New favorite bubble tea place!

Qupcafe, recently opened on Whyte Ave, it is located on the upper level of  the chain of restaurants on 109st. The owners there are very friendly and seemed very eager to cater to us! Not to mention that the bubble tea is very good and they have a pretty interesting menu! Qupcafe is definitely my new favorite bubble tea place. Hopefully they get hyped up so they can extend their hours...

Bubble waffle heaven!

If you live in Vancouver or know of people who live in Vancouver, you might be familiar with Bubble Queen located in Central Richmond. They're known for their chocolate flavored bubble teas but besides that, they have a wide variety of other flavors and my favorite is their bubble waffle menu!
With too many options to choose from, I settled with the Original Milk Tea,
Bueno chocolate
Oreo and Taro bubble waffles, the taro was my favorite!

The One

My visit to The One in Burnaby would make it my first time having Taiwanese food. Taiwanese food consists of deep fried foods mostly so if you're into asian cuisine and deep fried foods, you'll love Taiwanese food! But that isn't what brought me to The One, I heard about their famous "tall slush" and needed to get in on the hype! They have a huge selection of drinks and food so I will definitely be back to try everything...
Lychee
Taro
After drinking half of it, I got the rest packed up... it doesn't even look like I drank any, you really get more than what you paid for which is great!
Their chicken nugget fried rice is a must order!
Deep fried squid

Taste of Edmonton

I took advantage of today's gloomy weather and went down to Taste of Edmonton! Unfortunately, it was really crowded so I didn't get to try as many foods as I wanted (but the foods that I did get to try were really good!)... so I did the next best thing and went to Teapsy afterwards!
Apple Crumble 
Maple Bacon Mac n Cheese
Eva's Waffles, I cannot stress how PERFECT this waffle was, I get Eva's Waffles every time I see their food truck!
Matcha
Takoyaki!
Everyone needs to try this taro slush!!!
Egg Waffles!

Tasty Choice (pt2)

Guess who went back to Tasty Choice?! Yup, yours truly! I was looking forward to getting a crepe on my first trip there but unfortunately, I ate too much savory foods and didn't have any room left in my belly for dessert... But not this time! Of course I had to try another one of their rice dishes and luckily, they had steamed rice rolls this time (they ran out the other time). An order of dumplings and spicy fish balls for the man (not a fan of spicy food because I get teary when I eat it but they tasted pretty good too!)
Ok, now anyone who knows me, knows that I love sweets more than anything and also, I've been craving crepes for the past 3 months... Did I really drive all the way to the South side for a crepe?! YES! Was it worth it? TOTALLY!!!

Tasty Choice (pt1)

Lately, my boyfriend and I have been on a quest to try every bubble tea joint in the city, so on Saturday night, we decided to head down to Tasty Choice, right behind The Melting Pot. It opened till 1:00AM that day and it was definitely worth the long drive because we discovered our new favourite bubble tea place! Originally, I wanted to try their Japanese crepes, but got side tracked by their huge menu of "Hong-Kong street food."
I absolutely adore the interior! there are couches and bar chairs scattered around the cafe and lots of games to choose from!
The appetizers ranged between$4-$6 
My favourite was the mozzarella sticks! The bowl at the bottom was a rice dish with grilled pork, tomato sauce (?), and cheese-- oddly enough, cheese and rice go well together...

Bubbletea

After having dinner at Wing Chicx, we decided to get dessert from Tea Cup 2 Go, located right across the parking lot from our restaurant. The owners were super friendly and didn't seem to mind serving us even though we showed up around closing time. Ok, not going to lie, I was super full from dinner but I saw their japadogs menu and could not resist!
I ordered the Tea Cup Dog ($4.25) this picture doesn't even begin to do it justice! But I don't recommend eating this on a full stomach (what I did lol HUGE mistake).
[From left to right] Lychee bubbletea with tapioca and mango jelly/WARM taro bubble milk with tapioca-- Ok I understand how weird that might sound but if you're a taro fan, or a fan of creamy, sweet, milk, drinks, THIS is the drink for you! Definitely my new favourite drink (YES!! I love it more than I love my london fogs!)
