Oh Guu~~ I always have such a good time at your place! What’s your secret? For this particular visit, I’m sure the culprit must be the pitcher of Aloe Vera Mojito ($16.5) shared among two girls. Yep. That must be it. This was refreshing. I liked chewing on the mint leaves but there really aren’t [...]

I absolutely LOVED, LOVED LOOOOOOOOOVED our first dinner/meal in Japan. As we arrived quite late in the day in Osaka, we decided to spend the night at a hotel near the airport in the city of Shin-Osaka. After we checked in, we walked around in search for food. We were hungry!! Just across the intersection [...]

For F’s birthday dinner, I chose for us to head to Downtown via the Canada Line. It’s convenient and since F and O haven’t been on it before, I thought it’ll be fun. My restaurant choice that night was ShuRaku Japanese Bistro. Just get off at Vancouver City Centre Station and walk 1.5 blocks and [...]

The bunch of us congregated in Downtown again to attend M’s convocation at the new Vancouver Convention Centre. Afterwards, we had to decide where to go for dinner and I suggested Toratatsu since we all like Izakaya’s. As usual we’re all supposed to pick something. We ordered a bunch of stuff, some I’ve already blogged [...]

F and I met up with the gang on Sunday for dinner to catch up. W chose the place and she chose Soul Robata & Izakaya on Alexandra Road. As it was a Sunday I was weary of parking there, so I got Boyfriend to drop me off. That proved to be a smart choice. [...]

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 [...]
