Lunch from Tokyo Katsu-Sand at TGIFood Truck in South Granville, Vancouver

TGIF is back! The South Granville Business Improvement Association (SGBIA) organized Thank Granville It's Food Trucks (TGIF). Every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 12 noon until 7 in the evening from June through the last weekend of August, there will be a rotating lineup of food trucks along West 10th Avenue at Fir Street in front of the Vancouver School Board building.

Lunch from Tokyo Katsu-Sand

After our walk today, we went to the corner of Fir Street and West 10th Avenue for lunch. There are five food trucks in the neighbourhood today, and the only one we haven't tried is Tokyo Katsu-Sand. Hubby pointed out that the "Sand" in their name is for sandwiches and not actual sand. 😁

Lunch from Tokyo Katsu-Sand

Gyu-Katsu
Deep-fried Canadian strip loin beef cutlet, gyu-katsu sauce, and wasabi-mixed mayonnaise

It's rare! They have a sign near the register (and the cashier also informs you) that the Gyu Katsu is rare. If you don't want it, they recommend getting the pork or chicken.

From this meal, I realized I am not a fan of rare beef. 😌 The sauce was delicious, and the outside was still crunchy, but the middle was rare.

Ton-Katsu
Deep-fried pork cutlet, shredded cabbage homemade ton-katsu sauce, and mustard-mixed mayonnaise

Ton-katsu is delicious. If you see Tokyo Katsu-Sand, choose the Ton-Katsu.

A Scoop from Uno Gelato

Happy Sunday! After Mass today, we decided to walk around and ended up doing a 9-kilometre walk in portions of the Seawall and across two bridges. On the False Creek side, we saw Uno Gelato open on the side of Mahony and Sons (now called Mahony's Tavern). I ordered Roasted Hazelnut while my husband went for Pistacho. 

Pistachio Gelato and Roasted Hazelnut Gelato

I am grateful that we're not allergic to nuts since we enjoyed both ice creams while continuing our walk. The flavour is so distinct and pronounced.

Paced Walking


Breakfast from Tim Hortons | 2 Farmer's Breakfast Wrap for $6 Offer

Happy Sunday! For breakfast today, we're going to enjoy two Farmer's Breakfast Wraps for $6.30 to utilize my weekly offer from Tims. I also ordered a small coffee and a small hot chocolate redeemed with our Tims Rewards points.

Sausage Farmer's Breakfast Wrap

Bacon Farmer's Breakfast Wrap

We enjoyed our meal while slowly walking to church for Sunday Mass.

Dinner from Pizza Hut

For dinner, we ordered the Triple Treat Box from Pizza Hut to continue Mama's birthday celebration today. We enjoyed it while watching "Turning Red."

12" Medium Cheese Lover's® Stuffed Crust

12" Medium Super Supreme Lover's® Stuffed Crust

Cinnabon® Mini Rolls Triple Treat, Boneless Bites, and Breadsticks (Regular)

My husband and I felt so bloated afterwards, and our conclusion is that since we're eating less (in general), our stomach is sending us signals that we had too much food today.


Party Tray from Sushi Master Vancouver

Happy Saturday! We're celebrating our mom's birthday today, and she requested sushi party trays. I was initially going to get them from T&T Supermarket, but they don't allow pick-up before 2:00 PM when I tried ordering online.

I searched for sushi party trays near me on Google Maps and found several options, which is not surprising because there are around five sushi restaurants within a kilometre of where we live. I chose Sushi Master as part of our BBB campaign.

I ordered both of their party trays which means I can try a lot of their rolls and nigiri.

Party Tray A from Sushi Master

Party Tray A (52 pcs) includes the following items:

  • California Roll (8pcs)
  • Dynamite Roll (8pcs)
  • Yam Roll (8pcs)
  • Alaska Roll (8pcs)
  • Salmon with Avocado Roll (8pcs)
  • Salmon Maki (6pcs)
  • Tuna Maki (6pcs)
Party Tray B from Sushi Master

Meanwhile, Party Tray B (37 pcs) includes the following: 

  • Salmon Nigiri (4pcs)
  • Sockeye Salmon Nigiri (4pcs)
  • Tuna Nigiri (4pcs)
  • Ebi Nigiri (4pcs)
  • Crunchy California Roll (8pcs)
  • Salmon Avocado Roll (8pcs)
  • House Roll (5pcs)
It was our first time ordering a Sushi Party Tray ever, so it became quite overwhelming to have so many options, but everything was delicious. 

Is there a thing such as "I ate too much sushi?"

I highly recommend you try food from Sushi Master and support local businesses in Vancouver.

Breakfast from Tim Hortons | 2 Can Dine for $8.99 Offer

Happy Saturday! My favourite offer from Tim Hortons is back this week, and you bet I will take advantage of getting two coffees, two classic breakfast sandwiches, and two hash browns for $10.00 (after taxes).

When doing "testing" on the app, there are only three breakfast sandwiches that would classify for this offer:
  1. Egg & Cheese Breakfast Sandwich
  2. Sausage Breakfast Sandwich
  3. Bacon Breakfast Sandwich
Please let me know in the comments or send me a message on Facebook or Instagram if other Breakfast Sandwiches would work.

Look at the difference in height between the small and extra-large coffee.

The best thing about the promo is that you get any size coffee, and the hash browns are like a bonus. During the weeks when the promo is unavailable, the same meal would cost us close to $16.00.

After enjoying breakfast, I ordered potato wedges (my favourite from Tim Hortons) and the Chocolate Coconut Toasted Donut.

The donut itself is surprisingly good. It's not dry, and it's not super sweet, but the coconut flavour is subtle and mild, which is disappointing since it's really just the flakes on top.

Where to get the best poutine in Vancouver? | Canada Day Food Guide 2022

There are many ways to celebrate Canada Day in Vancouver. For example, I highly recommend you enjoy the food from the only Indigenous restaurant in the city, Salmon n' Bannock.

Or you can try the best poutine in Vancouver. This post is my attempt to compile a list of the "best poutine in Vancouver" based on articles or lists on the first page of the Google Search result.

"The gravy was good, not too salty, and the curds were melted. I enjoyed the smoked meat too. Overall, it's good poutine. I think it's the best one I've had so far." - Smooch Food 2021
