Dee introduced me to the only Northern-style Vietnamese pho restaurant in Vancouver, and that’s Lam Hoa Quan. He finally took me there and really was different. The interior was nothing fancy obviously, but it was orderly and actually quite spacious to me. The server was a young, made-up lady that spoke perfect English. So there […]
And so again, Wendy and I head out to Vancouver to visit more Olympic sights and see if there were any more Migas, Quatchi, MukMuk items for sale. On our way there, we wanted to visit Copa Restaurant since we’ve heard good stuff about it. Ironically, it’s because of the Olympics that parking on Cambie […]
Richmond Public Market is probably one of the worst managed “shopping centres” in the Lower Mainland. It kinda reminds me of a wet market in Hong Kong where you’re sure that’s rodents and other things scurrying right under your feet. The lower level tenants probably has it the worst. They had to put up tarp […]
Wendy and I have been crazing Taiwanese food for some time. We really wanted to go back to Well Tea for their Beef Noodle and hot pots! Recently, Wendy tried the Hot Pot seafood with Soy Milk from Pearl Castle but she reported that it was rather bland. We thought that perhaps Well Tea can […]
After Ellie shut down, Boyfriend and I have been trying to look for a new yummy laksa restaurant. We did end up finding a suitable version at Cafe D’Lite. But one day on our way to Pho Thai Hoa, I caught a glimpse of a restaurant called Coco Hut. I got really excited as I […]
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 […]
Update Jan 28, 2011: This restaurant is now closed. As I said before the next dish I wanted to try at Sensus Bistro was the Pork Cartilage Ramen. I finally got the chance to try it. This was $7.95 and it’s quite a large portion size. The soup looks flavorful and it was, it didn’t […]
Again Boyfriend and I may be late to the bandwagon but we finally visited Menya one day for lunch/brunch. But boy-oh-boy I never expected traffic to be so congested on a Tuesday noon hour on Broadway. Parking was hard to find! We made it anyways, and was glad that there were plenty of seats available. […]
Wendy likes to check out the Klip magazine where they feature local restaurants and other interesting items. The front cover to a recent issue had Gyo-O as one of the featured places (it sure pays to be on the front cover)! Gyo-O is at a good location inside the usually busy Continental Centre in Richmond. […]
Despite the horrible parking conditions at Crystal Mall, it is still one of my favorite places to go for lunch when I’m at work. It’s a good thing we always have lunch early so the conditions aren’t TOO too bad. There’s so many options here that I find it hard to choose a place. Finally […]
