Dinner at Whole Foods Restaurant

I know. I know. Whole Foods is a grocery store. However, I just discovered a couple days ago that they have a "restaurant" inside the Cambie branch.

Essentially, you can either ask the friendly employees of Whole Foods to get you food from the fridge case (not sure what it's called), or you can use the containers/plate in the buffet like station.

They have many choices from a variety of soup and salad, entrees and side dishes, and more. They also have a whole keto section.

How much does it cost? $2.95 per gram. I had way too much fun getting food, and I'm kinda hoping to get some more. I tried mostly vegetarian dishes and food from the keto section. If you are craving keto food in Vancouver, drop by Whole Foods grocery food area/restaurant.

Dinner at Subway

I can't even remember the last time I went to Subway before tonight. There are two Subway branches less than a kilometre from our place. We decided to try the branch going west. It was surprisingly busy at dinner time. I've never seen so many people at Subway at the same time, so I'm pleased for the branch owner.

Tonight, we tried Chipotle Steak & Guac grilled wrap and Turkey Mighty Melt. I didn't enjoy the melt as much as I thought I would but that beef and guacamole is a good combination.

For dessert, we shared a Chocolate Lava cookie.

Dinner at Masa Japanese Restaurant

It's the first Monday of 2020 which means a lot of employees are back to work. It's a crazy, long day filled with meetings and I needed a pick me up in the form of my favourite Japanese curry.

Assorted Curry (I got too excited and started eating before taking a photo)

Chicken Curry which was surprisingly good

Spicy Chorizo Jack Breakfast Sandwich from Starbucks

We decided to have late breakfast after Sunday Mass today at Starbucks inside Indigo a couple blocks from our place.

Spicy Chorizo Jack is my fave breakfast sandwich from Starbucks

Lunch at Triple O

I haven't been to Triple O in a long time!

I'm pleasantly surprised to see that they have Chicken & Waffle, which I, of course, got. Meanwhile, hubby got the Original Burger with Cheese.

Chicken and Waffle
Menu Description: Our Buttermilk Chicken patty topped with naturally smoked bacon, lightly-spiced maple syrup, aged Canadian cheddar cheese, and our signature mayo sandwiched between two locally-made Belgian-style waffles.

The buttermilk chicken was crunchy and flavourful. You can never go wrong with the delicious bacon and cheddar cheese combo. The waffle is dense, which is expected coming from a fast food place. Overall, I'll try this again.

Got too excited, so we started eating the Original Burger with Cheese
Menu Description: 100% fresh Canadian beef, crisp iceberg lettuce, fresh vine-ripened tomatoes, secret Triple "O" sauce, two slices of cheese and our signature pickle on top.

You cannot go wrong with the Original Burger from Triple O. We keep coming back to this deliciousness. Since my parents live near a Triple O branch, they love Triple "O" Tuesdays when the Original Burgers is just $4.49.

Lunch delivery from Pizza Hut for NFL Playoffs

Hanging out at my parent's place to watch the NFL Playoff games today. We ordered the Triple Treat Box from Pizza Hut.

Congratulations to both the Houston Texans and Tennessee Titans on the playoff win! We can't wait for tomorrow's games.

Dinner at Benkei Ramen

We were in the area of West Broadway at Cambie and thought of having dinner at Benkei Ramen because it has been almost a year since we last ate here.

I got a set with the Akaoni Ramen Deluxe + Side Beef Curry Rice.

Is a Big Mac with bacon still a Big Mac?

Hubby and I were walking around the neighbourhood and playing Pokemon Go on this beautiful Wednesday when we saw this ad from McDonald's.

We went on a discussion about whether it's #stillabigmac or #notabigmac.
