Hello 2023!! 2022 is a wrap and there's so much to be grateful for and to celebrate. Here are my favourite 10 bites/sips. Now keep in mind this list is about the specific item listed, and restaurants rotate their menu on a regular basis so what I had enjoyed may not be available anymore (and I will try my best to specify below).
Over a five-day winecation in the Okanagan (yes, we have an "official" name for our wine vacation) with our friends B&K, we visited a number of wineries, eateries and attractions in the area. One of which was TIME Winery & Kitchen in Penticton. We ended up spending 3 hours at TIME, starting with a lunch.
As we are all practising physical distancing, we are also cooking more at home. Even though Mama Lam does most of the cooking in my household, it's still nice to offer her a break. And that would also help support local businesses to keep them afloat during this challenging time. Even though I've been mostly active in Vancouver and Richmond, I actually live in Coquitlam (I'm willing to travel for food!). Here is a round-up of my favourite places near Coquitlam Centre that are available for pick-up or delivery right now.
Recently, a famous Japanese tendon franchise -- Kaneko Hannosuke -- opened its first Canadian location in Vancouver. Tendon is the Japanese name for tempura rice bowl. I took Mama Lam and Papa Lam there on a Monday morning.
Last year a few fried chicken shops popped up, one of which was Win Win Chick-N in Steveston. It was quite hyped up and this Valentine's Day it was even selling a fried chicken bouquet rivaling Juke. It's a bit of a trek to go to Steveston just for fried chicken but when I won a gift card there, there's no more excuse for me not to try them out.
