If you are looking for an authentic Shanghai food in Vancouver, this restaurant will be the right place for you. Located in Richmond, a Chinese populated area of Vancouver, Shanghai Wonderful restaurant lived up to its name.

Even for a table of four, we waited for almost 45 min.

The hot food like the prawns …

Shabuland Bandar Menjalara

Shabuland Bandar Menjalara
Earlier this month, we ventured to Bandar Menjalara for a shabu-shabu buffet. We dine at Shabuland with a group of blogger friends. Many compare shabu-shabu with steamboat but due to hygiene, we prefer shabu-shabu. Shabu-shabu is a Japanese style hot pot where everyone has their own hot pot.

Shabuland offers shabu-shabu buffet or eat all you can style food for a very reasonable price. They offered a variety of food such as seafood (clams, crabs, scallops, fish noodles, etc), meat (thin slices of beef, pork, lamb), vegetables, noodles and …

Ramen Jinya: Best Ramen in Vancouver

Ramen Jinya: Best Ramen in Vancouver
Vancouver downtown (for the most part) is widely influenced by Japanese food culture. However, there wasn’t any ramen place in Yaletown often due to expensive rent. So I was delighted Jinya Ramen finally opened a shop in Yaletown on Robson street.

It is actually a chain that started in LA, Studio City. Unlike of all of those fake Japanese restaurants that are run by Korean or Chinese, this is actually owned and operated by Japanese.

Personal favorite: Shio Tonkotsu Ramen with HAKATA Pork Premium rich broth …

Asahi Super Dry Joins Carlsberg Malaysia

Asahi Super Dry Joins Carlsberg Malaysia
For those who know me well, I was heavily influenced by JPOP (Japanese POP Culture) during my childhood. I am also in love with Japanese food and my first love with Asahi Super Dry was seven years ago when I went for a road trip to Southern Thailand and I bought my first Asahi Super Dry. It was a 2 liter Asahi Super Dry can and I kept the huge can up to today. (I had problem bringing the can back because it exceeded the …

Yan Can Cook and Jacob Creek Wine Pairing with Chinese Food at Mandarin Oriental Hotel
Remember Yan Can Cook from the 80s? We watched him with his signature phrase something like “Yan Can Cook so do you”. He is still around but with his name “Martin Yan” instead of “Yan can cook”.

A short video of “Yan Can Cook” we found on Youtube. Remember him now?
Last month I was invited to meet Martin Yan in person at Mandarin Oriental Hotel. This was our third time meeting him. We met him first at …
