Dinner at Chachi's

I was in Downtown Vancouver after office hours to go shopping. Well, I need a couple things from The Body Shop and decided it's time to buy a new top for the upcoming work holiday dinner.

After running errands, we decided to grab dinner at the Urban Eatery inside the Pacific Center. We have tried all the places inside, and the last on our list is Chachi's.

Mac and Cheese and Clubbin' Sandwiches

The Clubbin' Sandwich has double-smoked bacon, roast turkey breast, cheddar, garlic aioli, spicy mayo, lettuce, and tomato.

Thoughts: Don't get the plain Mac and Cheese. The sandwich was excellent, and I can't wait to try the other type they have.

Sunday Brunch at Denny's

Hubby and I woke up later than usual today. Sundays mean Tim Hortons breakfast at 8 in the morning and attend the 9 AM Mass.

Today, we had brunch at Denny's at 10:00 AM and attended the 11:00 AM Mass.

It's nice to wake up a little later than usual and enjoy a break from our routine.

For today, I had Prime Rib Denny's Bennies. Despite the charred onion, the rib itself was tender. The egg was perfectly poached, and the hollandaise sauce was excellent.

Saturday Brunch at Tap & Barrel

We were at Olympic Village for Pokemon GO Community Day and decided to have brunch at Tap & Barrel.

I got Chicken & Waffles while hubby got the Tap Burger replacing fries with poutine. For desserts, we had Milk Chocolate Brownie.

Chicken & Waffles

I found the chicken too salty, which is why you really need to use the syrup. With it, the crunchy fried chicken and waffle tasted great.

Lunch at Menya Raizo

It used to be my fave Ramen place in Vancouver, but a year ago, they changed ownership, and the Tan Tan Men is not as great.

After a year, we decided to come back and try it again. Menya RAIZO removed my fave ramen, so I decided to get the Spicy Miso Ramen, which was surprisingly good. I recommend skipping the gyoza and takoyaki. However, if you like spicy ramen for rainy days, this place hits the spot.

Best Cheesecake in Vancouver

It's my birthday long weekend celebration and after a lovely lunch with the family, we went to Trees Organic Coffee for coffee and lovely cheesecake,

Best Poutine from Edible Canada

I'm celebrating my birthday with the family today. I invited my parents and siblings for lunch at one of the best places in Granville Island, Edible Canada.

I love their Duck Poutine, but today I decided to try Seafood Chowder and Buttermilk Fried Chicken. My recommendation skip the chowder but definitely get the poutine and fried chicken. I actually think the Buttermilk Fried Chicken will go well with waffles on their brunch menu. Just a thought.

If you're a tourist in Granville Island and have decided to eat at Edible Canada, definitely go for the Duck Poutine.
