After dinner with Jenn and having a lovely catch-up, I met up with Sze Chieh to also have a long-awaited catch up! I haven’t seen this girl in years and it was amazing to see her in person again. I loved the instant rapport and connection we had and our conversation flowed so well! I love having that immediate connection with friends! 🙂
I’ve been to Wanda’s Belgian Waffles before — twice actually! Continue reading

Jennifer and I had a lovely chat here at Scaddabush Italian Kitchen & Bar over dinner. For a Friday night at 6 p.m., there sure were a lot of people already! The restaurant was dimly lighted and very packed. Scaddabush has two locations and we were at the Yonge street location; very close to Dundas Square and College Subway Station. Continue reading
Located inside Fairview Mall (1800 Sheppard Ave E) in North York
Interestingly, to this day, I still have not stepped inside an Aroma Espresso Bar even though they have numerous locations and are even situated inside shopping malls (oh, right, online shopping trumps brick and mortar stores now) :p. Continue reading
Located inside First Markham Place (3255 Highway 7 East) at the food court
I have to highlight this little popup restaurant/shop which is in the food court of First Markham Place. You wouldn’t think food court food to be outstanding (also this place), but this place called Yan’s Cook is a place I return to time and time again. Continue reading
Fancy Chinese Cuisine located at 7750 Kennedy Road, Unit 4 in Markham
The name of this Chinese restaurant is called Fancy Chinese Cuisine. It reminds me of the song “oh, you fancy huh?” XD. I’ve been to this restaurant many times and they have also changed names several times over the years. It’s not uncommon to see this done for Chinese restaurants. I think most people know why… Continue reading

During our one-hour lunch break from the WebCenters training with Greg, we drove across the street to where Pho Pad Thai was. It’s a restaurant in the same plaza as Hong Kong Style Cafe and Mi-Ne Sushi and is run by Chinese people.
We sat in a table of four on this Saturday afternoon and the place was fairly packed. Continue reading
The Great Wall of China, China. July 2013
When I saw the theme for this week’s photo challenge of “wall“, I immediately knew I had to share this photo of the Great Wall of China. Incidentally, on our trip, we took a picture where we made a human wall on the Great Wall of China. Ironic? Yes. Funny? Yes. Fun? Definitely yes! Continue reading
Post-dinner entertainment — memorable XD
Day 4 dinner was a bit rushed and chaotic. Since none of the big group is able to sit and eat together, it was suggested that we go to the open-seating Black Pearl Restaurant at 7 p.m. in order to eat together. However, when we got there at 7, it was packed and there wasn’t any room for us. Continue reading

My friend Juliana was able to connect me to her friend Marina (who we’ve actually met before 3 years ago) who connected us with her friend Pearl who is connected with the restaurant called Azumi in Port Union (see how associations lead one to another?) 🙂 . It is a Japanese restaurant that serves sushi, bento box, and typical Japanese fare. Continue reading

After our tea-infused lunch at Ten Ren’s, TK brought me to Duo Patisserie & Cafe where we tried out some delicious desserts and drinks.
Duo Patisserie & Cafe is a cafe that is the epitome of modern vibe, simplicity, and uptown chic. You won’t find young kids or teenagers here. Continue reading
