Calipops!
I was feeling thirsty at Steveston after the donuts, and walked by Timothy’s, but wasn’t exactly craving ice cream. I ended up trying a Calipop instead since it reminded me of something similar I had back in the day. It’s pretty smooth and strong in strawberry flavour, but wasn’t as icy as I had hoped it to be. It was more like a smooth, creamy texture rather than icy....

Outpost Mini Donut Co.
Vancouver weather has finally been more pleasant and a sunny day meant heading over to the Steveston Village for a walk. Everyone has been talking about these donuts at Outpost Mini Donu Co. for a while, but I never even noticed this donut shop although I walk past it almost every time I’m there. The interior is really cute and cozy, and you can see the making of donuts coming fresh out of...

Loving Hut
Crispy Chick’n Burger
I’ve been interning in downtown these days, and finally met up with Andrew to grab lunch since we actually worked pretty close together! He brought me to Loving Hut, which is located just across the street from the Yaletown Canada Line Station, and in front of the Yaletown Roundhouse Community Centre. Loving Hut actually serves vegan burgers, but I honestly...

L.A. Chicken
8 piece Family Meal (1/2 regular, 1/2 spicy)
Everyone has been talking about L.A. Chicken and raving that their chicken is better than KFC’s and Church’s. I finally tried it and was surprised to see that the location wasn’t as sketch as I had imagined it to be. I was also greeted by an Asian lady at the counter who knew how to speak Cantonese. We first got the first tray of...

I was craving some ramen the other day, and we were headed towards the downtown area so I quickly urbanspooned what was around, and of course the typical Kintaro and Santouka come up. I spotted Benkei Ramen, which had pretty good ratings, so I was down to try something new.
The exterior is really Japanese with the wooden decor and upon entering, we...
