they’ve increased their pricing and now I find it a […]

Sweety Pink 100% Healthy Dessert 百份百甜品

Update: This restaurant has closed. This is a small HK-style dessert shop located on Westminster Highway where Kingspark restaurant is.  I like this place because they have a few unusual yummy desserts, one such I am about to show you. The interior is quite small.  There’s about 10 tables in total.  It’s pretty brightly lit […]
