Nightingale

Hey Everyone,

So it's finally Friday, and we're off on another lunch with the boys!


@teamGL1

This time we're checking out the newly opened sister restaurant of Hawksworth, Nightingale!

Pho D'lite

Hey Everyone,

So since recently finding out that there was no pho near my place, once I discovered that Pho D'lite would be opening up at Solo, I was thinking wow, someone is definitely taking advantage of the fact they will be the only pho restaurant in the Brentwood area! 



The interior looked very modern, and rightfully so as it was a brand new restaurant. They had very unique chairs that didn't look very comfortable, but actually were.

Glowbal Grill

Hey Everyone,

So back around Christmas time, I had the chance to check out the new Glowbal Grill that opened up at the Telus building!

Canucks Centre Ice Grill

Hey Everyone,

So during the season, I had the opportunity to catch a Canucks game with seats at the Centre Ice Grill! This is on the 400 level at Rogers Arena, between upper bowl and the 500 level suites. It's essentially a restaurant/bar and only specific seats along the edge of the restaurant get an overlooking view at the ice. The staff there are pretty strict about people with seats on the inside of the restaurant trying to move to the edge for a view of the game. There's two levels to the restaurant, and we were on the upper level. 

Here's the view from our seats:

Prince Seafood Restaurant

Hey Everyone,

Not too long ago I had dimsum with Jess and her family at Prince! I've been here previously for dinner but never for dimsum, so I was curious to see how it was. 

We had quite a few items but I'll feature a few select items here.



We had the Steamed Spareribs which were not bad here. I don't usually go for this dish but I was hungry so I had some. I found them to be mediocre, but not special in any way, and to be honest, Jess' mom makes them better!

Pho Han

Hey Everyone,

So Pho Han is a pho place that we've passed by many times on Garden City but never got around to trying it, but we finally did!

Pizza Garden

Hey Everyone,

So Jess told me about a new pizza place that opened up at the new Aberdeen side, and given that there is hardly anything open yet on the new side, and I love pizza, we had to try this out!

Uncle Fatih's Pizza

Hey Everyone,

So I've heard that Uncle Fatih's is supposed to have pretty good pizza, but I never got around to trying it until recently. Jess and I were going to a Canucks game so we thought we'd grab some food before going in.

La Creperie - Las Vegas - Paris

Hey Everyone,

On the evening of day 1 in Vegas, Jess and I went exploring up the strip from Planet Hollywood, and we happened upon the Paris! It was so cool to see the Eiffel Tower there as it was actually going into the casino itself! We had looked up places to eat on our phones earlier, so we were looking to try out La Creperie, and with a little help from the directory we were able to find it! 

Check it out as part of our day 1 vlog below!



Hash House a Go Go - Las Vegas - The Linq

Hey Everyone,

On day 5 of our Vegas trip, Jess and I hit up Hash House a Go Go for lunch/dinner while walking around the strip again. It was our last day and with limited time left, we had to try and cross off more from our list of must try places in Vegas.

Check it out on our day 5 vlog below!

Earl of Sandwich - Las Vegas - Planet Hollywood

Hey Everyone,

Hello from Las Vegas! On our first day after arriving, we decided to hit up Earl of Sandwich for lunch, one of our favourite spots for a great sandwich in Vegas! It was conveniently located at Planet Hollywood, which was very walkable from where we stayed, The Signature at MGM Grand. 

Check out our vlog of day 1, including the visit to Earl of Sandwich!

Frites - Revisit

Hey Everyone,

Early last year we tried a poutine place called Frites and we thought it was good, but it wasn't amazing and did not seem very memorable, but recently we were invited to try them out again, so we did a revisit!

Chatime - Surrey

Hey Everyone,

Domo Is Craving was kindly invited to the soft opening of Chatime's newest location in Surrey! It's located on King George Blvd right near the Surrey Central mall. 





Lift Bar and Grill

Hey Everyone,

I recently had the chance to check out Lift Bar and Grill for lunch on a very cold winter day.

BT Cafe

Hey Everyone,

After volleyball drop in recently, a few teammates and I went for lunch afterwards, and after trying to go to a few other places, we ended up at BT Cafe. They're an HK cafe style restaurant, so I would go for what I usually order at these types of restaurants: Pick 2 Items combos.

Mango Yummy

Hey Everyone,

Since Jess and I almost never have the appetite for dessert after our dinners, we thought it would be a good idea to have dessert during the day instead, before we stuff ourselves at dinner! 

We had heard of Mango Yummy before and I've even tried their mochi already when Jess' mom brought back some for us when she went there. That mochi was pretty good so we always wanted to give this place a visit.

They are part of a strip mall across from Richmond Centre so they have their own parking lot in front, which is shared with the strip mall.

Inside, seating is limited, but luckily we were able to get a table just as a group was leaving. You order from the counter and pick it up there as well. 

There were so many choices to pick from, but we settled on their Signature Mango Shaved Ice $7.

Pho An Nam

Hey Everyone,

Richmond is full of pho restaurants, and so far my favourite has been Pho 37 but I'm always on the lookout for good pho restaurants that are closer than Ironwood. Jess suggested to try out Pho An Nam so off we went!

TaiShoKen Ramen

Hey Everyone,

Jess and I were in downtown for a Canucks game and we go there early to go eat somewhere nearby, and we happened upon TaiShoKen Ramen when walking around the area. It seems we're on a ramen streak recently so without further adieu!

Bubble World - Central Burnaby

Hey Everyone,

Bubble World in Burnaby near Metrotown was a place I frequented back in the highschool and early university days, but recently I've been coming back here a bit more often and it's just as good as it was back in the day! They're a Taiwanese bubble tea restaurant with more modern and western style dishes than traditional ones.

Starting off with drinks, I went with my usual, Honey Chrysanthemum, cold, with Grass Jelly $4.45.



They've added a ton of new items to the menu since those days but the classics are still good. One item that is newish was what I ordered, Taiwanese Pork Chop w/ Rice $7.95.

Ramen Jinya

Hey Everyone,

My buddy told me about this place when we drove by before, so we finally got around to trying it. With tons of ramen choices in downtown, this one is actually away from the main group of ramen restaurants at Robson and Denman. The wait outside didn't look too bad either for a Saturday afternoon, so we put our name down and waited. You write your own name on the waitlist right outside their door. 

After a not so long wait, we were seated inside by the centre oval "bar".
