Thierry

We decided to get mother deer a cake from Thierry for her birthday. Typically I’m the one who chooses the cake but this year, it was brother deer’s responsibility because he worked downtown that day. He decided to get the passion fruit cake that was filled with passion fruit mousse, white genoise and passion fruit […]

Sugarholic cafe

Grayson and I decided that we wanted to try eating at some place new in Richmond after our long day of shopping at Richmond Center. We usually always eat at the same complex so this time we decided to eat at Aberdeen instead. Yes…we went from one mall to another…just for the sake of eating. […]

Aotoya blue door + coffee monster

Grayson and I went to Aotoya blue door for lunch last weekend and it was quite the experience!

Camellia Tea and Coffee

I’ve been doing a lot of traveling these past couple of weeks and because of that, I haven’t been feeling like dining out lately. I mean, while I was away, I was eating out for 2-3 meals every single day and quite frankly, I’ve been wanting to stay home for a nice home cooked meal. […]

Roundel Cafe + Estea

Oracle and I were supposed to go to Roundel cafe a couple of months ago but there was a line out the door so we opted to go somewhere else to eat instead. But, I wasn’t about to move on and not try food at Roundel so I went there again a different day. I […]

Marulilu revisited + Kingspark

As promised, I finally got around to bringing Grayson over to Marulilu cafe for tea time on a sunny Sunday. Since it was tea time, I decided to get a lavender latte. I haven’t had a latte in a while so I just had to get one plus, I’ve seen lavender lattes all over the […]

Basho, Platform 7 and Anna’s cake house

Sigh, oh Basho…how I adore munching your food. I’ve been here twice in the past for girly dates and after each visit I gush and rave about it to Grayson. He’s been wanting to come here with me for a while now but since I usually see him in the evening which is around the […]
