  • New Westminster’s Best Pulled Pork Sandwich; NaBloPoMo Day 15

  • Take Five Cafe Take Two; Day 10 NaBloPoMo

    Ironically I had to “take five” out of my busy schedule in order to re-visit the newest location of the Take Five Cafe in New Westminster’s Brewery District development. And I can say that I am glad I did. On my first visit I had the medium sized Americano. As I said in my previous…

  • Friday Super-Saver Gourmet Hotdog

    One of the things I really wanted to try at this year’s PNE (other than the deep-fried butter, yes, that is correct, deep-fried butter) was the 24″ gourmet hotdog topped with an entire pound of chili con carne, green onions, bacon bits, grilled peppers and cheese sauce. However, add the gate admission of $20 per…

  • Peanut Butter Pie Cheesecake Recipe

Very recently a friend of mine posted on Facebook that she was making Peanut Butter Pie Cheesecake. Seeing as peanut butter is one of my favourite foods, I had to…
