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.

2017 Lights at Lafarge – Free Holiday Light Display in Coquitlam
Last Christmas holiday, Mr. and I went to the Lights of Christmas in the US. Yes, it's the largest in Pacific Northwest, but there's a holiday light display right in our backyard. Best of all, it's free -- the Lights at Lafarge in Coquitlam. The event just ended last weekend. Did you catch it before it ended? If not, let me share some pictures for you.
Snowy Village Coquitlam – Everything Mochi!
Snowy Village opened its Coquitlam location in late December. The cold winter and rainy spring didn't seem to stop people from getting their shaved ice/bingsoo fix. Everytime I went (3 times now, in the last 2 months), there was always a short lineup at the door. So we noticed some new items on the menu, and naturally, we gave some of these a try.
