Earlier this week, nine of us played another escape room called LockQuest. By now, most people know about room escape games and how they’re currently a top pasttime since they’re fun, challenging, and involve lots of teamwork. LockQuest is located directly across from the Summerhill subway station on Yonge Street in Toronto which makes it very convenient to get to by public transit. Continue reading
Markham. January 2015
It is definitely cliché that the first Weekly Photo Challenge of the year has the theme of “new”. No matter, I’m up for it. As always! I got a good one for this week. At first, I wanted to see what was the first picture that I took of 2015 but when I looked in my photos, I realized it wasn’t so much a picture as an informational one, so that option was scrapped. Instead, I chose something that is still a rather good idea. 😀 Continue reading

Happy first day of 2015! Since today marks the first day of the calendar, it also marks the first day being back from being backlogged from completing all my restaurant reviews from my HK trip — I’m back to blogging about Canadian restaurants again! 😀
I really didn’t expect to blog about this restaurant again. I previously went to Yang’s Chinese Cuisine to have dim sum with my family. The food was average and the place was nice. I expected dinner service to be about the same. Oh boy was I wrong! Continue reading
2014 — many firsts and memories!
So, today’s the very last day of 2014 — December 31, 2014. We’ll never see this day again and never feel the same way we did on this day. Before I get too far into how every day actually passes us just like this (a *snap*), let me recount the amazing things that happened this year: Continue reading
Wow! It’s the second-last day of the year already!!! Do you know what that means? For me, that means recounting what happened in the past 357 days and posting it here for me to reflect on. But before that happens, WordPress provided a neat little prezzie for us this year by accumulating all our stats for the year and summarizing it for us. Continue reading

A week ago, eleven friends and I went to play this newer room escape adventure called “Trapped in a Room with a Zombie” courtesy of Room Escape Adventures. I first heard about this from my friend after we played the “Inception” room at Xscaper Arts about how there was an escape room that had a real live person dressed up as a zombie that was chained up while you tried to solve the clues in order to get out of the room. Continue reading

The final restaurant review blog of a restaurant I ate at in Hong Kong from my autumn 2014 trip is Nra Trang. I ate at this restaurant a few days after I arrived in Hong Kong for lunch with my mom and aunt but for some reason, the photos from this visit have completely disappeared from my phone.

Walnut cake, South Korea. December 2011
Winter is here! That means that we are all searching for warmth, whether it be a toasty cuddle under the blankets on cold night, intertwining fingers next to an open fire’s glow, the feeling you get when that special someone whispers something goosebumps-inducing in your ear, or a simple sweet snack that warms your heart, warmth is something we all love and can’t get enough of. 🙂 Continue reading

For our last meal in HK on our fall trip in 2014, we visited an extremely popular restaurant in Tsun Wan. It’s so popular that you must ensure you go there early before it opens at 5:30 p.m. in order to line up to get a table. My friend Jennifer recommended this to me, saying that ‘chicken pot’ places are all the rage now in Hong Kong. Upon hearing that, I knew I immediately had to get myself to it before I left HK (food blogger that wants to stay ahead of the ‘trends’). Continue reading

For noontime lunch on a Friday, we headed to another one of Jennifer’s recommendations: Butao. It’s a Japanese ramen restaurant that has chains located all around Hong Kong. I knew it was a ramen shop but other than that, didn’t know what to expect of the place. Continue reading
