Dinner delivery from Juke Fried Chicken

I enjoyed this meal last
It's a happy Tuesday! Hubby said yes to ordering fried chicken and tomorrow, we'll pick up 5 days worth of food from New India Buffet + Bar & Restaurant. We'll be out for a couple of hours running errands (yes, we need to go to the bank too - coins are needed for laundry). Then, we'll be staying home again for the next week. Praying that a vaccine for COVID-19 is invented soon. Juke Fried Chicken Juke Fried Chicken for delivery Cheers to supporting small and local restaurants and their employees in these difficult times.

Lunch delivery from Broadway Chinese Restaurant

I enjoyed this meal last
Hubby and I are blessed to have work in these difficult times. We both work in the tech industry, and as such, we can work from home. We get to keep our salaries, benefits, and everything that goes with it. Not everyone is as lucky. I always ask myself, how can we help. With the economy down, we need to help keep money going around. Today, I placed an order on Skip The Dishes from Broadway Chinese Restaurant. It's a small business in our neighbourhood. Skip also has the option to tip the restaurant, which I did. I ordered A LOT of food, more than enough for us to eat over the weekend up to early next week. I also gave a 20% tip to the Skip The Dishes driver. What's the point of this post? My point is if you did not lose your job and are still earning, please spend a bit more to help those small businesses and their employees. With my purchase today, I helped the restaurant, the delivery person, and Skip The Dishes. Let's help each other keep the economy going. Our

Lunch delivery from Church's Chicken

I enjoyed this meal last
Day 7 of mostly staying at home. Since last Monday, we've only been out of the house to grab groceries, then go back home. Today, I needed my fried chicken fix, and thankfully, Church's Chicken is on SkipTheDishes. What's inside the bag? Church's Chicken! Fried Chicken fix Butter Biscuit and Chicken Strips I tried the biscuit for the first time, and now I understand why people on Twitter are raving about this thing. It's so delicious.

Pi Day 2020 at La Ruota and The Pie Hole

I enjoyed this meal last
We love Pi day! We celebrated it last year  and the year before as well. For 2020, Pi day is on a Saturday, so we had more time to explore and visit places. We walked around 4th Avenue between Maple and Burrard Avenue to eat pie and pizza slices. "I only have pies for you." La Ruota Authentic Neopolitan Pizza This is a relatively new place in this neighbourhood. We grabbed a couple of pizza slices each and found it surprising! I'm also surprised how quickly the area filled up after we sat down. Pizza slice for Pi day Pizza slices for Pi day The Pie Hole The perfect place to celebrate the pi day is in a restaurant dedicated to pie. There was a line up to the door! I completely forgot that they were doing a $3.14 for a 4" pie promo. By the time we're in front, they announced that the 4" pies are sold out. It was crazy! As with our tradition, we got our "usual" apple pie, pecan pie (in this case it was pecan tart),

Dinner at Caffe Barneys

I enjoyed this meal last
I ended my previous post with our plans to resign was delayed because of an event. Well, at around three in the afternoon, we all received an email from HR that we will all be working from home for a month. After sorting things out at the office, hubby and I decided to have dinner outside. Barney's Nachos Barney's Nachos is terrific. It has tied the nachos from The Mexican in Downtown Vancouver. The primary difference is this one does not skimp on the toppings. It's overloaded for sure. The one at The Mexican is a winner as well because of the homemade chips. Moscow Mule Classic Poutine with pork belly Dessert of the Week! Let's see how I'll survive this month-long work from home.

Lunch at Go Fish

I enjoyed this meal last
It's been an exhausting day at work, and we went to grab lunch at Go Fish. I had my usual 2-pc salmon and fries. It was a beautiful cold day in Vancouver. The skies were clear, which is perfect for eating outside. 2-pc salmon and fries One of my colleagues said this is like the last supper for us, eh? We were planning to resign on Friday the 13th (i.e. tomorrow), but events later on the day will change our plans.
