Country Coco

September 2, 2019.Reading time 5 minutes.

Country Coco is the latest restaurant to pop up in what I will now refer to as Edmonton’s “Korea Town.” Their menu features Korean Style Chicken and other shareable sides. Here’s a quick post to recap my first visit.

Ramen Misoya

Edmonton’s ramen scene is slowly growing; welcome Ramen Misoya! Now, I’m no ramen connoisseur and I haven’t been to Japan yet… but I know what I like when it comes to ramen!

Gangnam Street Food

February 23, 2019.Reading time 10 minutes.

Owned by the same people of Dookbaeki, Baekjeong BBQ, and the newly opened A-mart grocery store, Gangnam Street Food has joined the little niche of Korean restaurants here in south Edmonton. What sets them apart from their neighbors is their menu of Korean street food. Think quick eats and small bites. Although there have been […]

Photolog: Sushi Wasabi

January 2, 2019.Reading time 4 minutes.

Happy new year! I’m kicking off 2019 with a post to document my adventure at one of Edmonton’s most loved sushi restaurants (at least according to Yelp and a few friends). I have been recommended Sushi Wasabi a few times but was always reluctant to go due to the menu consisting of a lot of […]

Tokyo Noodle Shop – AYCE

December 28, 2018.Reading time 6 minutes.

What used to house Takami sushi is now home to another well-known sushi restaurant: Tokyo Noodle Shop. Tokyo Noodle Shop now has a second location that offers an all you can eat (AYCE) menu, alongside their regular dining menu. Aside from the fact that this location offers a lot of parking space (always a bonus […]

Photolog: Jang YEG (closed)

October 30, 2018.Reading time 8 minutes.

Located on Jasper Ave, Jang is an upscale Korean – Japanese – Western fusion restaurant. “Jang” means sauce in Korean and this new restaurant offers their own unique sauces to blend Western and Asian flavors together. I don’t think there are many YEG restaurants that offer the same blend of cuisines or flavors! I had […]

I’ve been a bit MIA on the blog due to school, work, and life in general, but I’m back with a quick photolog to preview what you can expect at the newest noodle stop in town: Chef Hung Taiwanese Beef Noodle. Disclaimer: I was invited to preview Chef Hung Taiwanese Beef Noodle during their soft […]

Casa Laurel Kitchen (Closed)

July 29, 2018.Reading time 5 minutes.

I am no expert on Filipino food but I think it’s safe to say that Casa Laurel Kitchen does a pretty good job of cooking up a delicious Filipino meal. I recently ventured far north to check out the restaurant and was particularly impressed with the ambience and service. The food was notably good but […]

Photolog: Point Sushi

July 3, 2018.Reading time 4 minutes.

I recently took a mini trip to Calgary and popped into Point Sushi. The owners of Point Sushi own a few other sushi joints in YYC (i.e. Sakana & Sho Sushi Bar and Kitchen) so they presumably know their stuff! What is most exciting about Point Sushi is how they’re the first to showcase bullet […]

Kobe Japanese Bistro

June 4, 2018.Reading time 6 minutes.

Located in the Callingwood community, Kobe Japanese Bistro is situated in a quieter area. I was intrigued by the high ratings for Kobe and decided to finally give them a try. I never thought to venture out to Kobe because 1) it’s quite far for me and 2) I had associated it with KOBE Ramen […]
