Watei Japanese Restaurant located at Shop 133 134A & 136C 1/F Cityu One Plaza City One Sha Tin in Hong Kong
On my first day coming back to Hong Kong, we ate at Watei Japanese Restaurant for an early dinner (which fit well because I was experiencing jet lag and highly exhausted after an hour or so into the dinner). Watei Japanese Restaurant is located at Shop 133, 134A & 136C, 1/F, Cityu One Plaza, City One in Sha Tin. Continue reading
Potato Noodle Soup of Bai located at 8333 Kennedy Road, Unit 1077 in Markham
Even though I didn’t enjoy my first visit to Potato Noodle Soup of Bai, when I found out that they had opened a brand new full-service restaurant at Langham Square and we were conveniently in the area looking for dinner, we decided to walk in to try it out. The first location of Potato Noodle Soup of Bai appears in the food court on the second level of Pacific Mall. For those of you who want to read the review I did of that location, you can click here.

EdgeWalk on the CN Tower, Toronto. August 2011
In the summer of 2011 when the CN Tower first introduced its EdgeWalk program, my friend Rachel and I were one of the first to brave together to try this first “walk on the edge” on the 356-metre high tower, the highest free-standing tower in Toronto. We were literally walking, leaning over, peering beyond the city, on the edge! 😛 Continue reading
0109 Dessert & Chocolate located at 2190 McNicoll Avenue, Unit 109 in Scarborough
Here’s a short and sweet blog post; get it? 😛 0109 Dessert & Chocolate is a dessert shop in Scarborough (next to Chako and the first location of Magic Noodle) at the intersection of Kennedy Road and McNicoll Avenue that specializes in Swiss premium chocolate from Lindt and homemade gelato. I’ve heard a lot about this dessert shop and finally had the chance to go! Continue reading
“FAME is FAKE
and it FADEs
and if you don’t know that,
then you’re F_ _Ked”.
Lol, sorry to use abrasive language, but that’s the quote I heard long ago that cemented to me what “fame” really is. It’s stuck with me all these years and it’s true. Fame is a mental state; doesn’t last long, and isn’t actually real. Continue reading
Most of you know that I’m a ‘blog nerd’ for blogging every single day — publishing a new post every single day. I’ve been doing so for pretty much 2-3 years (so far the newest record is blogging daily for 137 days/4 months 15 days — from April 21, 2016 until now). I hit a realization recently. I’m done my backlog. I no longer have restaurant reviews lining up for me to post. In terms of recent backlog, that’s done. But I still have a lot of travel posts that I drafted up, intending to be posted with photos to share…. that I wanted to keep posting because I wanted to finish THAT backlog. But today, I realize I don’t want to do that anymore… Continue reading
Baskin Robbins located at Cachet Centre at 9255 Woodbine Avenue, Unit 22 in Markham
This is going to be a super low-key blog post. I haven’t been to Baskin Robbins for ice cream for many years (I remember enjoying a wonderful ice cream cake from them when I was a child). They’re a popular ice cream parlour franchise that has been around for many decades all around Canada and the United States. Almost everyone knows them by name! Continue reading

There is a brand new Thai ice cream rolls shop in Scarborough called QQ Thai Ice Cream! This past Wednesday, Sweven Media held a preview media event for some local foodies to allow us to try their ice cream rolls and so I had the pleasure to try them out.

CNE, Toronto. September 2010
The Canadian National Exhibition is an annual unofficial ‘end of summer’ event where millions of Torontonians and visitors at the Exhibition Place go for carnie rides and outrageous food. This photo is a flashback to the summer of 2010 when I attended CNE again for the first time in a long while and I saw these crazy fun mirrors where it distorts your reflection to induce lots of giggles and funny faces. Continue reading
The Captain’s Boil located at 671 College Street in Toronto
I have fallen in love with eating seafood boils and after this recent visit to The Captain’s Boil, it just reconfirms how delicious this messy hands-on way of eating seafood is. The Captain’s Boil has been growing steadily throughout Canada and not only now has locations in Toronto (where they first started in November of 2015) but also in Vancouver and Montreal as well. Their fifth location in Toronto just opened up on 671 College Street in Little Italy. Continue reading
