Update: This restaurant has closed. Boyfriend and I had originally planned on going to Motomachi for ramen Wednesday night. However, once we got there, we found out that it was closed on said day. We were a bit disappointed, but at the same time I was excited because it finally gave us a chance to […]
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 […]
Update: This restaurant is now part of Nan-Chu Restaurant. FIRST POST! I had to let that out! I have been wanting to post for a while, to finally take the jump into the world of blogging. Let’s get right down to business. After moping around and thinking of where to eat for dinner, we have […]
Update Sep 13, 2010: Now closed but part of the restaurant Pink Swirl, in the same mall. Update: Pink Swirl now closed too 🙁 One of our favorite take-out sushi places is Sushi World, located in Empire Centre on No. 3 Road in Richmond. This place is owned by Chinese. Now, normally I would stay […]
Motomachi Shokudo is apparently opened by the same ramen chef that owns/opened Kintaro Ramen. This new restaurant is supposed to be the healthier alternative to the fatty pork fat based Kintaro Ramen. Here the chef uses only organic ingredients and the soup base is made from organic chicken rather than pork fat. As you can […]
I asked the Boyfriend to get me some of these on his layover at Narita Airport in Japan. I had these about 7 years ago when I went to Japan. I’ve always liked rice cake consistency Japanese sweets so I’ve longed for these ever since that time. Obviously, I haven’t been to Japan for a […]
Update: This restaurant is now closed. We were on a quest to find the next great ramen place. From reading blogs online I decided on two places: Shogun the Sapporo Ramen and Noodle Express, both for cheap and good ramen. First stop was Shogun. However, once we’ve arrived, it turns out this place closes at […]
Kingsway Sushi has recently become my favorite place for All-you-can-eat (AYCE) japanese (albeit chinese-made) food. They have quality fresh sashimi and a decent selection of items in their Deluxe Dinner menu. It was a Saturday so the place was packed. Good thing we made reservations, but still we waited for about 15 minutes. Those without […]
We had heard of Ichiro Japanese restaurant from our friend, who highly recommended it. It took us a few hurdles to finally be able to visit it. The first time, we tried on a Monday. We arrived to realize that it’s closed on Mondays. The next time, intelligent us decided to go on a Saturday. […]
Update Dec 10, 2010: This restaurant is now closed. Feeling adventurous again, we visited this japanese fusion restaurant hidden in the corner Olympia Centre on Alexandra Road in Richmond (the mall with Mongolie Grill). It’s BonQuLa and we’re happy we found this gem as it is a nice cozy restaurant owned and chefed (is that […]
