Afternoon tea

Were you guys aware that Holt Renfrew has it's own cafe? Located in the corner of Holt Renfrew, Holt Cafe is a tiny cafe that overlooks the Manulife Place. They don't have an exclusive menu but their drink menu captured my attention! 
Toasted Almond Brittle: yup, that's PINK tea! How adorable?! It tastes great with honey!
(forgot what this was called but it was under appetizers also please excuse the quality)
Lobster & Potato Lasagne: definitely recommend this, it is the perfect comfort food! 
Squash Risotto Cakes, my friend and I both agreed that we've tried better risotto, so we wouldn't recommend this dish.



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...

Comfort food

Do you guys remember my very first blog post? If not, I'll remind you guys... My first blgo post was dedicated to Dauphine's because I simply adore this cafe so much! There is no better remedy to a bad day, than food. With that being said, I made a trip down to Dauphine's for an iced Foggy Queen and a late brunch!
