It was lunch with Mom again. This week we did it on a Sunday. At first I was obviously skeptical about venturing to the “Golden Village” during the weekends, but since our destination is a little bit away from the “Bermuda Triangle” of Aberdeen, Parker Place, and Yaohan, I thought we’ll be safe. Sushi House […]
Update Jan 3, 2014: This Robson St location is now closed. It’s a bit late but after all this time, we’ve finally got on the Benkei-wagon and visited the renowned Benkei Ramen. It was Boyfriend’s birthday and he didn’t want anything fancy. He actually really really wanted to have ramen! All the better for my […]
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 […]
A favorite Japanese restaurant of Boyfriend and mine is The Clubhouse Restaurant. We been going since the early days of our relationship. Unfortunately we don’t get to go often since it is just so out of the way. We also found that the place seems to have irregular hours…we wanted to go once on a […]
Update Sep 21, 2009: This restaurant has since shut down. Nobusan is a recently opened restaurant located on what Wendy and I call “Road of Hell”, aka. Richmond’s No.3 Rd. The Canada Line construction has made driving almost intolerable. If you are to get to this restaurant, you must be heading south to get into […]

We were a bit disappointed, but at the same time I was excited because it finally gave us a chance to […]
Update Sep 13, 2010: Now closed but part of the restaurant Pink Swirl, in the same mall. Update: Pink Swirl now closed too 🙁 One of our favorite take-out sushi places is Sushi World, located in Empire Centre on No. 3 Road in Richmond. This place is owned by Chinese. Now, normally I would stay […]
We had heard of Ichiro Japanese restaurant from our friend, who highly recommended it. It took us a few hurdles to finally be able to visit it. The first time, we tried on a Monday. We arrived to realize that it’s closed on Mondays. The next time, intelligent us decided to go on a Saturday. […]
Update Dec 10, 2010: This restaurant is now closed. Feeling adventurous again, we visited this japanese fusion restaurant hidden in the corner Olympia Centre on Alexandra Road in Richmond (the mall with Mongolie Grill). It’s BonQuLa and we’re happy we found this gem as it is a nice cozy restaurant owned and chefed (is that […]
