Ramen Sanpachi has been on my to-visit list for a while now. Ever since I heard about my friends going there for the veggie ramen I have been waiting to go try it out. Ramen could be considered to be a pretty simple dish in the sense that it's easy to put together, but the prep work is where the skill lies. The most important ingredient is the soup base which takes a long time to cook up and that's usually never vegetarian, so ramen places are known to be not vegetarian friendly. I'm very glad to be a vancouverite that almost all types of restaurants now offer some kind of vegetarian option here.</div>

My sister in law was back in town and we were meeting up for lunch with a pregnant friend who out of the choices of ramen, thai and others, picked ramen :), so sanpachi we went. It was pretty quiet inside when we got there, just us and one other table. </div>

We all ordered the same thing, which is the only veggie ramen option on the menu and the soup base is made of veggie stock. We also added an egg to the ramen. I enjoyed my ramen, so did the other two ladies. There really aren't that many veggie ramen to compare with, or at least from what I have had, but I would still have to say it was just alright. However I'm really glad they have the option and hope to see more and try in the future.</div>

Heard from a friend about this new veggie pho place, thought I should go try it out and see what's different comparing to Chau Veggie Express. So finally I got a chance to go with my girl friends for a weekday lunch, and this is a few months ago by the way, I'm updating my blog in turtle speed :( While there is free street parking right in the front, nothing close was available when we were there, so we found parking behind the restaurant residential area and walked through a shortcut alley/vacant land beside the store. </div>

So we just ended up all ordering the same thing because everyone wanted soup noodle :) I thought it was good even though it is simpler than Chau's. The soup flavour is lighter for sure. The portion is pretty big, lots of noodles to fill you up. It's nice and clean inside and the service is great. I'll be coming back to try out more items on the menu next time :)</div>

Their service is friendly, but I actually didn't get to know about their veggie menu until the second time there. First time we just asked to have veggie versions prepared and the second time we mentioned we are all vegetarians and the waitress came back with the veggie menu and told us instead of the regular oyster sauce, they use mushroom sauce. It's always great to see a separate vegetarian menu and feel loved :D<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>

Everyone enjoyed their food and the meal portions are pretty large too. The place is not big but both times we were able to get seating for 4 or more people at the back no problem. Nice to have the back area to ourselves but the downside is it's by the kitchen and it gets very hot. It's definitely a nice little restaurant to dine at when you are in Kerrisdale. I will come back again for more veggie thai food for sure.<br />

I thought I have finished this and posted it already but apparently it has been sitting in my saved posts for months... So back in May I took my sis-in-law, niece and Korean twin sis to Waffle Gone Wild using this voucher I bought online. Everyone was busy on different days and finally we decided to go on a Tuesday, which I was wondering to myself at the time why I felt we couldn't agree on a day when Tues was wide open. And when we got there, I remembered why... they are closed on Tuesdays... I have checked their website before but after a bunch of rescheduling I forgot about their day-off. So we had to go back again the next day.</div>

Clean and cozy inside. We picked the sit by the end wall. The owner was very friendly and helpful that she kept coming by to ask if we needed any help and also explained to us what was included and not included on the menu with the voucher. For drinks we decided on getting two matcha latte, one hot chocolate and a bubble tea. </div>

For waffles we got strawberry, banana nutella, and one with ice cream, also a savory one with apple and cheese. We get to have one free add-on to each of our waffles. What we actually wanted was ice cream but I ordered mochi ice cream instead of real scoops of ice cream :( Somehow I misread mochi ice cream for matcha ice cream. But waffles were still yummy and mochi ice cream was good as always. We had a fun time enjoying our food and drinks and chatted away like we were the only table there. We will for sure come back again for more waffles and girl dates :)</div>

We have been ordering from Vancouver Veggi Pizza for a few times now since my friend mentioned it to us. Their big selling points for them are of course all vegetarian pizzas and that they use cheese without rennet. They also have specialty pizzas that are pretty cool like their paneer special. So one large pizza is $14 and the 2 for 1 deal is two large pizzas for $25. So far we are pretty happy with their pizzas. We have tried all the pizzas and have ordered Canadian pizza the most. I'm hoping to try the veggie burger sometimes in the future too :)</div>

Last week for a good friend's birthday, I thought we should go try out The Parker, another recently opened vegetarian restaurant in Vancouver. We weren't sure if we needed reservation but I was glad we did, because when we got there around 7:30pm, the place was pretty much packed. The restaurant is small, maybe 5 or so tables for 2 and then bar seats. </div>

We each got one of the none alcoholic drink they have, it was good :) After looking through the menu we decided to just get everything except the Ravioli. Since it's sharing style and on the bottom of the menu it says 5 plates for 2 people is suggested, 11 items sounded about right for 4 of us. </div>

In the beginning we were all thinking that we were probably going to be still hungry after all the dishes. We had three big guys and one hungry breastfeeding mom, but surprisingly we all felt pretty full afterwards. Chickpea fries, Sunchoke soup with Taro Chips, and Braised beans were the dishes we enjoyed the most after trying out all the items we ordered. We would definitely recommend ordering the chickpea fries and the soup. In fact the table next to us, who came in after us that looked like they had been there before, the only things they ordered were the fries and soup. They knew what to go for ;) <br />

We were lucky, happened to pick a beautiful sunny Saturday for our friend's baby shower. It was a surprise one too, we all arrived a little early at The Fish House in Stanley Park, waiting for her to show up. I didn't know if parking was easy or close, turned out there is a pay parking right by The Fish House and tennis courts.</div>

The service was great, the waiter was really nice and the restaurant atmosphere was quiet and comfortable, I certainly hope we weren't too loud. It was great for our gathering, I think everyone enjoyed the baby shower there. </div>

This is another very delayed post :P It was a girls night out last summer, we decided to try out Capstone at the Richmond location for more convenient parking. It was about 2/3 full when we arrived, only 2 people working at the restaurant that night so the service was a little slow. </div>

They didn't have all the flavours of ice cream that night, from the picture it looked like we had maybe 2 or 3 different flavours. I really enjoyed the ice cream in chocolate fondue, it was really really good. There were also biscuits, cheesecakes, fruits and breads. Definitely too much food for us. We had to pack a lot of leftovers home.<br />

This is from last summer, or even before that. Forgot exactly how I came across this place online, but I was surprised to see it offers more than one option of veggie donburi. Kita no Donburi is located on Seymour Street, across from Habour Centre. I met up with a friend who works downtown a few blocks away for lunch that day. </div>

Not that big inside, it was already full when we got there and we didn't really want to wait, so they asked if we would like take the table outside. There are two tables right outside. It was a bit weird eating outside as it was right on the sidewalk and we kept getting stared at by passersby.</div>

<span style="text-align: center;">I had the natto don and my friend ordered the veggie don and veggie roll. I thought their price is good but the portion is really not that big. It's okay for girls, but probably not enough for most guys. I was quite excited to try out their veggie dons, but I would have to say the food was just alright. However, if you've never had veggie dons before, this might be a better place to try it out since most restaurants don't have veggie dons and if they do, chances are they are really just vegetables on rice with soy sauce.</span><br />

Have been very busy for the last while, but I guess that's not really an excuse for not updating my blog. Well, hopefully I will be able to update more often again. A friend couple that's getting married is in town and last night with two more friends, we all met up for dinner. We got a table for 6 at Heirloom on 12th Avenue and Granville Street. Heirloom is one of the recently opened vegetarian fine dining restaurants in Vancouver. There is free street parking right outside the restaurant on 12th after 6pm, it's quite convenient. </div>

I ordered the Tempeh Reuben and the Blue Lemonade, and also got to try a bit of the Chili and Crepe. I didn't enjoy the lemonade too much, but the tempeh reuben was pretty good. The Chili was interesting because it came with rice(and corn chips) almost makes you feel like you're not eating chili when eating with rice. I had a bite of the crepe and I thought it was pretty good. Service was friendly and overall the food enjoyable. They have vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options, and they are also good with dietary restrictions. I would definitely go back again, but before I do, I would like to try out the other newly opened vegetarian restaurants first.<br />

Starbucks dude that was very nice and helpful with pretty good English. He gave us a piece of paper with instructions to set up wifi on iphones. Unfortunately we still weren't able to figure out how to get it working. We only figured out it had to go through or something to do with Softbank, a Japanese telecommunications company.<br />

I looked up some cake places beforehand to check out when we're in Japan. Harbs was one of them and it happened that there was one inside the department store near by our hotel. We actually wandered around the streets and saw the department store and just went in to see what's in there. It was late already when we got there so we decided to come back another day for the cakes.<br />

<br />
On our way back to the hotel, on the side of the street there was a small store with lights still up selling cylinder shaped cakes, Baumkuchen. Nyuto-Seika is the store name. I forgot if we picked one up that night or another day. I guess it will come up again in a later post if it was on a later day. I remembered it was a bit on the sweet side.<br />

We came here a few months ago for a birthday get together group dinner. I took a picture of the 4-person dinner combo because I think were planning on ordering it but didn't end up doing so. </div>

This is a long overdue post on Whole Vegetarian Restaurant. I'm guessing probably 90% of the vegetarian people in Vancouver know about this place already. It's been at the same location since forever. Well, it used to be Bo Kong Vegetarian Restaurant, which had another location in Richmond, but both of them closed down maybe a year or two ago and Whole Vegetarian Restaurant (Same owners as Whole Vegetarian Food Inc) took over. Their menu pretty much stayed the same. (From the rumors I've heard, it was something to do with increasing the lease so Bo Kong had to move out :P Bo Kong has now reopened at a new location tho, called Po Kong. I will post about it soon too) </div>

We usually come here for dim sum now, there's just not that many veggie dim sum choices around town anymore, it makes me sad :( Anyways, the pics I took were from a dinner we had a while back. I will do another update next time I go there for dim sum again.</div>

Lower right is one of my usual favourite dishes, Sizzling Chow Mein, if I have the craving for Cantonese style crispy noodles. It's slightly pricier than other crispy noodles on the menu because it's served on a hot iron plate. If you haven't had it before, it's a good choice to go with, but otherwise I think other crispy noodles are as good :) Middle top dish should be Bean Curd Skin Roll with Black Sauce.</div>

Another one of our usual favourite dishes - Tasty Fresh Shiitake Mushroom. I guess the name really doesn't tell much about the dish other than it's shiitake mushrooms :P It's basically deep fried shiitake mushrooms with sweet and sour flavour. It's really good, I recommend it. </div>

This is from a couple weeks ago from one of the dim sum runs. I felt like congee that day, so I ordered the Enoki Mushrrom and Bean Curd Skin Congee. The large is about 5 bowls and small about 3, that's what the waiter told us when we asked about the size. It was so good we finished up right away and I decided to order another small Corn Congee because both my sister-in-law and niece enjoyed the congee a lot too. So I will hopefully have some more dim sum soon and have the updates up after :)</div>

I always drive by or walk by here, but this is first time trying it out. Basically just follow the signs in the store - first get a cup, with or without waffle cone, then you move onto the frozen yogurt section where you can try out first with the small paper cups provided on the side. Each machine has 2 flavours, you can either have them separately or have them mixed. </div>

I stayed off the toppings this time because I've picked enough mixed flavours of frozen yogurts. Some of them are pretty sweet, so it's nice to be able to try a little out before you decide to go with them. I think I will stick with one or two flavours and try on toppings next time. It's a little happy place with lots of smiling kids enjoying their sweets and frozen yogurts :)</div>

Now years (I think... already right?) later I'm finally here to try their food. We actually tried to do it once before but the wait was too long we gave up and went else where. This time, there's only three of us and we showed up around 11am. There were only about 4 people in front of us waiting. I didn't know you are supposed to put your name down on the chalkboard waiting list by the door. So I stood there for a while before I finally decided to ask the people in front of me if they were waiting too and they were nice enough to tell me to put my name down :P<br />

I would say there is enough veggie stuff to pick from the breakfast/brunch menu. At least one or two items from each section. I was gonna get a veggie sandwich but stopped by my friend. We ended up picking three vegetarian omelettes to share. Still no portobello mushroom burger for me because it's on the dinner menu. I didn't really ask if they serve burgers in the morning though, but it was so hot that day I didn't really feel like eating a whole burger. The ventilation inside the restaurant didn't help either :( It was really hot, just happens that we picked one of the hottest days in Vancouver to eat here. No one else complained either. We even saw four big guys sitting in a small booth together, don't know how they did it :O </div>

I had my omelette with potatoes, other two girls had salads, and we all had marble rye toasts. I finished mine and was very full but neither of them quite finished their plates. The portions are pretty good, the eggs might be a little bit on the dry side but overall not bad. We each had our own favourites I guess but being able to try all three was nice :) The service was pretty friendly too despite of the hotness and busyness. I know I would be back again to try the burger sometimes.</div>

It's located on W7th Ave close to Granville Street, like 2 blocks away from his office. For some reasons I have this idea of that area being pretty deserted, but it is really not, lots of foot traffic and cute little restaurants and stores.<br />

My friend told me this place is small and fills up fast so we have to be there early. We got there around noon, just right before the lunch crowd. By the time we got our food, the place was packed and the lineup outside was getting longer and longer. My friend really comes here all the time for lunch, as soon as the waiter saw my friend he said, "veggie sandwich to go?" The service is friendly even when it gets quite busy and I love his french accent, it's very cute :) </div>

Beautiful Saturday morning my friend and I walked around Yaletown once again looking for a place for brunch. Last time we went to Milestones because we both like it and also it was one of the few restaurants with packed patios, which you just know it should be good :P It's funny to see a few patios filled up and others quite empty. People would rather wait for a seat than take a chance on the less busy places. We walked by Glowbal Grill and it was quite busy. I wasn't sure if I wanted to go there at first because even though I know Glowbal restaurants have good food, they are also not very vegetarian friendly as in not a lot of selections. Then I remembered a friend told me their french toast is really good, so I thought I would give it a try. </div>

The thing about brunch is, for me anyways, there's always the sweet choices like waffles, french toasts and such, which I absolutely love, but it's so hard to commit on ordering a meal with just sweet stuff because if it's a meal, I want something salty in it too else it doesn't feel like a meal. I know I know, sorry but it's just in my Asian blood, can't help it... >_< This time though I had some food already earlier so I was confident enough to order something sweet with no regret. I enjoyed it a lot but it was so very sweet even for me. I could not finish the center at the end, I had to give up. My friend had to stop me too because my whole face was turning red from all the sugar. </div>

My friend who always orders vegetarian meals when eating out with me almost had to settle for something non-veggie this time, partly because she's a picky eater but also because like I said, the vegetarian selection is not big. Good thing she felt like having eggs and she likes mushrooms, so she decided to just go with the mushroom frittata and to her surprise and mine too, she really liked it. She even liked the potatoes and salad, which she doesn't usually but she pretty much finished everything with a smile on her face. <span style="background-color: white;">Overall we both enjoyed the food and the service was nice too :)</span><br />

So this is again a while back when the sun was still in hiding. Totally loving the weather now :D I've been to East is East is quite a few times to get their regular hot chai with my friend who is very much hooked on it. This time we're here to try the food out.<br />

When I called to make a reservation for 4 people, only times left were like 430 or after 8, so we went for a very early dinner. There's not a lot of sitting inside, but the atmosphere is great and the service is very friendly.</div>

They have a very good menu of vegetarian/vegan selections. We ordered 2 veggie rice bowls, both saag paneer and 2 veggie roti rolls, one with eggplants and the other I forgot. We all enjoyed the food although the portions weren't very big. My friends had the silk route feast before and recommended it. I know I will be getting that next time I'm back here :P<br />

You know one of those days that you just have that crazy cravings for natto? Or maybe not... Well, for me, it happened a couple months ago and I started searching online for where I can find some natto sushi. I actually had this kind of <a href="http://image.lang-8.com/w0_h0/0ad4653c9b3308247f861975e6beb57647b3bfb0.jpg">natto roll</a> in mind, but it's not like I have much choices, so any natto roll would have to do! Luckily I found Tokyo Thyme in Kerrisdale that offers natto rolls :) I went in the afternoon time around 3 or 4? I can't remember anymore exactly, but they have a break in between lunch and dinner. When I went in they told me they were closed, so I actually went back to my car and waited for it to open again :P</div>

I got two kinds of natto rolls, the Natto special and the regular natto roll. Just a note that there's green onions in the natto rolls, I didn't know until I ate them. I also ordered two tamago nigiri, DX Yam Yam roll and 6pc Futomaki. I ordered take out, the staff was very friendly and the food quality was good, I did enjoy it. They have quite a few vegetarian options on the menu too, so I know I would come back again to try out their other vegetarian items :)</div>

Lunch with a few old coworkers in Kitsilano a while back. It was a pretty nice day so we walked all the way from Broadway to W1st Ave. They are always so thoughtful when I'm joining for lunch, they would always look up where is veggie friendly for me :) </div>

We were all pretty full after. Three guys and one girl, and I'm pretty sure I ate as much as the guys :P I'm trying to remember which one was my favourite but I think I enjoyed all of them, even though some were definitely more flavourful than others. I did remember the one with artichokes slightly more though, it's just because i like artichokes, hehe. I will for sure go back again in the future :)</div>

I think I got the Terimayo this time with veggie dog. Sorry the upper right one is friend's and it's not a veggie dog but he got the combo with flavoured fries and a pop. I do like the fries and the concept of Japadog but I just wish the veggie dog could be more tasty :P It's too bad that it's not the best veggie dog I've had. Next time if I go for a Japadog again, I will probably try the sweet one instead :)</div>

Met up with a friend for lunch in Kitsilano, it was nice enough to walk around and find a place to eat. I don't think my friend knew about the place, we walked to 4th Ave and just happened to pass by Sophie's randomly so we thought we would go in for a try.</div>

Last time we went to Bowen Island was a few years ago in the summer time and we were lucky enough to have the chance to camp at a friend's backyard hill. It was definitely a great experience. This time it's an one day trip to Bowen on a cloudy spring day to visit two other friends who have recently moved there :) They asked us to meeting them for lunch at Artisan Eats. When we got off the ferry, we saw a board on the side of the street that says Artisan Eats so we pulled over and parked at a lot near by. As soon we walked over to the board, we realized it's just an ad board that tells you where the restaurant is located :P So we got back in the car and drove up the hill to Artisan Square where the restaurant really is. After talking to our friends, it turns out the restaurant the ad board was placed outside of is called Tuscany and the owner owns both the Artisan Eats and Tuscany, which explained why the ad board was there. To find out more, visit their <a href="http://www.artisaneats.ca/">website</a>.</div>

We really enjoyed the food there. Yummy and very fresh :) Even though we were stuffed after we managed to finish all the food, we didn't feel any discomfort at all. The service is friendly and it gets packed fast but it's understandable why. I would for sure come back here again the next time I'm back on the island :)</div>

Sometimes things just don't happen unless a series of things happen to line up at the right time. So it just happened that my friend has recently moved into that neighborhood and had time for lunch and I was given an entertainment book with a coupon for Nirvana, so we thought it was a good time to go try it out.<br />

We ordered Palak Paneer and Vegetable Jalfrezi. The curries come with rice. We though the food was decent, but the curries did not have as much flavour as we liked. It was a pretty quiet weekday lunch. I think We were the only two people there for a while, then another table of people came in. Overall it was a nice relaxing lunch with my friend and I'm glad I get to try the restaurant out :)</div>
