Update: This restaurant is closed. For the month of August, The Urban Tea Merchant is offering a petite afternoon tea service for $20 per person. Now afternoon teas are never enough food for a guy so I made Fannypack go experience this with me. The regular price for this service is usually $28. Now I’m […]
Some friends headed out to celebrate a couple of birthdays on Saturday and decided to have the dinner and pre-drinks at Lickerish Lounge on Davie St. Neither of us has been here but we have heard of it; the paintings of major urban music figures on the walls were what came to mind immediately. We […]
Update: This restaurant has closed. Groupon had a tasting menu deal for Raincity Grill, a place I had yet to visit, where 2 can dine for $95. Wendy had taken her mother out for a previous Groupon tasting menu at Raincity and really enjoyed the meal, and since my mom was coming to visit I […]
We were fortunate to come across a pretty good deal on LivingSocial for our hotel stay for this Victoria trip. Hitman and I got a pretty nice room at the Executive House Hotel in downtown Victoria. It was within walking distance to pretty much everything (unless you’re in heels like I was…then it was excruciating […]
Yep. Hitman’s really done it this time. He’s dug himself into a massive hole and frankly, I don’t think he’s gonna be able to get out of it. How could you be so careless??? Did you think of the consequences??? Apparently not! Geez you’ve done such a tremendous job on our first anniversary how are […]
***Update: Please see end of post for SocialShopper’s reply*** Update: White Tower Robson and r. tl are both now (not at all surprisingly) closed. We had quite an interesting Valentine’s celebration last weekend, with a few mishaps along the way…so to bring you guys the juicy (no, not that juicy) details we decided to collaborate on […]
Update: This restaurant has closed. Wendy and I had a WagJag deal for Eh! Restaurant so we decided to head down to the Alberni & Thurlow location to check it out. Prices seemed quite reasonable for this area with many entrees on the rather sparse menu under $10 before the discount. The decor was kind […]
Update: This restaurant has moved location. When SheShe saw my Facebook album of the foods I ate in Japan, she was especially intrigued by the waffles over there. So apparently she feverishly googled for a local source of Japanese-style waffle. Miura Waffle Milk Bar was what she found. It’s located near Yaletown but I thought […]
Oh Guu~~ I always have such a good time at your place! What’s your secret? For this particular visit, I’m sure the culprit must be the pitcher of Aloe Vera Mojito ($16.5) shared among two girls. Yep. That must be it. This was refreshing. I liked chewing on the mint leaves but there really aren’t […]
Update: This restaurant is now called Bellaggio Laziza Restaurant. I was fortunate enough to be among some fellow bloggers invited to a tasting event held by a new-ish Mediterranean restaurant on Davie – Laziza. Just to give a bit of background on the restaurant, according to the press release, the menu is inspired by the […]
