My First Hot Pot Experience And What You Should Know

March 27, 2018 by Suzie the Foodie 8 Comments

It is embarrassing to admit that I never got to try Chinese Hot Pot (very similar to Japanese Shabu-Shabu) during the three and a half years I lived in Vancouver. I would walk by hot pot restaurants over and over and wonder about their deliciousness from Victoria Drive’s sidewalks, mere steps from my apartment. It was […]

The Inspiration Life got much colder one week after my birthday when January 30th rolled around, Mom’s birthday. Jamie could not come but Shannon came with me to Mom’s favourite foodie place on the planet… The Restaurant Mandarin!!! Not only did Mom love the food… Her birthday is always around Chinese New Year. The best part […]

Yesterday I was all about dirty ramen and today I will show you how to take those Chinese leftovers and turn them into egg foo yung fast and easy. In other words, lazy dirty ramen egg foo yung, LOL. But you can do this with almost any sad next-day Chinese food as long as it […]

Revisiting Foodie Bliss: BBQ Pork Buns

November 12, 2014 by Suzie the Foodie 5 Comments

Ever since I lived in Toronto I have loved meat buns. I have tried making them myself, here is my first attempt. They were good but they just are not the same as getting them from a Chinese market. The last time I lived in Vancouver I soon became a vegetarian so they were off limits. […]

Fan’s Chinese Restaurant in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

February 24, 2014 by Suzie the Foodie 2 Comments

I have been wanting to go to Fan’s Chinese Restaurant at 451 Windmill Road in Dartmouth for years! My friend Kelly speaks so fondly of the restaurant and we tried to go a long time ago but it just never panned out. We had a crazy-beautiful bright and warm weekend here and Reg hosted the Star Wars […]

Gung Hay Phat Choy!

February 10, 2013 by Suzie the Foodie 3 Comments

We got this beautiful gift to hang in our front door to celebrate Chinese New Year thanks to T&T Supermarket. We are transitioning into the year of the snake which is great news for us, considering that is Reg’s Chinese astrological sign. We need as much help from the universe as possible and I do […]

January 15, 2013 by Suzie the Foodie 4 Comments

Yesterday I shared in my vlog that I have made many dishes from The Everything Chinese Cookbook that I got over the holidays. Today I am going to share with you the beef chow mien which was excellent. I want to tweak it but Reg said it is perfect the way it is. (I still think I might […]

My Chicken Fried Rice

February 21, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 5 Comments

First, this is in no way an authentic way to make Chinese Chicken Fried Rice. I have tried many recipes and well, this is just the way I prefer to have it. Second, no fancy photos or anything, just sharing the process since how can I do a month of Asian-inspired food and not do […]

Egg Foo Young

February 17, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 9 Comments

Truth be told, I have been feeling under the weather lately and yesterday was the worst. I was incapacitated by a change in the barometric pressure, a giant snowstorm was on its way, and a migraine hit me so badly I lost consciousness for hours on my couch. So what does this have to do […]

Raspberry Blossoms

February 15, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 9 Comments

My experimenting with wonton-inspired desserts continues! This time I wanted to try making wonton cups. I found the idea here. I personally created the raspberry cream filling to go along with it and topped the treat off with a fresh raspberry. I had bought them for my husband for Valentine’s Day, they are his favourite! […]
