unPhogettable Review (Mesa, Arizona)

on May 16, 2012 in Vietnamese

unPhogettable is a family-run Vietnamese restaurant located in the Mekong Plaza (a South East Asian indoor retail mall) on Dobson Road in Mesa, AZ. (The same family also runs a sister restaurant, Pho 78 in Virginia Beach, Virginia). The Mesa location has two convenient entrances, so you can either enter unPhogettable right outside the Mekong […]

In-N-Out Burger Review (North Scottsdale, Arizona)

on May 1, 2012 in Burgers

The one question we always receive from friends and readers when we’re down in Arizona is, “did you go to In-N-Out?!” Of course! If we’re visiting a state that offers In-N-Out Burger — Arizona, California, Nevada, Texas, Utah — you can guarantee we’ll stop by. So, when we were shopping at The Promenade (there’s a […]

Panda Express Review (Mesa, Arizona)

on May 1, 2012 in Chinese

It seems like there’s a Panda Express “Gourmet Chinese Food” location on just about every street corner in the Phoenix Metropolitan Area. This restaurant is extremely popular down here in Arizona’s Valley of the Sun (as it is in Hawaii as well). Maybe it’s their catchy commercials, or cute panda bears all over the walls, […]

Royal Thai Cafe Review (Keauhou, Hawaii)

on February 2, 2012 in South East Asian

If you’re staying at the Sheraton Keauhou Bay, then just down the street at the Keauhou Shopping Center (same complex as L&L Hawaiian Barbecue) you’ll find some tasty and authentic Thai cuisine on the Big Island of Hawaii. That’s right - Thai food in Kona and it’s truly delicious! We visited a couple times during […]

Starbucks Kona Coast Shopping Center (Kona, Hawaii)

on February 1, 2012 in Cafe, Coffee Shops

Situated in the Kona Coast Shopping Center — across from Jamba Juice smoothies, Ba Le Vietnamese sandwiches, and Orange Tree frozen yogurt — there’s a cute little Starbucks on the Big Island of Hawaii. What’s make Starbucks Hawaii different from all the rest? Well for starters, this particular one’s a stand-alone location with screen doors […]

Kona Mountain Coffee Review (Kona, Hawaii)

on January 30, 2012 in Cafe, Coffee Shops

If you’re visiting Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii, then you must stop by Kona Mountain Coffee for their amazing coffee and tasty treats! Located on Hulikoa Drive, you’ll find Kona Mountain Coffee just off of Queen Kaahumanu Highway. If you’re driving towards the Kona International Airport, look for the blue building and “Kohanaiki” sign […]

Jamba Juice Review (Marysville, WA)

on October 12, 2011 in Breakfast

Jamba Juice is similar to Canada’s Booster Juice or Jugo Juice (both Alberta-founded) - except it’s far superior to both. Jamba’s smoothies are always the perfect consistency: super thick, yet easy to drink from a straw, well blended so they’re extra smooth and non-icy. Jamba uses real whole fruit and real fruit juice in is […]

Krispy Kreme Doughnuts Review (Burlington, WA)

on October 11, 2011 in Coffee Shops, Dessert

To take advantage of our NEXUS pass, we did some shopping (and eating!) in Washington state this past long-weekend. On the way home, I checked out the Lululemon outlet in Burlington (near Bellingham). However, after having no luck at the outlet, we noticed a Krispy Kreme and headed straight in for what else - doughnuts! […]

SoHo Cafe Review (New York, NY)

on September 16, 2011 in Cafe, Coffee Shops, Dessert

You can find SoHo Cafe located on the corner of Broadway & Broome in New York City’s fabulous SoHo district. With the perfect central location, the cafe experiences tonnes of foot-traffic from throngs of locals and tourists shopping in the popular and very busy area. We stopped by, feeling the need to refuel with a […]

Chipotle Mexican Grill - Financial District (New York, NY)

on September 14, 2011 in Mexican

Where can you go for mammoth-sized burritos, perfectly crafted ripe and creamy guacamole, and ‘healthy-ish-fast-food’ burrito salad bowls? Chipotle of course! Since we don’t have a location in Vancouver, yet (one is coming soon, according to their official Twitter account) we always make a point of hitting up a Chipotle joint whenever we get the […]
