Posted on January 7, 2019 by stenoodie

January 7, 2019:

This was my first time trying MOS Burger! Apparently, MOS Burger is a fast food chain hailing from Japan and after McDonald’s, it is the second largest fast food chain in Japan! Their name “MOS” stands for “Mountain, Ocean, Sun”.

Ying Kee Restaurant 英記茶餐廳 in Mong Kok

Posted on January 7, 2019 by stenoodie

Ying Kee Restaurant 英記茶餐廳 (32 Ki Lung St, Mong Kok).

January 7, 2019:

It was our first full day in HK and of course I wanted to have a traditional Hong Kong style breakfast at a cha chaang teng. 😀

Jet lag held us captive and I was fully awake at 4 a.m. Thus, why not start the day early and fight against my circadian rhythm? I looked up breakfast spots which were open at this ungodly hour and Ying Kee Restaurant popped up which was a 13-minute walk from our place and which served the traditional HK breakfast fare.

魚鱻魚湯專門店

Posted on January 6, 2019 by stenoodie

January 6, 2019:

After the bowl of dan dan noodles, we headed straight for a fish soup noodles place called 魚鱻魚湯專門店 we had seen while exploring what was offered in the area. This type of cuisine is my mom’s territory. While I love the fish soup itself, my mom loves the stringy rice noodles.

Shanghainese Food at 三和滋味館

三和滋味館.

First meal in Hong Kong on this trip! 😀 I was feeling for soupy noodles but didn’t want wonton or cross bridge or thick noodles. And so after we walked around the block looking at the restaurant choices, we stopped in here for a bowl of dan dan noodles with fried pork chops (HK $58). This restaurant served Shanghainese food.

My Year in Review: 2018

Posted on December 31, 2018 by stenoodie

My 2018

This year — what can I say? 2018 was the year that the most ever happened to me, in terms of positive amazingness/major life milestones and health-wise.

First of all, before I get into the bulk of what happened this year, I like to gloat about the trips that I had the privilege to take this year. This year, in February, I got to travel to Yellowknife, Northwest Territories on a five-day trip with my extended family members to go dog sledding, “ice fishing”, and view the Aurora Borealis. This was an amazing bucket-list travel spot and Continue reading →

The Beyond Meat Burger at A&W

Posted on December 30, 2018 by stenoodie

A&W located in Hillcrest Mall at 9350 Yonge St in Richmond Hill

December 21, 2018: Ever since hearing about the Beyond Meat Burger being offered at A&W, I had wanted to try it. (Technically, I had already tried this pure vegan pea-protein-beet patty before when I tried the Power Burger from Aroma Espresso Bar since they’re made with the one and same patty, but the toppings and assembly of the burger would be different.)

Customizable Noodle and Rice Sets in Soup at Okotte Ramen

Posted on December 29, 2018 by stenoodie

Okotte Ramen located at 9688 Leslie St in Richmond Hill

December 20, 2018: This was actually my second time dining in at Okotte Ramen with the first time for lunch about a month ago. Okotte Ramen is located on Lesile Street north of 16th Avenue in Richmond Hill and operates similarly to Deer Garden or Lucky Noodle (for about $10, you get a customizable noodle soup or rice in soup with two toppings and $2.75 snacks on the side). Thus, even though their name is “Okotte Ramen”, they don’t only offer ramen at all. They also serve rice dishes and Continue reading →

Paintball Nation in Mississauga

Posted on December 20, 2018 by stenoodie

Dec 16, 2018:

I took time out this weekend from my mountain of transcripts to indulge in a game of paintball. (Technically, I ended up finishing everything in time but if I hadn’t gone, I would have finished everything in a more comfortable time frame with less stress, but c’est la vie and these moments with friends are priceless and fleeting — it’s always worth the sacrifice.)
