This is simply a journal of my food adventures, mainly in Vancouver, BC. Basically, a place for me to live out my long-time fantasy of being a restaurant reviewer. I hope that readers will find the reviews useful. I will include random bits about other foodie adventures like grocery and cookware shopping, cooking/baking projects, cooking classes, and eventually I’ll add a cartoon – The Adventures of Ha Gow, my little Chinese dim sum shrimp-filled dumpling dude. Foodies of the city, unite!

We Ate On the Floor, and Drank Out of Flower Pots...But We Loved It All...Name That Restaurant!
Who will be the first to name the fabulous Vancouver restaurant where we were able to do that? Full review coming soon to a blog near you...But first, have a guess!
We have a winner! Thanks, Tai. You named that restaurant in less than 24 hours. Their drink special, "The Mighty Horsemen" were served in ceramic plant pots. More details to come in the full review.
Dang ...... Tai beat me to it. Last time I was at the A.H. the group at the next table ordered the humungous Mighty Horsemen that they shared drinking from (hmmm ..... public health violations ?!?). Looked cool, but I wouldn't do it myself.
SO, can we win prizes for future quiz questions ? Nancy aren't ya gonna give out prizes for local restaurants so your dedicated and keen readers can be better educated about local eating scene ? ;-)
Yah, I thought about giving a prize, but didn't come up with one in time. I will see what I can wrangle up in the future. :) But keep in mind that I really want to protect my secret blogging identity when I'm dining out, so approaching restaurants for gift certificates/coupons will be a bit tricky. But you dedicated and keen (albeit occassionally demanding) readers should definitely be rewarded...at the very least with the satisfaction of displaying your wealth of Vancouver restaurant knowledge as Tai and yourself have in this teaser/trailer for the next post. Check out the Daters' Corner link, btw. I haven't used any of the coupons yet, but I put the link on there for y'all as there's a bunch of 2 for 1 deals on there. The webmaster there has done the footwork to get some deals.
Hee hee! That's SO funny! Hmmm...what flavour was the cake? How about one of those red velvet cakes with the bright red colour inside? Cutting into one of those could be a bit disturbing for some.

The Afghan Horseman?
(the bit about 'eating on the floor' caught me eye...not sure 'bout the flower pots though)
