This is Part 5 of our Victoria Food Adventures! Check out the rest here! I always try to scope out a buck-a-shuck Happy Hour menu when we travel. For our Victoria trip I found Nautical Nellies Steak & Seafood House which is right by the water. Their Happy Hour menu is from 3pm-5:30pm everyday! Nautical Nellies has […]
This is Part 8 of our New York Food Adventures! Check out the rest here! On a walk back from a morning out with the boys, AngryRussian noticed that this place called Seamore’s has buck-a-shuck oyster happy hour, so being the darling that he is, told me about it even though he really dislikes oysters. and off […]
This is Part 2 of our New York Food Adventures! Check out the rest here! I had been looking up Happy Hour places for $1 oysters in New York. The place that I found was in Chelsea Market and they only had Happy Hour at the bar and each time (twice) we tried to go, […]
Chewies Steam & Oyster Bar is a Southern-style cuisine restaurant known for their oysters, but that’s not the reason for my visit. I had a craving for Chicken and Waffles so having remembered that Chewies offer it on their menu, I took a trip down to their Coal Harbour location for lunch. This location had large windows all along the […]
For my birthday, AngryRussian took me to Miku for dinner. As it was the holiday season, Miku had a special holiday menu of six courses ($125). The appetizer course had 7 small items itself!! We both decided to do the special set menu, and we noticed that a lot of patrons that night did the same […]
We spent the holidays over on Vancouver Island this year. There didn’t seem to be too many fine dining choices in the Comox Valley area, but it was recommended we go to Locals Restaurant in Courtenay, so for my official birthday dinner celebration with Hitman that’s where we went. They’re known for sourcing their food locally […]
A mutual friend of Fannypack’s and mine was visiting from out of town and Fannypack had the task of choosing a place for dinner. She then of course passed it on to me even though lately she’s been eating out way more often than I =P. Upon googling I came up with Merchant’s Oyster Bar […]
Update: This restaurant has closed. Groupon had a tasting menu deal for Raincity Grill, a place I had yet to visit, where 2 can dine for $95. Wendy had taken her mother out for a previous Groupon tasting menu at Raincity and really enjoyed the meal, and since my mom was coming to visit I […]
I’ve been wanting to try Maenam for a while now since I’m a big fan of all things Thai and was curious about trying Thai food with a gourmet twist, which is exactly what Maenam offers. The first thing I noticed was the warm, inviting atmosphere, made apparent through excellent use of light and colour. […]
Fannypack recently informed me of this little place in Chinatown that has Buck-a-Shuck happy hour…and get this…it REALLY is a buck for a shuck!!! Not $1.75, not $1.50, just $1!!! When I heard of this, I quickly scurried Hitman to the magical Oyster eXpress with me. This corner restaurant has a very rustic log house interior…the birch color […]
