Ben and I often go to Crystal Mall for lunch after church service as we love the ethnic food in the foodcourt.
We love this Healthy Soyfoods stall on the ground floor at the market place. There is a line most of the time.
The soy pudding came in a huge pot.
The above is the savoury version i.e. gravy with egg and mushroom. This tub is $2. We enjoy every drop of it. The soy pudding was silky smooth. (more…)

While we were in Surrey, Ben decided to go for dessert at Krispy Kreme since we seldom patrol this area.
This is the only Krispy Kreme in Metro Vancouver.
Like all Krispy Kreme locations, customers can view the making of the donuts from a glass enclosed kitchen.
It’s always difficult to choose from so many varieties. I wished they have bite size samplers like the Tim Horton’s donut holes. (more…)
It was a hot spring day. Ben treated me a cool desert on a pre mother’s day celebration.
We went to Jack Frost Dessert Cafe across Richmond Center on No. 3 Road.
We arrived around 6:00PM and there were only two other customers there. When we left, the restaurant is already full house.
We asked the server what is their popular item and he told us it’s the Tiramisu Snowfall. The bowl is topped with a slice of Tiramisu cake. It was good as it is not too sweet. (more…)

A new participant of the South Arm Community Kitchen said she must have something sweet after a meal. There is nothing wrong to treat ourselves with a dessert, just watch the portion size.

The South Arm Kitchen made Chocolate Avocado Mousse for dessert.
Minoo had trouble finding avocado that is ripe enough for this recipe. Hence, the Chocoloate Avocado Mousse was a bit gritty and not smooth. But it still taste good.

After dinner, we walked over to the Central at Garden City to do some exploration on what’s new there.
Then we returned to Alexandra Road to look for a dessert place. We ended up at Scorpio’s M Dessert which opens from 3PM to midnight.
The interior looks nice with the high back chairs.
Ben just wanted a drink from the thirstiness he experienced from Midam Cafe. He had a Mango Soda which he said helps to quench his thirst. (more…)
The South Arm Community Kitchen made a Hawaiian Coconut Pudding for dessert.
The addition of shredded coconut and chopped walnuts added a nice crunchy texture to the smooth pudding.
