Soffee Cafe is in a hidden location on 8th Ave.  I found this little gem when I was on my way to my accountant's office.  The door, curtains and decor attracted my attentions then I cannot stop myself going in to check out this place.  I went in to get a lattee to go and check out the afternoon tea sets, my favorite!!!  I told my friend about Soffee immediately then we set a day to go together.  I emailed to make reservation and the tea sets we wanted, quick and easy.  Afternoon tea order confirmation is required so be sure to make reservation.

Beautiful lace curtains, my love!  

604 Just Eat: Japanese Cuisine @ Jinya Ramen Bar

April 29th, 2016

Jinya Ramen Bar @ Kerrisdale

Food:  3.5/5   Service:  3.5/5   Atmosphere:  4/5   Price:  Avg. $30 person

Jinya Ramen @ the heart of Kerrisdale is their second location in Vancouver.  We have been waiting to try this location since they opened, we saw the long queue each time we drove by which driving me big interest to come a bowl of ramen.  The line up was shorter tonight and the waiting time was around 20 minutes which was not bad.  Unlike other ramen joints, Jinya has more tapas and dishes options.  Ramen wise, I really like the texture of the noodles especially the thick ones, chewy and al dente!  For the Tonkotsu broth, the broth is less rich and flavors compared with other joints.  It was a good news for people who likes less heavy and thick broth.

Kinome @ Kitsilano

Kinome is a very authentic Japanese restaurant in Kitsilano area.  We went to Kinome with our good friends who also love to eat a lot!  When I looked at the food pictures again, it was like we ordered pretty much everything from the menu!  All the izakaya dishes were perfect to go with sake.  Dishes were absolutely delicious and the taste was exactly the same what I had in Japan!  They are very fresh and high quality seafood imported from Japan and fresh ingredients sourced locally.  
Good food and wine with GREAT friends made us a wonderful expereince at Kinome.

604 Just Eat: Vietnamese Cuisine @ Pho 37

April 10th, 2016

Pho 37 @ Richmond

Food:  4/5   Service:  3.5/5   Atmosphere:  3./5   Price:  Avg. $11/person

Pho 37 is a small pho joint located at Ironwood mall.  We came here for lunch on Sunday and it was packed with people already.  We wait for 15 minutes so it was not bad.
The broth here is MSG free, I was really looking forward to taste the real richness of the beef soup!  We came here mainly for their signature Pho tuan that we have heard lots of raving reviews.  And I agree that Pho Tuan is a MUST EAT at Pho 37!
