A sneak peek at what’s to come! Think of this vlog series as “Food in the City” or FOODIE in the City from a food blogger’s perspective… who is me! In the shoes of a food blogger…

Nove Italiano is a “hidden gem” serving inventive Italian dining at The Palms in Las Vegas. The chandeliers were made of Swarovski crystals, but I kind of felt like I was having dinner in Cher’s dining room, waiting for Purple Rain to come on and a guest appearance from Prince.

Welcome to my final post on Chinese New Year! What’s a celebration without baked goods or desserts? A boring one! Saint Germain Bakery is one of the gourmet Chinese style bakeries in Metro Vancouver. They also have a special Chinese New Year section right now!

My 1st Chinese New Year dinner of this year! What better way to celebrate the Year of the Rabbit then by eating one!? Just kidding! There was 6 of us, so we did the logical thing and had a set menu for 8. Here’s a look at a traditional Chinese New Year menu.

I’ll take you to the candy shop! Ew! No! Not the way 50 Cent would! And I’m not talking about that rapper, I’m talking about this wrapper! I’m going to take you to the candy shop through my computer screen! Welcome to Chinese Candy 101.
Chinese New Year is on February 3rd and I’m super excited for all the food… and festivities! Aberdeen Centre will be hosting a Chinese New Year fair Jan. 28- Feb. 3, and what warmer way to welcome the Chinese New Year then to start off with a cup of Chinese tea?

This is probably the most unassuming hole in the wall I’ve been to in Vancouver, BC. Little did I know that this little dive of a diner offered up fine dining cuisine at dirt cheap prices. It offers everything and anything from casual breakfast diner food to Chinese food and gourmet European cuisine.

On this occasion I decided to keep things new and fresh. So along with checking out the new White Spot location I also decided to try their new menu items. Hello Chef Bishop & Chuck Currie!
