On the second day of Chinese New Year my true love gave to me, the “Year of the Dragon” Afternoon Tea! It may not be traditional, but it’s something new, modern and still festive to the New Year. Finish with a Matcha Fortune Cookie!

I could smell “hipster, but don’t call me hipster” from across the street. It’s creative comfort food with a twist, but I was slightly more inspired by the concept and menu descriptions than I was with the outcome of some of the dishes. Still a fun spot though!

The food isn’t fancy or creative, so it might not be as exciting or interesting, but it is simple and authentic. The menu makes it one of the more traditional izakayas I’ve been to so far with reasonable prices and portions.
It offers sweet and savoury Japanese style crepes, which were basically poor imitations of French crepes with some Japanese toppings. The only thing I would come back for is the soft serve ice cream, but I’d ask for it in a waffle cone.

It’s the 10th Annual Dine Out Vancouver from January 20 – February 5, 2012. I don’t know if it really needs any explanation, but it’s basically a food festival featuring 231 restaurants offering a set menu for $18, $28 or $38.
