Mazazu Crepe

Last Friday happened to be the grand opening of two new eateries at Aberdeen Centre: Mazazu Crepe and Chef Hung Taiwanese Beef Noodle.  We didn’t mean to go to either place but while having dinner at the food court (we had our favorite Laksa!).  I saw the lineup at Mazazu Crepe and originally I wasn’t […]

Ho Yuen Restaurant

Update: This restaurant is now closed. Okay, you are probably thinking: “WHY ARE YOU GOING HERE?”  Aren’t the commercials of the owner dude on Fairchild Vision enough?  Isn’t this guy’s face and voice overly irritating to anyone that knows him?  Well, yeah.  But we could not resist the urge to see what he has done […]

Dragon Ball Tea House 龍珠茶園

After our visit to Beefy Beef Noodle House, we decided to rush over to the bubble tea house named Dragon Ball (Z!!!!)  Here’s a nice pic of the place and our shadows during a late fall day in Vancouver.  What surprised me most was that the parking was quite easy (in the side alley) – […]

Pearl Castle Richmond Centre Snacks

I believe Pearl Castle to be one of the most major brands in offerings Taiwanese Foods / Pearl Drinks in the GVRD.  They went from a single unit in Continental Centre and expanded next door to accommodate their traffic.  Now, they have expanded inside Richmond to its busiest mall:  Richmond Centre.  It is located right […]

Beefy Beef Noodle & Bubble Tea House

Update: This restaurant has closed. We usually do tend to bypass Vancouver itself and straight for downtown for meals.  However, we infrequently step foot inside Vancouver to enjoy its restaurants.  In an effort to try as many Taiwanese beef noodle places as possible, we pulled ourselves together, dusted ourselves off and ventured in Vancouver. This […]

Let’s Go For Dinner: Coast Restaurant

It was another Let’s Go For Dinner event for us.  We wanted to go to Downtown again and so we picked a restaurant that was within walking distance from the Canada Line station/Pacific Centre.  This time we chose Coast Restaurant. We made reservations for 5:45pm so it wasn’t that busy as it was quite early […]

Nordstrom’s ebar (Espresso Bar)

Whenever Boyfriend and I go to Lynnwood, if we happen to go to Alderwood Mall where there’s a Nordstrom, I have to get something from their ebar. It’s much like Starbucks/Blenz/Second Cup.  The prices are similar, even the layout is similar.  My favorite drink here is their Italian Soda which comes with cream and whipped […]

Mallard Ice Cream

Wendy and I spent another day in the Evergreen State looking for pre-Black Friday sales.  It was a fun filled day with good food and plenty of shopping gifts for ourselves.  To wrap it all up, we took the exit on 253 to give Mallard a try.  Wendy actually suggested it twice before but we […]

Sushi Hachi 鮨八 Richmond

Sushi Hachi is one of those local gems that has received lots of rave reviews due to their homely atmosphere, and simple, comfort food that is familiar to Japanese and non-Japanese alike. They have the staples of Japanese cuisine that’s known and loved all over, like California Rolls, Cones, Tempura, and the more adventurous, authentically […]
