They say when in doubt, ask the locals, so we parked the rental car and walked into Mary’s British Home, a little English-goodies/grocery store. The sights and smells of …

It’s Day 4. What’s new? Cloudy, dribbly BC-style. But there’s just something about this cloudy-dribbly day. I hate to say it. It’s beautiful. So it’s brunch time. When it’s cold out, I crave for hot. Hankering for some wild Indian spices, we sped off to D.C. (Dosa Corner). Lamb curry X-TRA spicy was highly recommended …

Day 2 in BC. Really? (Pinch, pinch). Rise and “shine”, Beautiful City. 🙂 We woke up to A.M. drizzles. If waking up was hard to do, decision-making was even harder. With only four days to venture around Vancouver, Mr. Chi-Town and I caught ourselves silently going back-and forth with our to-do list. Priorities change once …

Shameless? Indeed! So what? I went for seconds. And on top of that, I took a shot at this lovely, memorable slice of roasted chicken sitting cozily on a messy dinner plate. It’s my plate, so what? The white meat was super moist, super tender. The crispy skin had an interesting savory bits of spices …
Yikes! As it Cooks is 1, folks! Here’s my question for you. How did you or how would you celebrate your blog’s first anniversary? There are a few options. Nothing fancy. Bear in mind, it’s going to be in the Great Plains. Option 1: An inviting piece 0f dark chocolate and a juicy, fluffy raspberry …
Armed with a pair of thick-lensed glasses and a steady hand, my late father would grab a ready-for-the-pot pasture-raised hen or a rooster on certain Sunday mornings. Watching the rather cruel fowl raid, the rest of the hen gang would raise a ruckus! I wasn’t a happy camper. Our home-raised, pretty chicks were my pets. …
After an evening of great galbi, we woke up to a lazy, pre-Valentine’s Day Sunday morning. So what’s next? How about breakfast at Tee’s? No, nothing expensive Think Comfort food + Romantic + Pleasurable + FAST. During the brain-storming session, Mr. Chi-Town and I kept coming back again and again to the one-and-only superstar of …
Hi, I’m back! Want to know what happened to my Get Your Kicks Galbi? They’re all gone… But I have the recipe! I can make it any time I want. You can make it any time you want, too. But before that, shall we get back to the question I last left you with? So which is …
