    Stumble into @Bare_Burger for Brunch

    Last weekend, I woke up and stumbled into Bare Burger. We usually go to this place for their healthy fries/onion ring combo, delicious sliders and a slew of condiments. I love sauce did you know that?  But this organic burger joint has brunch too!  Who knew!  I was happily surprised and got the chicken and waffles platter with banana fritters and sweet potato fries. It came with paprika butter! YUM.

    Tai had a really yummy burger too that he could customize everything from meat, bun to toppings and ‘done-ness’ of the meat. IMG_6008

    Look!  Still sleepy 🙂

    Signature Fish Tacos: Grilled Pineapple & Jicama Slaw, Avocado, Smoked Chili Sauce

    Some friends and I recently had dinner at Hunters Landing, and although this wasn’t my first dining experience (sshhhh I invite everyone there, because it’s my new favourite place, and it’s close to home!) anyway, although this wasn’t my first dining experience at Hunters Landing and I know what to except, I’m always blown away by how good the food is, and how awesome the service is… always. I love the vibe in there; I feel right at home, and did I mention that the food is great?!

    Phoenix Food Boutique

    My cousin Ricky is visiting me in LA! He said, wow – you are such a pig, you get sooo excited talking about food. And… He is right 🙂 I am so passionate about food, nevermind the calories – what about how it makes you feel! Actually, I am like that about a lot of the things in my life now that I think about it.

    When I first came to LA in June, my cousin Nancy who went to USC took me and my mom to this delicious restaurant called Phoenix in San Gabriel Valley – about 20 mins east of downtown LA. Oooo we had the full dinner for 4 and loved every bit of it. It was so nice to be in the familiar environment of a Chinese restaurant so many miles away from home – with waiters to spoke to us in Cantonese and a menu full of food I ate all my life, as a child and have so many memories attached to them. And… then there was new things I never tried but now I love!

    Last night, I actually found the restaurant again by chance! It’s so yummy. We had duck egg congee, soy sauce chow mein and fried shrimp with candied walnuts. OMG can I please tell you about the shrimp! Delish… Chinese ppl love to eat late, like 10, 11pm it’s called 宵夜 (xiao ye) which means ‘Late Night Snack’. And we strolled in about quarter past ten ^_^

    I don’t usually photograph my food but…

    I BBMed these to my sweetie and he was up late in Toronto fiending for Chinese food and me 🙂


    and then for dessert! I got these to take home. What are they called… ummm Bouut Tsai Go in Chinese.. what in English i don’t know, sugar pudding? Dunno.. it’s divine.

    PS there mochi selection is unreal! There desserts are heavenly!
