There are a lot of little eateries in the States that get famous by word-of-mouth. Paseo Caribbean Restaurant is definitely one of them. Mom and I were told by Cousin D to visit this place, and to visit it early. So the next morning, Aunt Aggy, Uncle Walken, Mom and I woke up (relatively) early […]
A friend of mine has been pointing out lately the lack of Filipino food on our site, so this one’s for you pandeSally. Fliptop Filipino Fusion food truck (Phew! Try saying that five times fast. Or just once for that matter!) came onto our radar a month or so ago, but since they tend to […]
Ever find yourself daydreaming of your next vacation while you’re at work? Wish you could magically transport yourself out of that cramped cubicle and escape to some exotic destination for some much-needed R & R? What if I said you could indulge your fantasy on your next lunch break? If you work downtown, Mangal Kiss […]
During the month of July I went to Prince George to visit Pretty Sis. She’s been there for about a year and this is the first time I’ve been there. What the HELL is she doing in PG you ask? Well, TedBear stole her away that’s why. DAMN YOU TEDBEAR! Just kidding. TedBear’s awesome. He […]
A & W has been slowly revamping their menu at certain locations with slightly more “upscale” fast food offerings like yam fries and veggie burgers as well as adding actual dishware for dine-in to compliment their traditional frosted glass mugs. Their latest additions are various grilled cheese sandwiches and poutines which I set out to […]
If you’ve been by the new Richmond Center food court, you’ve probably been accosted by the hawkers at Bourbon Street Grill. Apparently it’s a franchise, and Coquitlam Center got theirs first, but for Wendy and I it was a new experience and based on their friendly staff and abundant samples we picked it as the […]
So…now comes the time of the main attraction…the whole purpose of our trip to South Korea. Prior to the trip we had researched just where would be a good place to have this sannakji: fresh raw octopus, the tentacles of which are served still squirming on the plate. It turns out, a lot of restaurants […]
On the hunt for bones to make pho with and our usual location was all out, so we decided to check Al-Salam Halal Meat. I phoned ahead (twice) to confirm price and stock and both times was greeted by a very friendly sounding man who called me “Brother” after every sentence. I could hear some […]
We actually had my birthday dinner the day before my birthday, since Dark Table wasn’t open the day of. So the day of, we went out for a less planned out but no less extravagant dinner. But it didn’t start out that way… At first, Hitman wanted to take me to the rice cake cafe […]
Hitman won a pretty fab prize pack from work (some Safety thing lol) and one of the prizes was a $50 gift card for any restaurant in the Cara network, namely Swiss Chalet, Milestone’s, Montana’s, Kelsey’s, Harvey’s, etc. He originally wanted to go to Milestones, but the closest one is not close at all…there’s downtown, […]
