Different colours & sizes of chocolate designs are available.

It was quite late when we got there, about 45 min before closing, so the goodies were almost gone.

This is one of my favourites – Passion Fruit cake.

I think this is called Dark Chocolate Gateux.

Chop Steakhouse, Richmond on Saturday

Chop, chop, chop.

This past Saturday, I had a chance to be with my parents and my sisters for a rare old-time family dinner at Chop Steakhouse & Bar in Richmond.

Great atmosphere, and the food was great.  I think the last time I dined at a restaurant was about two years ago, a very long time indeed.

I had the Experience dinner set, which came with a choice of two kinds of salad or two kinds of soup, a choice of sides, and a main entrée.  I chose the fries and top sirloin, and I had the seafood chowder soup.

Lunch under the September sun

September 26, 2013, four days after the fall equinox.  We are treated with a 18-degree sunny day with few clouds in sight.  Leaves are still green, though some have already fallen to the ground to introduce the change in season.

City Market in North Vancouver

image

在家附近開了一家叫City Market的超市,是加拿大公司Loblaws的。趕上了今天(其實是昨天星期五)的正式開幕,便和老婆女兒去晃ㄧ晃。

這是。。。我也不知是什麼,但還是不錯吃,店員解釋這是用小麥跟少許的碎粉圓製成,吃起來就像是米果的感覺。

巷內簡餐

當了二十多年的移民,最懷念的不外乎是自己家鄉的食物,那ㄧ份味道,那ㄧ份情感。只可惜自己住所離溫哥華及列治文有些距離,要想解饞也不是十幾分鐘內可以做到的。

巷內簡餐。

好名字。這家台灣人開的家庭式餐廳,坐落于西溫(West Vancouver) Marine Drive跟14街 (14th Street)的Village Square內。店面不大, 可是煮出來的東西卻是風味十足 我最常叫的就是豬排飯 但鹹酥雞飯及雞排飯也是很好吃的喔

老闆娘服務好,態度也很親切,有興趣的朋友可以去試試喔!

Potluck & Gift Exchange

The holiday season is upon us once again.  It reminds us the importance of family, friends, and sharing.

At work, we have an annual tradition for a Christmas Potluck and Gift Exchange.  We get to enjoy great food, talk among colleagues, and immerse in the holiday blessings.

I treasure the moments tremendously  especially after the horrific and tragic event unfolded in the US on Friday.  I just think we are very luck to have the time to spend with close friends and families.

May there be more peace and less violence on Earth, and among humans.

Granville Island Daytrip

Finally, a Sunday that is free of work.  We all went to Granville Island again (see previous posts here, here, and here).  We went to the Kids Market, mainly due to the Christmas time and we were also looking for gift ideas.

The inside is festively decorated.

Lots of Christmas trees, snowmen, reindeer.  We also went upstairs and found out that there were arcade games and party rooms.

An underview of the Granville Street Bridge.

It was almost lunch time, and we were looking for something to eat when we stumbled upon this, again.

Kaisereck Sausages, Sandwiches & Salads

Putting the caramelized onions and sauerkraut…

I know, I know, you must be expecting the finished products.  Well, what can I say, can’t really snapping pictures, eating, and blogging at the same time.  I don’t like to eat cold food, so…

Next time perhaps~
