  • Richmond Public Market

    After a long day of watching our kids playing at the Terra Nova playground we needed a family feast, and fast.     So we stopped into the Wonder Wok on the second floor of the Richmond Public Market.     We went with the four dishes for $26 combo.  Our kids loved the green beans and…

  • Okonomi Sushi New Westminster 

    Lunch today in New Westminster was a sushi combo of a Dynamite Roll with two pieces each of salmon and tuna nigiri sushi.    It was very good. Nicely cut and portioned sushi with good flavour.  The Okonomi Sushi I went to is on 6th Street in uptown New Westminster. 

  • Early Lunch at Cheese St Grill Food Truck 

    I forgot to share this picture from yesterday’s lunch so here it is today – a Breakfast Brioche sandwich from the Cheese St Grill food truck. The Cheese St Grill truck was parked on Poirier St, near the Coquitlam Farmer’s Market.     I was looking for a breakfast type sandwich and this one fit the…

  • “Cook Your Life” at the Gateway Theatre

    Following last year’s ground-breaking inaugural year, Gateway Theatre is thrilled to bring back the Gateway Theatre Pacific Festival, showcasing in Richmond BC the best contemporary theatre Hong Kong has to offer. One of the theatre events in the Gateway Theatre Pacific Festival that is of particular interest to me combines two of my passions: food and live theatre.…

  • Lunch at the Northern Cafe and Grill

    For my last lunch out and away from New Westminster I decided to hit up the Northern Cafe and Grill one more time. I went there earlier in the summer for a breakfast and the owner told me to come back again to see him to try the burgers he makes. He told me he…

  • Lunch at the Sun Star Restaurant

    In the past I have gone to the Sun Star restaurant for breakfast. Just the simple two eggs, hashbrowns and bacon type of fare. After a long training session in the local pool (what else are you going to do during a monsoon?) the girls and I were hungry, bordering on hangry. So I wheeled…

  • The Horn of Plenty Cafe

    I made it into the Horn of Plenty Cafe in Agassiz today before 3pm so I had one of their kangaroo burgers. It was very cool. The server told me they cook kangaroo burgers medium rare because the meat is so lean and I’ll say I’m glad it they only cook it medium rare because…

  • A Beef Burger at Jack’s 

    I was told about a restaurant I should try in the Fraser Valley. It is at the intersection where you can turn to go to Agassiz or you can go up to Harrison Hot Springs.  Seeing as I was driving through the Fraser Valley along the Scenic Hwy 7, I thought why not try a…

  • Lunch at Pho Holiday

    Mondays call for a bowl of pho.     As well as a small bowl of pho with rare beef, brisket and tendon, today I had a Vietnamese sub sandwich with grilled pork.     The sandwich was wonderful. The French style roll, baked in a nearby Vietnamese bakery had the perfect crisp outer crust with the…

  • The Wildcat Grill Restaurant 

    Lunch today in Rosedale – it is just east of Chilliwack – at the Wildcat Restsurant.  I chose their Caesar salad rather than fries as a side. Healthy choices and all that. The massive side of Caesar salad was perfectly creamy.     My main was a Buffalo Chicken burger. A grilled chicken breast with hot…
