Stone Grill at The Met : Vancouver Dine Out Experience Version

This Picture by Vivian
I've been pretty busy lately so this is my first restaurant for the Vancouver Dine Out Festive. ( Or last for the year lol ) Stonegrill always have looked pretty cool (all those commercials from my childhood! (*´・v・) ) so I decided to took this chance to try it out. Due to some transportation and school day issues, we decide to go the one at Metrotown just because it's closer. I've heard the interior isn't as wonderful as the original but I'm here for the food mostly and I'm sure the quality should be around the same.  (¬‿¬)  The menu I had was the $28 and is the Ribeye Steak. 

It's located inside the mall, right beside Ardene and across of Sephora. If we didn't somewhat know the mall, we would pass right through it. The menu has a couple of choices. I can't compare to other Dine Outs currently but you're getting a bit more for the same price than normal.  *゚▽゚* The Ribeye Stonegrill was originally $28 which means you're pretty much getting an additional appetizer and dessert!

Dine Out Menu! 
Since I was with a friend, we order different appetizers. Get to try a little bit of everything? 
^▽^

By the way, it wasn't hard to book for a reservation for either the Granville nor the Met. (We had reservations at Granville but cancelled to change for the Met).

[January] IPSY Glam Bag Review: A True Star Will Always Shine!


This is my 2nd Glam Bag from IPSY and I was epping with glee to open this one up!  (ღ˘⌣˘ღ) I got this package just yesterday and the delivery day was much more faster ⊙△⊙ compared to the one during Dec 2012 (though, it could be because of the holiday rush?). 


I was really looking forward to this one because I really wanted a red nail polish and a eyeliner brush since I owned different crease or eye-shadow brushes but not a eyeliner one. I heard the Argan Oil could be used as cuticle oil which could be useful for my nails haven't taken a break from nail polish for like months. My poor nails, they must hate me  ;へ:

Their package is still as neon as ever. At first, I thought it was just the Christmas glam bag had such packaging I suppose not ◕〝◕

Kam Do - Christmas Meal Special Set

What can I say? Kam Do is family restaurant and I go there pretty often at times, so I decided to give a taste of what they offer. They have a wide selection of different food, menus and sets. Depending on the time; breakfast, lunch, afternoon or dinner, their menus change a bit. They offer a good selection, a filling quantity and at a reasonable price! 

The restaurant has a special menu during Christmas time (I think the same special menu is used for New Years too...) and it's super worth it because I packed it and it became my breakfast, lunch and dinner. 
Your main dish + the Ham/Turkey!

Guu Izakaya @ Richmond: Dinner

After all the good things I have been hearing about Guu, I had some pretty high expectations... Of course, it was Guu over at Robson Street that had all the raves but I still expected the food at the Richmond Branch to be just as wonderful. Since I just finished a major project, on the back home from school, my friends and I decided to have a yummy dinner as a celebration.。◕‿◕。Originally, we were going to G-yo instead but we ended up at Aberdeen so Guu it was!  This is dinner, I should remind, which has no lunch special menu. There was a today's special menu and a normal menu. 

The Special Menu looked pretty interesting. It looked as if was written with a marker and consist of some very interesting items. I believe the group of friends I was with loved communicating with the lovely Japanese waitress ( we asked her the funniest questions and even attempted to speak broken Jap... |_・) ) who came to our table. We asked for her recommendation and her thoughts for every little thing. Since she says she loves the "Hotote Chesse", which was a baked scallop & potato with cod roe mayo and cheese dish, we order it along with some other items. (。♥‿♥。)

Hotote Chesse ($5.80) 
Our first dish was the "Hotote Cheese" which  was the highly recommend dish our wonderful waitress recommend. This was one of the most filling dishes. It was nice, creamy and warm for the winter also! It also has scallops mixed in the potatoes. It reminded me of Sheppard's Pie in way cause how soft the  potatoes were. It was one the best dishes that we had that we even order a second plate later on (♡∀♡).
