So – the old Rich Ocean Seafood Restaurant has re-opened. Apparently, the story was that Rich Ocean used to be Cantonese food (I had eaten here before), and then changed to be Pekingese/Northern Chinese food (my apologies if I have categorized this wrong, but it was a person from China who told me [...]

Dai Tung Chinese Restaurant – Vancouver, BC
November 21st, 2009 · 1 Comment · Asian, Chinese, Kid-friendly, Vancouver
Dinner on a Friday night to celebrate a special birthday – we went out to Dai Tung. Perhaps the subtleties of Chinese restaurants are somewhat lost on me, but they have a tendency to have similar food, a similar look inside, and similar service. I’m not saying by any stretch that they’re all [...]

In desperate need for new, savoury, good asian food we found this place online and decided to hit it up on (yet) another rainy vancouver night. Oddly enough, I have no idea what this place is called. On the door and on the menu, it [...]

Kintaro Ramen – Vancouver

Some young lady once asked, “Can one desire too much of a good thing?”. She had obviously never been to Kintaro – and also probably hadn’t left the restaurant uncomfortably full – like really, “I need to walk”, “I can barely breathe”, “my legs don’t work so well”-kind-of-full. [...]

Simply Thai – Vancouver
October 7th, 2009 · No Comments · Asian, Thai, Vancouver
Situated in trendy Yaletown, which has its share of restaurants that usually range from bad to worse (with a few exceptions like Cioppino’s and Rodney’s Oyster House), I really wasn’t expecting to find good Thai food. Good Thai food is notoriously hard stuff to find; after living in Toronto for [...]
