My Favourite Restaurants near Coquitlam Centre for Pick-up or Delivery #TakeOutDay

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.

[Recipe] One Bite Nougat Puff – Chewy Confection with a Crunch 牛軋酥食譜

Last month, Mama Lam made some nougats. It's good but it's a bit boring, so she found a recipe to take it up a notch. It's called Nougat Puff. It's essentially nougat with the addition of crunchy crackers. We've made a few batches now and each time it has turned out well.

[Vancouver Hot Chocolate Festival 2020] Chez Christophe

Another hot chocolate stop I've made was Chez Christophe in Burnaby. I remember meeting Christophe at a work conference years ago when he was doing cooking demonstration. That was before he opened his shop in Burnaby. Since then, I've been there a few times for pastries, but this was my first time trying their hot chocolate fest creations.
