π The Jerk Sando ($16) – this beastly breast was seasoned with jerk spice and jerk mayo, topped with slaw, pickled reds and tomato. I really wished that I ordered the sando with boneless thigh meat as it probably would’ve been easier to eat; it’s also $2 cheaper! The sando was definitely a two-hander with a third hand to help with napkins and water. Be sure to eat with someone for backup!

Is this place really better than Earnest? Apparently a lot of people think so… Tasting Flight – Mango Coconut Sticky Rice, Honey Butter Almond, HK Milk Tea, Cookies n Cream Monster

I’ve never had kimchi ramen before, so it was an interesting combination. It wasn’t overly spicy or tart – they definitely put thought into balancing the flavours of this rich pork broth. β

Good Taiwanese food is hard to come by in Vancouver. Fortunately, a new spot opened up in the old school Richmond Public Market. Parking’s a b*tch, but it was worth it for this bowl of chewy noodles and some of the most tender pieces of beef and tendon I’ve ever had. β
