Kyung Bok Palace 景福宮

Update: This restaurant has closed. Kyung Bok Palace of Lansdowne Mall in Richmond had been offering a “5 items for $19.95” menu for quite some time now. I’ve always been meaning to go try it. Finally I went with Fannypack to go try it out for lunch. This menu is offered until 4pm each day. […]

Vivacity 名都

Update: This restaurant has closed. SO like I said before, Vivacity Restaurant is my mom’s favorite dim sum place. This one Tuesday we were fortunate enough to be able to get a parking space in that hellhole parkade of theirs. Normally, it shouldn’t be that bad (but honestly, it’s still really bad) cuz there’s supposed to […]

BK Mushroom Swiss Steakhouse Burger

Originally since it was Wednesday, I wanted to take advantage of Whopper Wednesday and get a Whopper. However, as I pulled near the drive-thru window, the big huge advertisement for the BK Mushroom & Swiss Steakhouse Burger caught my eye and it was too enticing to pass up. So I gave up the $1.49 Whopper […]

Excellent Tofu & Snack 好好豆品

Wendy and I have been wanting to come to this place for a while.  We have been at Excellent Tofu a couple of times in the past and it was quite good.  After we had dinner, we rushed to Excellent Tofu at Central Square to try to get there before 9pm, only to find that […]

Berry Good Cafe

“Berry Good…it was…Very Good!” – Boyfriend That was how he suggested I start this post.  Anyways, feeling like dessert one night, I looked around Urbanspoon and Dinehere to see what dessert places are located in Richmond.  Berry Good got pretty positive reviews from most everyone that reviewed. So naturally I decided that Boyfriend would accompany […]

No.1 Shanghai Cuisine 滬上

Update Nov 28, 2013: This restaurant is now closed. There are many types of Chinese cuisine. Tonight, we explored another venue for Shanghain-nese food in the great plains of Richmond. This place calls itself “Number One Shanghai Cuisine”. I don’t know about you guys, but I sure want to find out if in fact they […]

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 […]

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 […]
