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 […]
Update: This restaurant has closed. For our monthly gossip session, Fannypack and I visited The Ascot with a Groupon in hand. As we approached the restaurant we were impressed by the swanky hipster-looking storefront. However it did look out of place for its location, as it’s near Richards and W. Pender. Stepping in the hipster-factor […]
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… I LOVE PHO!!!! So when I found a good pho place close to home, I was ecstatic. I noticed that a good pho broth is hard to find nowadays…most places are either not concentrated enough or it’s much too sweet. Maxima seems to have a good […]
Wendy was extremely excited to receive an invitation for us to attend an exclusive tasting event for Canada’s entry into the Bocuse d’Or. For those who haven’t heard of it this biannual competition is an international event held in Lyon, France and will take place on January 29th and 30th this year. It’s one of […]
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 […]
My craving for a good galbi-tang has resurfaced recently…and I’ve been trying to find restaurants locally that have it. Somehow I came across the lunch menu at Potter’s Garden on Urbanspoon and they do have it at a decent price (around $8) so I made a date with Hitman to go check it out. Only […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 is now closed. It’s been a while huh. Not gonna lie it’s been a busy busy summer for sure. Hopefully I’ll get back to the groove of blogging again~ Here goes! My good good friend LockerBud and I were trying to decide on a place for dinner. At first we were going […]
