Hey everyone!
So it feels like I legit haven't blogged in FOREVER and I truly apologize for the lack of posts on our blog. Usually I blog during the weekend but I've been so caught up with our Youtube Vlogging Channel, I've been lacking motivation to blog. But right now, i am back at it again and have many restaurant reviews lined up!
At Metrotown food court, there's a new food court vendor! They are called Chachi's! They specialize in gourmet sandwiches, using local, fresh ingredients from local butchers, cheesemakers & bakers. Their motto is "changing mall food, making it better and gourmet".
From first glance, the design layout of their food court stall definitely gives off a different vibe. Very modern, bright and clean.
While checking out their menu board, their prices are definitely much higher compared to all the other food court vendors. Prices are based on just the sandwich itself and it varies approx. $10-$12. You may add sides and drinks on the side if needed.
Hey everyone!
Before Christmas hit, a new Burnaby Taiwanese style cafe opened up across from Metrotown. This is no ordinary Taiwanese cafe because you're probably thinking "bubble tea & popcorn chicken". This is a legit cafe that serves, tea, coffee, sandwiches, waffles, etc. We were invited by Fondway Cafe & Chobee PR to their food media launch event and we were extremely excited to be able to attend. The whole restaurant was closed for this special media event so we had the whole place to check out and try their food & drinks.
When you first enter, on the right hand side, there is a whole wall filled with different types of tea. In front of each tea can, they include a description & price per grams. We were able to try out a few drinks they prepared for us and all of them were extremely delicious. When you smell the flavor, it smells very strong BUT the taste of the tea is very subtle.
Hi everyone!
Happy Chinese New Year!!!!
It's been a busy couple of weeks, but I finally have time to blog! Yesterday we had to head down to Abbotsford for work related purposes and we were so happy that the weather was so gorgeous. After finishing up with business in Abbotsford, we decided to choose a local restaurant to try out. When we went through Urbanspoon, the ratings for O'Neills Home Cooking was very good, so we decided to give that place a try!
O'Neill's Home Cooking is located in Gosling Way. This place is really close to Duft & Co Bakehouse. At first glance, interior is rather dull and doesn't have much character but when we first stepped in, the host greeted us and knew right away we were first timers (I guess it's because I wasn't sure what to do when I first entered and looked rather confused??)! We were fully introduced to the menu by her and she was extremely friendly and helpful! Her service made me feel very comfortable in this place and definitely gave me a home vibe. Everyday they have different type of specials, yesterdays special was Potato leek & garlic soup & Shepherds pie.
At first me & Phil wanted to order two separate sandwiches so we can try different things but the host advised us that the sandwiches are HUGE! At first we weren't sure how big it'll be so we were pretty indecisive. After a few seconds of hesitation, a big man came over (aka. one of the customers) he came over and had to wrap up most of his meal and he was already sharing his with his buddy! After seeing that occurring, we finalized on our decision and just ordered one sandwich plus combo (additional $4.00, which came with soup & drink).
We decided to order "The Classic" which consists of Toasted golden sweet potato bun, black forest ham, cooked egg, cheese & mayo ($6.00)
The sandwich and soup was split between me and Phil so we both got a half sandwiched with a bowl of soup.
Second blog of the day!!!
I just can't stop can I? LOL Let's just say I have a lot of spare time on my hands right now.
When we were at Pike Place, we came across Beecher's Handmade cheese. At first, I thought they only sell cheese, but actually they sell food as well! They had mac and cheese and different types of sandwiches. I like the fact that they had two different line ups; one for cheese and one just for the food.
Anybody else tried this place before? I really like this place! Everything is healthy and fresh daily but the only down side to it is its pretty pricey for what it is actually worth. Their fresh wraps and sandwiches are super tasty though! It's located at the Pacific Centre food court next to Dairy Queen/Orange Julius I believe.
I got the Chicken Avocado Wrap ($5.95). Definitely a healthy option for people who are on a diet. I was trying to eat healthy so I got this before me and limmerZ go to Harbour dance studio for our hip hop class. Very fresh and healthy, I love it!
