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 »

Torarenbo

My mom and I were hungry after a morning of buying materials at Home Depot so we decided to look for a place for lunch. At first she suggested other places but I nixed them all because 1)I’ve been there 2)I didn’t want the typical HK Cafe “cha chang tings” and 3) I was driving. read more »

Tenku Bakudanyaki (Richmond, BC)

I’m supppper late to the tenku party. Everyone’s gone except me. Extensively covered already by other bloggers and hyped about, it’s strange that it’s taken so long for me to try this out. The filling is the same, veggies, octopus, quail egg, etc…..it’s just the sauce and toppings that differs. All of them are $5. read more »

Fumisen (Richmond, BC)

After a bowl of ramen from Shoryumen, it was onto Fumisen for some cones. Customize to your hearts content and choose how big of a cone you want. If you’re indecisive, don’t want to be bothered with being creative, then you can just look to your right for the chef’s personal creations.

Shoryumen (Richmond, BC)

Garrick, a photographer that I met through Xanga [back when it was cool ] came up to Vancouver a couple weeks ago. Along with him for the ride was John, aka Wutuwaitn4. Both are from California, and are real awesome guys. Oh right, and Sean was also with us, but he’s local. Now this wasn’t read more »

King Crab @ Empire Seafood Restaurant

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 »

The Point in Steveston

How’s this for blast from the past? I’m just clearing out old posts that never got published, written or anything like that. Think of it as spring cleaning of some sort! So this is from Dine Out Vancouver 2009. Seeing as how this years Dine Out Vancouver is at the end of this month, I read more »

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

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 »

Steveston Pizza (Moncton St and 3rd Ave, Richmond)

Steveston Pizza. For anyone local to Vancouver or Richmond, just saying these two words together don’t really make sense, afterall Steveston is known for its harbour and seafood. Fish and chips should be the first thing that comes to mind, but an amazing little pizza joint resides here. Perhaps they’re there to give the community read more »

Tri-Ty Cafe (Richmond)

Originally we were planning to go to Bubble Queen, but I have so far been thwarted by their hours…damnit. Anyways, Margo suggested Tri-Ty instead so we came here instead. The way you order at Tri-Ty is they give you these menus, and beside each item is a box where you can mark it off. While read more »
