We were driving back to Kits from Richmond after attending media events for Saboten and H-Mart’s grand openings in Aberdeen Centre and wanted a quick bite to eat for lunch.

Unique McDonald’s Menu Items In Hawaii
We got up extra early one morning during our trip to the Big Island to drive out to Honaunau to (attempt to) swim with the dolphins. Nothing was open at the crack of dawn for breakfast except for the 24-hour McDonald’s in Kealakekua. Eating McDonald’s in Hawaii when we could be eating Loco Moco or Hawaiian [...]

Guu With Garlic Izakaya Review
Out of the six Guu izakaya locations on the Lower Mainland, we’ve previously eaten at Guu with Otokome in Gastown and Guu’s original location on Thurlow. Most recently we checked out the second oldest Guu restaurant, Guu with Garlic on Robson Street. This popular Japanese tapas eatery boasts an amusing concept: “Garlic is sexy”. Sexy [...]

If you’re a banh mi fan and live in Vancouver, then you’ve most likely been to a Ba Le location. There are three of these [...]
