We were on the block of Hastings which El Pulgarcito inhabits because we were trying to get into Bo Laksa King for a late lunch, another authentic foreign food experience that we reviewed. You can read our review of Bo Laksa here. Alas, that day we arrived during Bo Laksa’s mid-afternoon closing period in the […]
Update: This restaurant has closed. For our last meal in Victoria we went to another rather odd location, Hernande’z Cocina, for Central American food. This is apparently as close as you’ll get to a traditional Salvadorean cocina here in BC, with two sides of a mall hallway doubling for a rustic village market stall. Well, […]
Update: This restaurant has closed. Armed with a WagJag voucher, Hitman and I hit up Magda’s Restaurant on Fraser as Hitman was very interested in trying authentic Latin/Venezuelan food and looking up reviews, that seems to be the case here. Magda’s certainly has a very warm family restaurant feel to it. The servers were very […]
Anyone else went to the Surrey Fusion Fest over the summer? It was held over the weekend of July 16-17 and it’s basically a mini world cuisine/cultural event that included many food stalls and cultural presentations such as Korean drumming, belly-dancing, etc. The big-ticket event was the 9pm show Sunday night featuring Jay Sean. Bedouin […]
I think the main reason why L, J and I went to Las Margaritas this day really was to have their margaritas. L had been raving about them all the time so finally we decided on a day to go. I do like Mexican food. After that time at Bandidas, I liked it even more. […]
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 […]
Update: This restaurant is now closed. Wendy and I really enjoy coming to Washington States many times a year. One is to get away from the city, and more importantly, we love the deals that can be found at the malls and outlets! We also get to try things that are not available back home […]
Update Apr 10, 2011: This restaurant is now closed. The first time I had authentic Chilean empanadas was earlier this year when I went on a trip to South America. They sold these things on street-side markets and stalls. My first one however was bought from a convenience store there, instead of off the street. […]
I think Taco Luis at the food court at Lansdowne Mall is pretty famous, particularily to the students at Kwantlen College (it even has a fan page on Facebook). It’s with good reason, it has big portions and small prices. Boyfriend frequented the place during his days at Kwantlen. He must’ve frequent it very very […]
Our first dinner during our US trip was at Taco Bell. This specific location is the one located near Seattle Premium Outlet at exit 202. We’ve always liked Taco Bell. They have great tasting, big and cheap combos. Currently they offer these fruit & creme slushie drinks called Fruitista Freeze. There are 3 flavors: Triple […]
