CHAU VeggiExpress- Healthy Yet Delicious

Long ago, Misu raved about this one restaurant she was in love with. I was intrigued and totally up for trying it out but when she said it was a vegetarian pho place, I stopped. I couldn't imagine what vegetarian pho would taste like! Wasn't all pho broth made with meat and bones? And what would replace the oh so delicious tripe, beef balls, and raw beef slices?  All my worries washed away when I saw the incredibly high rating on Urbanspoon....

Indochine Kitchen + Bar - Phnom Penh #2

It has been a while since I've had a foodie night, so last week, I caught up with foodobyte and Desmond for some Vietnamese eats at Indochine Kitchen + Bar. And in case you were wondering. Yes. I drew faces on the chicken wings. One of the reoccurring statements I often hear about this place is that it is a Phnom Penh #2. They serve pretty much the same dishes, and so far, it seems like they are doing just as well of a job, or better....

Last Saturday, me and the girls decided to go out, dress pretty, and party our little butts off till dawn.

Wildebeest is located in Gastown on West Hastings Street and next door is...

The Keg Steakhouse and Bar (Burnaby)- What a Beautiful Sight

The Keg is a place I don't go to very often because of its relatively higher price range and fine dining atmosphere.  Meta Knight and I recently went to The Keg in Burnaby and we were extremely surprised to see a line up to  the door! The wait was around 45 minutes for the dining room so we decided to try our luck in the lounge. We were lucky that day and found two seats at the bar! Perfect for the Canucks game on that night as well! The...

Fray on Fraser (Now Closed)- Portobello Jenga Fries. Bam.

If you haven't heard already, the local dining and board gaming restaurant called "Fray on Fraser" is now officially closed. The reason was not because they were not earning enough profit, it was because of a legal dispute between investors. It's a very sad thing to witness, really.  I came here with a bunch of my friends right before Fray closed and had a wonderful time. We were definitely planning on coming back but now I guess we can't....
