Let me tell you about the night where I almost passed out at dinner because the beef short rib was SO delicious. It was at the new
Vancouver Convention Centre for the
Life Sciences BC Awards Gala and when the entree was served, I was in food heaven. Talk about love at first bite - literally. I love my beef extremely tender and the fattier the better (I know that may gross some people out). It just soaks up the juice so well!! I couldn't stop talking about this dish to everyone that night. I was obsessed with the flavor. Honestly, it was so amazing that I would pay big bucks to eat it again. If you ever get the chance, DO IT UP at VCC.
I must say that 1 perk from my job is that I get to try foods at hotels, convention centres or events that I wouldn't normally get the opportunity to. It's strange when I pull out my camera to take a shot, but I just have to sneak at least 1 to remember the goodness. Above, we got to dine at the
Image Group luncheon provided at the TOPS show, also at the
Vancouver Convention Centre. It was all you can eat featuring mustard crusted lamb and sesame coated salmon. Yum! I don't know what it is, but free bread and butter is always so satisfying.
This recent Indian Food Coma was had on Friday with a few of the gals from work. We took a short stroll to
Salam Bombay on Thurlow street and gabbed over fresh naan bread, butter chicken, tandoori chicken, seafood curry, lamb curry, saag paneer and my favorite, eggplant dip. All you can eat for $15.00 - what a steal!
Special thanks to my fellow foodie AF who brought Chubby Lamb hot pot into my life! This all-you-can-eat hot pot restaurant is a MUST-EAT!!! Offering a crazy variety of foods, including meats, seafood, veggies, noodles, all for $17.95! You can't beat that! Also, make sure to call in for reservations as this place is hot, hot, hot!
Beef it up baby! AF sure loves her meat! LOL. Cooks in 5 seconds, goes down in 1.
They even give you a side table to place all your raw food, so you can cook at your heart's desire! Lots of tofu, greens and fish balls for us!
I had to also post this picture of a newly found food there - the mushroom tofu. It's a round tofu pocket stuffed with tiny mushroom bits! It's soooooo good! My other Phan fave there is the fish tofu ... mmmmm. I love the satay/soya sauce they provide - every bite is dipped in flavor!
And I mustn't forget this special addition. Included in their all-you-can-eat menu are friend onion crepes! I think we ordered 3 of these that night, super crispy and tasty! Also, for $1.00 more, you can also indulge in all-you-can-drink pop! Haha, we were true pigs that night. Even a certain JS wore some especially loose jeans for this (although I don't think it was on purpose, haha).
