♥ Valentine Adventures ♥

***Update: Please see end of post for SocialShopper’s reply*** We had quite an interesting Valentine’s celebration last weekend, with a few mishaps along the way…so to bring you guys the juicy (no, not that juicy) details we decided to collaborate on this one in the spirit of V-day.  I’ll go first: So for our dinner, Hitman [...]

Eh! Restaurant

Wendy and I had a WagJag deal for Eh! Restaurant so we decided to head down to the Alberni & Thurlow location to check it out.  Prices seemed quite reasonable for this area with many entrees on the rather sparse menu under $10 before the discount. The decor was kind of a cafe meets japanese [...]

Laziza Modern Mediterranean – A Tasting Event
