Nine Dishes, 960 Kingsway, Vancouver, BC

December 2, 2010 – 06:00

Where? Nine Dishes at 960 Kingsway, Vancouver, BC. View Larger Map Who? With Condiments, VDL‘s tastiest dodgeball team. Why? Good cheap Beijing/Sichuan food, cheap $2 beer. I could go into a lot about the owner of this restaurant, If, and the type of relaxed approach he takes to running his restaurant, but you could read read more »

Delicious Cuisine (一品怪廚), Richmond, BC

November 15, 2010 – 16:31

I wish I could blog everyday, or even every other day like many other bloggers out there, but life just seems to take precedence over sitting down and humming and hawing over what to type. Perhaps the problem is I want to include too much information in each post. I generally like to sit down, read more »

Wonton King Chinese Restaurant

September 7, 2010 – 12:00

Wonton King has been open on Marine Drive for as long as I can remember. That’s a pretty damned long time.. considering I’ve been living in this area for more than 15 years now! I probably have gone when I was younger, but not enough that I would remember. Now that I’m older, I never read more »

Dim Sum Location Vancouver

Floata Seafood

June 18, 2010 – 20:57

To me, Float is the definition of dimsum in Chinatown. Come early enough and you can catch their early bird special where everything is $2.00 (I think) View Larger Map Although it’s seen better days and is not as grand and busy as it used to be, Float is still well kept as it was read more »

Sensus Bistro

Honestly, there is no shortage of HK Style Cafe‘s in Metro Vancouver. I don’t think I’ve heard or seen all of them, and it’s even more unlikely that I will eat at all of them either. One can try though right? Sounds like a formidable challenge.. Ed, do you want to try? The windows are read more »

Happy Family Restaurant

May 17, 2010 – 22:33

Kevin: Happy Family. Does that not just sound like the most ridiculous name for a restaurant? It’s obviously a Chinese restaurant with guaranteed funny Engrish on their menu. After another night of dodgeball we were driving along Kingsway looking for a place to eat. This is just after 10pm, so there should be plenty of read more »

Nancy’s Wonton House

May 9, 2010 – 01:44

We had just finished watching Game 5 vs LA Kings in Round 1 and were hungry. Kevin and Allison were coming FROM the game (lucky sob’s…grumble) so we picked somewhere close that was still open late, which happened to be Nancy’s. Chow fan. Fried rice. I swear, Jeff could be Ben‘s son. Without fail, he read more »

King Crab @ Empire Seafood Restaurant

April 12, 2010 – 13:38

After spending two months in Whistler for work, eating gourmet cafeteria food (aka institution food, or mass produced bland and unimaginative food), my tastebuds basically went into hibernation. Aside from the couple good meals I had up there at Sushi Village, The Keg and the occasional pub like Merlin’s or Crystal Lounge, I found myself read more »

Location Richmond Shanghai

No. 1 Shanghai Cuisine (No. 3 Road, Richmond)

January 22, 2010 – 01:21

Wooooo this is nearly a month old, Dec 29th was the day I visited No.1 Shanghai Cuisine because we went for Kevin’s 21st birthday! The interior is not a typical Chinese restaurant setup. There are booth seats and strange decorations…most likely remnants of the lounge that used to reside here. Like true Chinese business owners, read more »

Curry King Cafe (Kingsway)

December 19, 2009 – 22:21

Following a dodgeball tournament, a couple of us were thinking of places to eat. I was really craving curry lamb, but didn’t want to drive to Richmond for various reasons. Since it was still somewhat early, being 10pm~, I knew that Curry King Cafe on Kingsway in Burnaby would still be open. Now, with a read more »
