Fondway Cafe is a cute and spacious cafe that has opened up along the strip behind Metrotown mall. There’s a bunch of new condos being built there which I guess makes it a good location. It is also close to me so I have no complaints and made it a good choice for a long […]
I remember wanting to visit Coffee Monster for a while now but it had fallen off my radar, but feeling like dessert one night, I googled what’s in the area and Coffee Monster popped up. So AngryRussian and I took a walk there to see what they had to offer at 10:00pm on a Friday […]
The latest concoction from DAVIDsTEA has got to be the ultimate in the fusion of Chinese and Western drink culture. Coffee Pu’erh combines the traditional taste of Chinese pu’erh tea with the signature drink of the west by the addition of coffee beans. I had a sniff of it in store and the notes of […]
Bump N Grind Cafe had a second baby and I was invited to the baby shower! It was actually a grand opening media event for their brand new South Granville location and I was extended an invite to try their goodies and have a one-night only signature drink. This is the second location for husband and […]
I’ve heard about JJ Bean from GRock a while ago, and I didn’t really know what the fuss was. More googling however got me intrigued about their mocha, as it seems like they make the best one in town. My first visit was to the Main Street location, I didn’t try their mocha, as I […]

Update: This restaurant is closed. VANEATS.ca has once again put together a pretty nifty package deal for an establishment we’ve been meaning to try with their ManCakes Madness deal for ManCakes Bakery on Robson. This time it will cost you $9.95 for 6 mini cupcakes and 2 hot drinks. You can also upgrade and double […]
I’ve heard a lot about Beaucoup Bakery & Cafe, especially in magazines. However it wasn’t until recently when GRock’s friend started working there as a baker that I’ve succumbed to lots more praises and recommendations from GRock. The final nail in the coffin was when GRock showed me a picture of this magical looking poached […]
Honestly, while in Japan, I never went into a meal or ate anything because I was hungry. It was more because I HAD to eat it because I’m IN FREAKIN’ JAPAN. It may be a while before I come back so I needed to eat everything I wanted to eat. Which will explain the insane […]
