Whenever we visit Seattle, we always have the tendency to eat lunch late because we’d always have a big breakfast. We had a late lunch at Cafe Presse this time knowing most items here are small and we won’t be overly stuffed by dinner time.
A couple weekends ago we stopped by 8 oz Burger Bar‘s happy hour to get some drinks and snacks. The happy hour has a $2, $4 $6, $8 menu. Everything from $2 garlic fries, rainer beer, to $8 burger & fries combo.
Once again we were invited by Vaneats to try out their newest dining package at Suika. Suika is a great izakaya restaurant outside of downtown, having already been there before, I was quite excited to try this dining pass.
Healthy Monkey is a little cafe in South Surrey serving organic deli and super foods. Interested in seeing what they got, I made my way out there for brunch.
Neptune Seafood Restaurant is the newest Chinese restaurant in Surrey Central. I visited on their opening day for dim sum, and quickly learned that this was a branch of their Richmond location. The atmosphere is very much like a typical Chinese restaurant in Richmond, very fancy, and grand, probably the first of its kind in Surrey.
Wild Wing, a popular franchise restaurant in Ontario, opened it’s first BC location in Surrey a couple weeks ago. This place is really good for watching sports because there have lots of TVs all around the restaurant. We were there for UFC 159, and were super lucky to be seated right away at the packed restaurant; totally walked it at the right time.
I’ve wanted to try Emilio Finatti Sicilian Pizza for a long time, but I’m hardly ever in White Rock, and when I’m in White Rock I’m usually right along the water. Emilio Finatti is a small pizza shop away from the pier, but they serve awesome pizza.
After a nice run at Tynehead Park, we needed some good food to recover. Sushi Zen is about 10 minutes away from that area and kind of on the way home. It was an awesome choice.
A while ago I came across a food blog‘s post on Mini corn dog muffins. I thought they were fun snacks so I bookmarked the link and figured I’d make it someday. My version of the recipe is sort of the cheater version of the original’s, and I was able to make a dozen of these in just 15 minutes including prep time.
This weekend we had some really tasty Korean food at Good Friends in Coquitlam. Starving and in a hurry for lunch, my friends and I ordered Rice cake with Ramen, Soft Tofu Soup, Bibimbap, and Seafood Pancake.
We’ve been to quite a few of the Tom Douglas restaurants in Seattle over the past couple years, and have loved each one of them. This time we needed a place to eat for brunch, and Dahlia Lounge was surprisingly available.
Another weekend, another beer sampler. We were in Seattle this past weekend visiting our friend, and McMenamins is right across the street.
