Yogurt Escape @ Coronado Island, San Diego

We took a bus from the ferry station to the hotel earlier (they’re at different ends of the island) and while on the bus, M saw a frozen yogurt shop that her manager has mentioned to her. M made a note for us to visit it on our way back. So after visiting the Hotel […]

Tuttimelon Revisited

Update Feb 4, 2011: This restaurant is now closed. After reading some of the comments left on our initial post on Tuttimelon, we decided to go back unannounced to see how service is for “regular” folks :wink:. So I think the main concern was that the Original yogurt was icy and not smooth enough.  Also […]

Tuttimelon Premium Frozen Yogurt

Update Feb 4, 2011: This restaurant is now closed. There’s a new froyo kid in town!!  And it goes by the name of Tuttimelon! It seems like the frozen yogurt craze down South has gained momentum here in the Lower Mainland.  The newest addition is located on Alexandra Road a couple doors from Kam Do. […]

Dot Dessert

Update: This restaurant is now closed. I learned about Dot Dessert while searching for a Japanese-style dessert place in Vancouver.  I was quite happy to know about it, since I really enjoy the parfaits at Chicco and any new places offering the same thing is always welcome.  It was especially exciting since it’s not located […]

Calhoun’s Bakery Cafe

Continuing with the blueberry theme, on the same night we had dinner at Swiss Chalet, I urbanspooned to see what dessert places were close by.  Calhoun’s Bakery Cafe was a few blocks down so I decided on there. It was a bit of a wet and drippy evening that day.  However it was a short […]

Yogu-San @ Bellis Fair

On our day of shopping in the States, we happened across a new frozen yogurt place at Bellis Fair.  I thought it’ll be good, since this was the land of the Pinkberrys and the Red Mangos. Yogu-san‘s decor is very, very minimalistic.  Too minimalistic in my opinion.  Their mascot is hella cute though! Oh well, […]

Barefoot Kitchen

Update: This restaurant is now closed. Pretty Sis read a review of Barefoot Kitchen in the Georgia Straight a while ago and had asked me to go with her. I happily obliged, as it was from the same people of Ichiro Japanese Restaurant, previously blogged about here and here. As forewarned by a coworker, if […]

Marble Slab Again

OH YEAH!  Summer is nothing but an excuse for….wait for it…. ICE CREAM!  Nothing gets me going like a 2-for-1, BUY 1 GET 1 coupon!  Needless to say, Wendy and I were pretty excited to head to Marble Slab once again.  We were really headed for Walmart, but Marble Slab was definite on our minds […]

Timothy’s Frozen Yogurt

After the lobster sashimi dinner we were ready for MORE ice cream.  GRock has heard about Timothy’s Frozen Yogurt and I was excited to take them there. I’ve been to this place ever since I was a kid.  I remember when I was only allowed to get the Kid’s size to when I was finally […]

Steveston Seafood House

Finally blogging this restaurant.  As you can kind of see, there’s snow on the ground.  This is from that deep-freeze period of Dec-Jan earlier this year. It wasn’t that the restaurant wasn’t good and I didn’t want to recommend it.  On the contrary, Steveston Seafood House was excellent.  I just felt that I didn’t take […]
