Dessert of the Day

Lunch at Carl's Jr.

I took the day off today and met with mother to have lunch and catch up. We went to Carl's Jr. It's the only branch in Vancouver.

Lunch at Tandoori Kona Restaurant

Tandoori Kona Restaurant is at a strip meal along Cambie Road. They serve delicious Indian food. Hubby and I ordered too much, as you can see.

Aloo Palak
Menu Description: Spinach and Potatoes

Tandoori Chicken
Menu Description: Traditional boned chicken tandoori

We ordered Tandoori Chicken because hubby pointed out that "tandoori" is in the restaurant name so it must be good.

Vegetable Samosa
Menu Description: Triangular Pastries with vegetable fillings

Gulab Jamuns
Menu Description: Round Indian cake balls in syrup

This one is too sweet for us and we love our sweets!

Lunch at Bourbon St. Grill

This is the best deal in the Richmond Center food court. For less than $15, you can get a plate full of your choice of meat, vegetable, and carbs.

Lunch at Café Crêpe

After a day of shopping around beautiful Downtown Vancouver, we decided to have lunch at Café Crêpe. The crêpe is highly recommended (of course). The burger is pretty good too, while the 4 Cheese Cavatappi Pasta is alright.

A reminder of home at Max's Fried Chicken in Vancouver

I crave Kare-Kare, so hubby and I end up at Max's Fried Chicken, a famous restaurant back in the Philippines.

When you're here, be sure to get Kare-Kare, eat it with bagoong (shrimp paste), and cover your rice with the thick sauce. Then, get some fried chicken too. I usually end up ordering an extra cup of rice when I'm here.

Aling Mary's and Josephine's

Aling Mary's and Josephine's are the two closest Filipino restaurants to our place so we frequent both places when we're craving for Filipino food (that I can't cook).

Pho for Dinner at Express Pho

It's raining outside and winter is coming soon so a warm pho for dinner seems the perfect call. We went to the closest one at our place, Express Pho along West Broadway (between Granville and Hemlock).
