Dessert Dynasty

Lately I’ve been going to Metrotown Centre to wait for Boyfriend to get off work.  As he gets off half an hour after me, we have been carpooling and it’s been great. What else is great is that most of those days I’ve been having Bubble Tea.  Oh, wait…did I say that’s a good thing?? […]

Barefoot Kitchen

Update: This restaurant is now closed. Pretty Sis read a review of Barefoot Kitchen in the Georgia Straight a while ago and had asked me to go with her. I happily obliged, as it was from the same people of Ichiro Japanese Restaurant, previously blogged about here and here. As forewarned by a coworker, if […]

Chiffon Again

Update: This restaurant is now closed. The gang and I had an outing to do a photoshoot last weekend.  It was quite sunny that day so by the end of it we were exhausted, hungry, and hot.  M mentioned during the shoot that she would love to have a cup of bubble tea in her […]

Boston Steakhouse 波士頓扒房

Update Sep 13, 2010: This restaurant is now closed. In the sea of Asian restaurants in Richmond, it may be difficult to find one to return to on a regular basis.  My mom and her friends love to try every HK style cafe in the city as they pop up one by one.  The best […]

Ichiro Japanese Restaurant w/ Friends

This dinner was planned for about a month.  A few weeks ago I saw the comment in my previous Ichiro Japanese Restaurant review and saw that the commenter did not have a good experience here.  That worried me as I had highly recommended it to my coworkers.  It was also tediously planned so I really […]

Soul Robata & Izakaya 魂

Update: This restaurant is now closed. Fannypack and I met up with the gang on Sunday for dinner to catch up.  W chose the place and she chose Soul Robata & Izakaya on Alexandra Road.  As it was a Sunday I was weary of parking there, so I got Boyfriend to drop me off.  That […]

New Seoul Restaurant

As much as I like the Korean restaurants here in the Lower Mainland, I’ve always found that in Washington where my aunt lives, there is better Korean (and Vietnamese) food.  (Chinese food is a different story…) New Seoul Restaurant is a Korean restaurant my aunt’s family frequent.  They had taken us there numerous times also, […]

Kim Ga Nae 金家內

Update Feb 15, 2014: This restaurant is now closed. This is one of the newer Korean BBQ restaurants in Richmond.  It is located at Browngate Road diagonally across from Aberdeen Centre. They boast 27 items on their AYCE BBQ menu, which is $19.95 at dinner time.  However, as you can see, two items are crossed […]

Dai Jang Kum 大長今

This has been Boyfriend’s and my favorite Korean restaurant for the longest time.  Even though they advertise BBQ on their exterior, I frequent them for their normal non-BBQ foods. They use to be Wang Gal Bee and I loved them then.  About a year ago they changed name (and hands?) and I was terrified that […]

ellie Tropical Cuisine 耶里流行餐坊

Update May 18, 2009: This restaurant has since closed down 😥 OMG.  I’ve found the BEST LAKSA EVER (on this side of the world anyways…). I’ve always wanted to go to Ellie to try their paper hotpot.  However now that I’m here, I’ve realized that they’ve increased their pricing and now I find it a […]
