Richmond is a haven for Chinese food since so many restaurants and markets are centrally located. One such restaurant is Shi-Art Chinese Cuisine in Richmond Centre. The mall atmosphere adds to the already chaotic Chinese restaurant experience. The fancy red sign outside the entrance and elaborate window display makes the restaurant look more like an art gallery. The huge bling bling chandelier hanging above the middle of the room and white linen covered table and chairs let’s you know you’re about to drop big coin on some fancy shit.

Bubble Tea houses have become about as ubiquitous as Sushi restaurants and Starbucks (okay, it hasn’t quite reached that epidemic level, but its getting there). As the cultural landscape of Vancouver shifts, so too does its culinary tastes. So in addition to the old standbys: 7-11 Slurpees, DQ Blizzards, or plain old Ice Cream Cones — we now have many tasty alternatives to cooling down: Halo Halo, Ice Plates, Asian fruit slushes and of course Bubble Tea. When the temperature starts heading north of 28 degrees, Case and I make our pilgrammage to Little Tea House, one of the original Bubble Tea Houses to open up in Vancouver.

Out on the West Coast, we have some of the finest fish swimming in the sea, just waiting to be caught and devoured by seafood connoisseurs. OK, maybe not waiting to be caught — more like trying to get away. But either way, we have some great fish. The Sandbar Restaurant in Granville Island is known for their fresh seafood and the beautiful patio that perches over the waterfront overlooking False Creek and the shores of the West End.

Okay, hot shot. Pop quiz. You’re in the suburbs on an early summer evening — trapped somewhere between Burnaby and Coquitlam — and your sweet tooth begins to ache. What do you do? What do you do? Well, you could get onto North Road and head towards Cumpari’s, the local Gelato and Coffee shop.

It’s great to see that new restaurants can still open up along West Broadway and I’m glad Peaceful Restaurant is one of them. This space was previously occupied by various Chinese fast food joints. Whenever I pass by, the name of the restaurant is always something different with new opening signs offering 10% discount. I love discounts, but not necessarily for food.
