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.
There have been a number of shaved ice shops popping up around Vancouver. One of them is Snowy Village in Central Richmond. It's been a few months and there's still lineup out the door. Finally one Friday I was determined to try Snowy Village, whatever and however long it takes!
My friend CC told me about this waffle place near Coquitlam Centre -- Miracle Belgian Waffle. Having moved to Richmond, I'm not in Coquitlam as often anymore; so when CC wanted to meet up in Coquitlam, I took the opportunity to check it out.
Trees Organic is no stranger to me, as I often schedule coffee meet at the centrally-located Granville store. I have also bought its cheesecakes for birthdays before, a bit pricey but they are very good. So when I heard that they are running a promo on National Cheesecake Day on July 30, I jumped on the opportunity to learn more about it.
For Mother's Day, I took Mama Lam to Got Craft to get some inspirations for her hobby craft work. Of course, there were a number of local food producers exhibiting as well. In particular, the La Chocolaterie booth caught my eyes with its colourful collection of chocolates. I picked up a few boxes to take home for a tasting.
