Pearl Hot Pot 珍珠小火鍋 – Shabu Shabu in Burnaby

January 31, 2012 – 00:00

A post from Eva reminded me that this little hot pot restaurant out in Burnaby was still alive and kicking. I can say with great confidence that I know this place is more than 10 years old, since I used to have piano lessons in the area when I was still in elementary school. Time read more »

Sushi Town (North Burnaby)

December 25, 2011 – 13:45

I’m never in this part of Burnaby, simply because it’s so far, but since we were a block away running the Season 12 VDL Skills Clinic, Jeff chose Sushi Town as our meal after. I suggested Burgers Etc. BBQ House, but I guess that’ll have to wait for another time. We actually had come from read more »

G-Be Izakaya Re-Opening

July 19, 2011 – 00:00

Thanks to ecchi on REVscene, I made my way out to G-Be Izakaya for a private party. It was more like a re-opening or maybe a formal grand opening because they never had one. There were some familiar faces, such as EdLau and Will Chack. I met a couple fellow RSers, and eventually met Kevin read more »

Horizons Restaurant

March 28, 2011 – 21:45

This offer is time sensitive, so I’m rushing this post up first. A little under a year ago on the morning of April 15th, 2010, a fire destroyed Horizon Restaurants kitchen. It’s taken 7 long months for them to rebuild, and I’m glad to say they’re back. So for the month of March, they’ve been read more »

Lao Shan Dong Taiwanese Beef Noodles – Burnaby, BC

September 8, 2010 – 22:32

Went for some TW Beef Noodles with Jeff and Victor a couple days before I was to leave to Toronto for work. Now I can’t exactly remember the reason why, I just felt like going to LSD since it’s been a while and I’ve actually never blogged about it. I ordered the more expensive Braised read more »

Chill Restaurant and Lounge, Burnaby

July 4, 2010 – 03:54

Chill Restaurant and Lounge is trendy, has bumping music, and is literally one license away from being a club. It’s got all the fixings of the typical modern Taiwanese restaurant that has become all but a standard here in Metro Vancouver. The plates here hint that things should be shared, like a tapas place..

I’m home in Vancouver! This post was drafted up on January 29th.. shows how long it’s been since an actual FOOD post from me! Tipped off by Brandon, this place would have never crossed my mind. You know how every neighbourhood seems to have their pub? For instance, the one near me would be Elephant read more »

Sunflower Cafe 向日葵 (Royal Oak Ave and Rumble St in Burnaby, BC)

January 12, 2010 – 07:00

I can’t recall the exact reason why we came out to Sunflower Cafe, perhaps it was all the discussion generated by Chowtimes discussion about Chef Hung… In any case, I had this starred in my Google Reader from Eat, Snap, Repeat with the intention of trying it. I linked it to James and he said 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 »

Bool Chul Pan Korean Hot Grill

October 20, 2009 – 20:32

Chowtimes posted about this vaguely named Korean restaurant in September, but I couldn’t go try it out quite as soon as I wanted because of my wisdom teeth. So, I decided to make it a event, and extended the invite out to my fans on Facebook. I did send out email invitations to the other read more »
