A while back I wanted to try a new dining experience. I heard about a place called Dark Table where you eat in the dark. You would lose you sense of sight and experience meals with your other senses. When we arrived at the restaurant, we all waited outside and a waiter came out to…

Beer Braised Beef
I was given some beer and if you know me, I don’t prefer drinking beer. I didn’t know what to do with it and it just sat in the fridge getting flat. Growing up, I was taught not to waste food. Even if it is something that I did not like. My dad would say,…
Beer BBQ Sauce
Now I’m not a huge beer fan (and yes I’ve had my fair share of different types) but I enjoy cooking with it. I was recently given a growler of beer. Not knowing what to do with all of it and knowing that growlers do not last very long, I decided to make some beer…
Review: Pizza Ludica
Pizza Ludica is such a fun place to have great pizza and play board games. This restaurant is located in Vancouver, BC and is situated close to transportation. From the outside you wouldn’t have guessed the uniqueness of this place. The interior is brightly light and simple with lots of game themed decorations. Even this sign…

There is a bone broth bar. They also sell collagen shots and popsicles. (The popsicles were sold out so I didn’t get to…

Vancouver has gotten a lot of snow over the past couple of weeks and the weather doesn’t seem like it will let up. It’s cold out and the only way to keep warm is to make some Easy Beef Stew!! When I say easy, this is EASY! Start with 1 chopped medium sweet onion and…
Easy BBQ Pork Ribs
This is an easy oven baked BBQ pork rib recipe. I like to do this when I have a good chunk of time right before dinner. First start by placing the pork rib on a sheet of aluminum foil. You will need a large enough piece to wrap the entire rib. This will help keep…
Review: Hi Genki
Hi Genki is a hidden gem in Burnaby. It is located in a Nikkei Senior Home. They serve authentic Japanese cuisine in a cafeteria type setting. Upon entering the senior home, you would not have suspected it would be a restaurant. The only hint is the line up of patrons patiently waiting for seats. Large…
