Three adventures for Thanksgiving dinner… that isn’t turkey.

By Mijune

Turkey, turkey, turkey! I love turkey and I love Thanksgiving, but once in a while it’s nice to switch things up. Besides, traditions are meant to be broken, and to be honest, we broke Thanksgiving traditions long time ago anyway.

Whistler, BC – Summertime in Whistler and eats on Main Street

By Mijune

Whistler in the summer is so underrated. It actually attracts more tourists in the summer than the winter, given all the festivals, and there are a ton of summer activities and sports. While I’m not really the “active” type, I went zip lining, summer bobsledding, and scootering.

Follow Me Foodie: A trip though BC’s Napa Valley

By Mijune

It’s a great weekend getaway and you don’t have to worry about getting taxed on the boxes of wine you’ll want to bring back. I recently explored the area a bit more as a guest of Tourism Kelowna on behalf of Food Bloggers of Canada, and here are a few things I recommend from my last visit.

Akakuro-Buta (Japanese style Canadian Pork) at Secret Location

By Mijune

If you have a Western palate, then Secret Location is likely where you will enjoy the Akakuro-Buta pork most out of the 3 restaurants featuring it. I liked it the most, but not because I have a Western palate, but I thought it was well executed.
